What is Blockfolio?
Blockfolio who launched in 2014, is a well-known place where over 6 million people currently track their cryptocurrency portfolios. This is all done via a mobile app which is available from the App Store or Google Play.
Users can track the price of various cryptos and the performance of their holdings whilst getting the latest news and team updates.
Since their acquisition with FTX, Blockfolio has also added trading to their app. Where you can trade crypto and tokenized stocks with zero fees. Not only that, but you’ll earn a free coin for every trade over $10.
Blockfolio Acquired by FTX
In August 2020, Blockfolio announced that they were joining forces with FTX as part of a $150 million deal. At the time they also hinted at launching a retail trading experience, powered by FTX. True to their word, in January 2021, Blockfolio released an update to including “Trading” giving users the ability to trade crypto and stocks at zero fees.
Who are FTX?
FTX launched in 2019 and are a Hong Kong-based cryptocurrency derivatives exchange which they state was built by traders, for traders. FTX users can trade in a wide variety of markets which include spot, futures, stocks, leveraged tokens, volatility, prediction and FIAT.
Plus they have their own FTT exchange token. You receive lower trading fees for holding FTT on FTX. Plus you can use FTT as collateral for all futures on FTX, meaning you can hold your capital on FTX in FTT and still trade with it.
