How we chose these picks

1.We compare publicly listed exchanges in CIR’s directory with documented support for the product or feature covered here.
2.Each exchange has a dated official product source or an active staking offer recorded by CIR. Availability is checked for the specific product and, on regional lists, the relevant country or region.
3.Exchanges with higher CIR scores rank first. Exchanges with the same score are listed alphabetically.
4.Each list compares at least two exchanges. Product and fee sources checked more than 180 days ago are left out until reviewed again. Verify product terms.

Buying a coin and staking it are different actions

A spot purchase does not automatically enroll the coin in staking. Check the specific staking offer, reward commission, withdrawal terms and eligible region before moving funds.

Only active, current staking offers qualify here. Lending, savings and generic asset tags do not establish staking support. Rates help compare the products; CIR score sets the ranking order.

Frequently asked questions

Does every account have access to these features?

No. Country, state, verification and account restrictions can apply. The source beside each exchange explains the documented support; confirm availability in your own account.

Why are some exchanges missing?

CIR includes only exchanges in its exchange directory that are publicly listed and have current evidence for this comparison. Missing or expired evidence excludes an exchange rather than implying that its fees are zero or that a feature is unsupported.
