It does make sense that the tables are for Monero-exclusive applications. Loaded GUI's lead to user confusion and thus errors.

Think absolute beginner: "I installed that secure app you recommended and bought and happily transacted and now you say that wasn't secure?!"

According to my recent test, the premium was 4.7 percent compared to spot rates, hence their pricing is not competitive and Bitrefill remains without a serious contestant. There you'd only pay the ~0.5% fee for going through an instant exchange in order to have your XMR arrive as BTC.

EDIT: Now, a day later, I did another test and got percentages from 1.8 - 2.0 % which is much more reasonable.

Hint: To quickly get the hidden fees of any purchase, execute units like this: ./units.sh '<xmr-cost-at-checkout> XMR' '<EUR|USD|...>' or ./units.sh '<xmr-cost-at-checkout> XMR / <value-in-fiat> <EUR|USD|...>' '%' for the total percentage asked.

Adding the image seems to have removed the original URL ... while maintaining the link's description. I suspect a bug (@admin?).

In any case, I've added an explicit link at the end of the original post.

For those seeking to trade more efficiently on the platform, I just published a tool for updating TradeOgre-orders from the command line: Terminal-Interface to TradeOgre

 

A couple of months ago, rumors about TradeOgre blocking withdrawals for an unrelated crypto asset circulated.

I began avoiding the exchange, but when the other day a user urged to trade on the platform, I decided to publish this tool regardless. It might prove useful to some people in the community.

OGRE is a terminal interface, both console and CLI, optimized for swing-trading XMR<->BTC on TradeOgre.

It is similar in use to XMRPC, but instead of managing your Monero RPC, you manage your orders on said platform.

Please refer to the corresponding section on xmr.zone.
