Comment by Reviewer
"OKX is a top pick for crypto traders looking for emerging coins and crypto projects to invest in. Traders can also make use of the broker's copy trading service and automated bots." "Gate.io will attract experienced traders looking for diverse crypto opportunities, NFTs and favorable trading fees. However we don't consider this exchange secure with little to no regulatory scrutiny."
