CoinCompanions, hereby our new Buzz of March full of crypto news. None of it matters of course, when looking at the Corona pandemic. It is slowly closing our world, with for a small percentage death as result. Every one, is one too many. Therefore, please, everybody look out for yourself, but don’t be selfish. Stay safe at home as much as possible, keep 1,5 meters distance from each other and be kind! We are in this together!

In our Buzz of February we mentioned that it has been quiet at CoinCompare for a couple reasons. Unfortunately, the Corona crisis isn’t making it easier and with everything else that is going on it shall remain like that for a while. Some developments continue, but the absence is mostly on social media. Besides that, as of next month the name ‘Best Deal Broker’ shall change to ‘Best Deal Provider’. The reason to do so is because we do not only support brokers, but also exchanges. This will be implemented throughout the whole website with exceptions for previous Buzz items.
Yeah buddy! Last week we silently launched 
our brand new service called, CoinWall. CoinWall is, besides our comparison service, an overview of all the crypto that our supported brokers and exchanges have to offer. As of writing CoinWall supports 335 different cryptocoins and tokens. The one page overview shows the available crypto sorted on marketcap, cheapest buy price incl. provider, best sell price incl. provider and the 24h change in percentages. To be clear, CoinWall shall show the corresponding provider based on the best price for buy and sell.
Please, keep in mind that CoinWall is still in a Beta phase. There is still some learning and work to be done on some activities, as for example the 24h up/down percentages. Enjoy it and if you have any remarks, feel free to contact us via our form here.
A couple notable developments and happenings:
India lifts ban on cryptocurrency trading

‘The crypto king is on fire.’ as investors look for a new safe haven
Crypto listings and top 5 ups and downs
Finally, a lot of adding and removing activity. We track all listings and delistings actively, not just the comparable ones. But first. We delisted DigixDAO (DGD) from both our services, because the crypto shall cease to exist. See our latest tweet of the 27th of March with sources. We expect that our supported providers will follow up shortly. In overall Bitqist has done some listings and Coinmerce and Knaken some delistings.
FYI, the majority of the delistings at the providers are executed once a crypto doesn’t show a lot liquidity and volume.
Let’s check out the overview below of which crypto’s have been listed and delisted at our supported providers last month.

Here are the best deal brokers of the month March. Please read the disclaimer below the trophy to understand how the best deal broker is determined. 16 providers with 189 comparable prices are monitored to come to the following result:
Bitladon! They are back at it! Bitladon kicked Bitqist from the number three position with 54 entries and a 14.25% share. To compare, Bitqist had 44 entries and a 11.64% share. Congratulations Bitladon 
! Shall Bitladon remain the number 3 position in April? Competition is luring, as on the 26st of March Bitqist has temporarily discounted their fee on all buy and sell transactions! See our tweet announcement here.
Bitvavo! Not a big change. Bitvavo only had 1 entry more than in February, but still keeping the silver shiny 
with 105 entries and a 27.77% share. Will they keep the number 2 spot? Let’s see at the end of April.
Coinmerce! You want the best deals, then Coinmerce is the place to be. With 148 entries and 39.15% share they are still the undisputed Best Deal Broker champion 
. In compare to February they gained a 3.89% share 
. Keep it up!
The best deal provider of the month is determined independently with the average of cumulating snapshots of 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 price comparison page.
