A directory of Bitcoin Exchanges servicing the world’s 20 largest economies, as well as several international options (serving many countries) are now available on Bitcoin.org.
Helping People Interested in Bitcoin, Get Bitcoin
This new addition to the site:
- Links to the
Find an Exchange
button on the Getting Started page and helps many of the new people entering the Bitcoin ecosystem via Bitcoin.org, get bitcoin. - Improves SEO for Bitcoin.org, because the site can now potentially rank very well for “Bitcoin Exchange” as well as other key phrases that include country names that are contained on the page (i.e. Bitcoin Exchange China, Bitcoin Exchange India, etc.).
- Has unique anchor links for each country that people can share on social media that will allow others to find the bitcoin exchanges that are available for their specific country.
- Allows Bitcoin.org to focus the wallets page on wallets that allow people to maintain full control over their funds (Resolving issue #1109, because custodial wallets that provide exchange services can be moved off of the wallets page to this new page).
- Is also accessible via the Resources
dropdown
menu.

Use Discretion when Choosing an Exchange
As noted in the above screen shot, Bitcoin Exchanges provide varying degrees of safety, security, privacy, and control over your funds and information. Perform your own due diligence and choose a wallet where you will keep your bitcoin before selecting an exchange.
