i use gemini and its fee is .25% base and i think you can get it lowered if you sell and buy at certain percentages of each other.

$500 fee that seems excessive

What are you trying to do? If you have a Coinbase account then you are registered at GDAX. Buy/sell @ GDAX, if you make the market there's no fee. Otherwise fee is much smaller than Coinbase.

Gemini. Much better fees than coinbase.

What are the safest exchanges for crypto with the lowest fees right now? Trying to google it is worthless, in the first list I saw coinbase at the top so I know that isn't accurate

open a coinbase account, deposit usd, send it to GDAX (Coinbases trading platform (same login and password)). The Fee to buy at market price is .0.25% and there is no fee if you set a limit buy because you'd be making the market. Thats usually what I do, haven't paid a fee in a while.

ok thanks

I already have a coinbase. Sent about 5 bitcoin through there earlier this year that I lost at the books I sent to, but I'm sure there are guys here with some true horror stories

I realized I may have had some balances on accounts I hadn't been to for awhile so I decided to log in to all of them which I hadn't done for awhile. Turns out I had some leftovers from early this year on my blockchain account that I didn't bother with. It's worth over $500 now
