Crypto.com Derivatives
Crypto.com
Crypto.com's derivatives arm stands out for its dual regulation, holding both a US CFTC licence and an EU MiCA registration, alongside very low maker fees. On the downside, maximum leverage is conservative versus rivals and spot fees are not competitive.

Verdict
The A is built on rare dual regulation — a US CFTC license and EU MiCA — and on maker fees among the lowest in the sector (0.025%), a solid mix for the average user. The score does not climb higher because the 50x maximum leverage is conservative versus rivals (good for risk, a limit for the trader) and spot fees are uncompetitive.
On this lens the picture flips: Crypto.com is custodial, full-KYC and carries the lowest privacy score in the group, so its strength — adherence to CFTC and MiCA — is exactly what the crypto-native avoids. Dual licensing means dual identification and no self-custody.
