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.

Use the correct USDC asset and network

Confirm native USDC on Base at both ends. A matching ticker does not establish that the receiving address supports the same network or token contract.

Review the withdrawal minimum and live network charge. Moving tokens to self-custody changes who controls the keys and may require a separate gas balance for later transactions.

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.
