Exchange Tokens

Exchange tokens are the new fad within the dividend crypto market especially with so many new exchanges opening every month. Dividends paid from exchanges come from the fees the trader pays when booking an order. A percentage of the trading fee is then split with the token holders on a daily, weekly or monthly basis.

Kucoin (KCS)

Kucoin, a Hong Kong based exchange, are one of the originators of the dividends exchange model token when they introduced it on their platform in 2017.

The dividend payments to investors are generated by sharing 50% of exchange transaction fees with the token holders. Due to the nature of how the bonus is derived, investors will see higher payouts if the trading volumes & users increase which is almost guaranteed as cryptocurrency becomes more mainstream.

To ensure you receive the bonus payments you need to hold a minimum of six Kucoin shares (KCS) tokens and ensure that the tokens are left on the exchange.

BitMax (BTMX)

BitMax (BTMX) is a Singapore based exchange registered in July 2018. BitMax shares 80% of net transaction fee revenues with token holders. At present the APR for investors is between the 35-50% rate which far outshines most saving accounts and other similar tokens.

Coss Token (COSS)

Coss.io is a decentralized exchange which has been growing at a rapid rate. Similar to Kucoin the exchange shares 50% of trading fees with holders of the token. The key difference is that the COSS dividends are paid in the form of how the fee was paid. This means if some fees were paid in ETH or BTC then you would receive the dividend in these cryptocurrencies.

Bibox Token (BIX)

Bibox is a chinese exchange and has already made a mark in the industry, generating over 1 billion trades in a day. To receive the weekly dividends which are paid in the form of Ethereum tokens, you will need to purchase and lock a minimum of 500 BIX tokens on the exchange and then every Friday you will get a dividend payment just in time for the weekend.

Staking Tokens (POS)

NEO, formally called Antshares and Antcoin, is a Chinese based smart contract token similar to Ethereum that allows you to "stake" your NEO in order to receive a payout in GAS. Please make sure that the wallet where you stake your NEO enables GAS payouts, a number of wallets we have used in the past have discretely kept the payouts to themselves. Use the calculator below to get an idea of the NEO payouts you could receive.
