Great news! Recently we’ve added a new broker on CoinCompare, called Bitqist. It is the third largest broker from the Netherlands, based on the total variety of crypto they offer. 144 currently and it is not stopping there. Due to the addition of Bitqist we’ve added comparable prices of Bitcoin Gold, Chiliz, Monetha, Skycoin and much more. Compare them all on our unique one-page overview.
As a repercussion due to recent delistings of Bitladon, which includes 2GIVE (2GIVE), we decided to remove the info page of 2GIVE from our website. None of the brokers on CoinCompare offer 2GIVE anymore which makes the info obsolete.
Last month we encountered loading issues due to the charts in the tiles on our homepage. All has been resolved and they are back online 
!
We shall continue with updating the info pages of the brokers, as announced in our previous buzz.
Please, keep in mind that some topics take longer than others as we are a small dedicated team that puts the available spare time into the website. All to make sure you know where to be for the best crypto deal.
Pronounced as Bitkwist, is one of the latest known crypto brokers in the Netherlands. Their business is operative in the city Rotterdam with having 2-10 employees. The company Bitqist B.V. has been founded in 2018, but their website went live in 2017 as an alternative to Coinmarketcap. In a later stadium more and more functionalities were added to compete with other brokers in the Netherlands. The website has excellent responsiveness which makes it also ideal for mobile usage 
. Save the webpage on your mobile’s or tablet’s home screen and you wouldn’t even notice that it isn’t an app.
Their account interface, dashboard and design is one of the most easy-to-use for buying, selling and storing crypto and doing so securely. It even looks a little bit as Coinmarketcap, as being accessible, compact and yet extensive. If you are familiar with Coinmarketcap, than going through Bitqist is like a walk in the park.
Fun fact! Did you know that the company is located in the same street as their competitor LiteBit?
As quoted from the movies: “keep your friends close, but your enemies closer.” Also Bitladon and Coinmerce are direct broker competitors, besides LiteBit.

And as final, the announcement of CoinCompare’s best deal broker of the month. Please read the disclaimer below the trophy to understand how the best deal broker is determined. We normally don’t announce which broker has the fourth place. But, as the number 4 and 3 are close to each other we would like to share the competition between the two. Here are the winners of October:
#4: Bitqist! New addition to CoinCompare and already being a good competitor for the #3 position. With 41 entries and a 10.56% share breathing Bitladon in the neck. Do they have the ingredients to differentiate from their competitors?
#3: Bitladon! Focusing on the stablecoins, providing interest on DAI, app coming up and more positive news is coming from the broker from Aalsmeer. But do they have enough to be in front of Bitqist? Still on the bronze spot with having 50 entries and a 12,88% share in compare to September. Resulting in a -2.32% share, mostly because of the additional broker.
#2: Bitvavo! Coinmarketcap listing, new design, new partnership and integration of CryptoHopper on the exchange. What more to come to the dutch exchange? We hope for more listings 
. Silver for September, also is silver in October. Again a stable month for Bitvavo with almost having the exact amount as in September. From 103 to 105 entries and a 27.06% share, results in -2,36% because of an additional broker, but it is still looking promising.
#1: Coinmerce! A month away from a record streak of being the best deal broker of the year 
! Recently added a higher secured verification process, a new chatbot called Amber, an a-to-z guide to perform trades on their platform and more. October is stable, where September had 143 entries and a 40.85% share, they now have 142 entries and a 36,59% share. A lower share (-4,26%) because of an additional broker. Congratulations Coinmerce, with again being the Best Deal Broker on CoinCompare!
The best deal provider of the month is determined independently with the average of cumulating buy and sell prices of all the best deals that are shown on our homepage. Logically, the larger the variety of crypto offered, the most chance of becoming the winner. In the end it is still the price of the crypto that matters as it has to be comparable. Discounts in Tiers and VIP levels are not included in the calculation. As deals change several times a day, due to the volatility of prices, the broker with the best deal can therefore change as well. Due to that fluctuation we take two snapshots per day to the determine the broker for that day with the most entries on our main page of our website.
