After a relatively slow 2018 and the beginning of 2019, the second half of 2019 has seen some major growth in the bitcoin market. Nearly every major asset is experiencing growth and making investors a lot of money. Many assets are up around 100% or more over the last 12 months, silencing some of the crypto critics out there.
As a result, there is a renewed interest in the crypto space, so more and more people are looking to get involved. People are buying, trading and selling all different types of cryptocurrencies, but there is no doubt that Bitcoin is still king. It still has the largest market cap, has grown nearly 100% since last July and shows no signs of slowing down.
In addition to more people getting involved in the market, the way they are getting involved is also changing a little. While many still like to buy, trade and sell their cryptocurrency at home from a desktop computer, the changes are coming. People want the ability to use a cryptocurrency exchange on the go, without having to be stuck to their desk. Most of us are very busy and love the idea of being able to make trades or check out portfolios while we’re out and about.
Thankfully, there are many exchanges (both new and old), that offer mobile app versions of their exchanges. This shift into the mainstream for crypto has created a new market for exchanges to create and offer mobile experiences so you can keep up-to-date even when you’re away from your computer.
But with so many different apps and mobile experiences, which of these exchanges are the best? If you want to manage your portfolio successfully and to be able to make trades quickly at reasonable rates, you need to know which exchange apps are worth your time and which are not.
Without any further ado, this article is going to take a look at some of the best apps out there for buying, selling and trading Bitcoin and other types of cryptocurrency.
Coinbase
Coinbase is one of the premier and most popular cryptocurrency exchanges on the market. Since they were founded in 2012, the California-based exchange has grown to serve dozens of countries all around the world.

You can track your portfolio with ease, and the app can even send you price alerts based on the crypto you invest, or want to invest in. The app can be used around the world and supports nearly a dozen languages including English, Russian, Portuguese and Chinese. The app is also incredibly secure and allows you to check the history of your transactions as well as how much crypto or fiat currency you have. Also, if you lose your phone, don’t worry, the app allows you to disable access remotely so your account won’t be compromised.
CEX.IO

Binance
In terms of trading volume, Binance is among the largest cryptocurrency exchanges on the planet. The Chinese exchange offers support for Bitcoin and well over 100 other altcoins. In addition to a great desktop platform, Binance also offers a mobile application that rivals any in the crypto space. No matter where you are, the app lets you keep track of the prices of assets, as well as make trades right from your device. It is one of the most popular apps, both because of its user experience and the large number of assets it supports, a number which is always growing, as well. Deposits and withdrawals are also lightning quick within the app, thanks to the high liquidity of Binance. Whether you want to actually trade with the app, or just use it to monitor prices and use it as a tracking tool, Binance is a good solution for you and should be considered.
In conclusion, hopefully this article has helped you identify the best Bitcoin exchange apps to use on your mobile devices. Of course, be sure to do your own independent research before choosing which to work with.
