The story

Founded in 2023, Bitbase positioned itself as a professional-grade CEX differentiated by a disciplined approach to derivatives trading — explicitly rejecting ultra-high leverage and a casino-like atmosphere. The exchange operates with regional teams in Hong Kong, Singapore, and Dubai, targeting institutional clients and advanced retail participants. Its fiat gateway (Quick Buy) is powered by third-party compliant payment API routing, supporting card and alternative payment methods.
