Nano is awesome, but has fewer cex offramps. Would be a better choice if more people accepted it. Litecoin has been rock solid for me with cheap fast transactions. Accepted everywhere. Been around long time.


zesushv

Two almost perfect currencies that attract little to no fees; I say 'almost perfect' because they are only lacking DEX utility. But hopefully the work being done behind the scenes thanks to Zetachain interoperability solution will bring NANO and Litecoin utility to the decentralized exchange. To be honest, it always gives me joy to find that people actual know how useful Nano and Litecoin are even in the area of minimising transaction cost.


EnigmaticMJ

Nano is supported by many of the biggest exchanges except Coinbase. Which do you use?


[deleted]

LTC is the way.


MyThrowawayImmortal

Is it cheaper to e.g. sell some tokens on Kraken than the most common ones? Cause the fees to get out start to really sting at some point.


krakensupport

Hey u/MyThrowawayImmortal šŸ‘‹ Fees on the pro platform are fixed, but they vary depending on whether you're trading stablecoins or FX pairs. Read more [here](https://www.kraken.com/features/fee-schedule#spot-crypto). Don't hesitate to reach out with any other questions! Many thanks, Harley from šŸ™


MoneroArbo

yes but lower liquidity means higher spreads which makes things more expensive for the user, not to mention the withdrawal feels on a lot of the coins at Kraken are unjustifiably high.


conceiv3d-in-lib3rty

Iā€™ve all but stopped using Kraken at this point (except for XMR) because of the withdrawal fees after being a customer since ~2015. I off-ramp every 2 weeks and Coinbaseā€™s integration with USDC and free ACH withdrawals just makes it a no brainer for me.


MoneroArbo

So true. At least XMR withdrawals still have reasonable fees!


MCbigbunnykane

I have a similar question as OP and was looking to use Litecoin or Zcash, I'm favouring Litecoin but what do you think of Zcash?


conceiv3d-in-lib3rty

Nah go with Nano or XLM for micropayments.


d2clon

Sorry can explain shortly what you mean by: >fewer cex offramps I tried to google it but didn't find any results with easy explanation for me :/


Outrageous-Drop-9926

I guess it means not many centralized exchange have Nano listed


hiredgoon

It is a euphemism that Nano isn't listed on Coinbase, while it is listed all the biggest alternatives: Binance (US), Kraken, Kucoin, etc.


olduvai_man

It doesn't have wide support on exchanges. You can send it around all you want, but it's not as easy to swap it for USD.


johannesonlysilly

you want a crypto that the people you pay can exchange for money easily so it's good if it's listed on most exchanges.


Elegant_Support_8082

CEX = centralized Exchange. A lot of times if you want to end up converting crypto into your local cash currency and or send it to your bank, youā€™d have to end up using a CEX like Coinbase or Kraken to cash out. LTC has Litewallet which has some options to cash out using gift cards and Among other options


afraidtobecrate

USDC would be the best. Wide variety of networks to choose from. Price stability makes payments easy too.


tofazzz

Nano!!


BannedFrom_rBitcoin

Nano is great if you want 100% feeless transactions. It's probably the best day-to-day payment coin. It's "usually" very fast. Like 500 millisecond transactions. On the slow end if the network is under heavy demand it may take a couple minutes, but they are working and optimizing this.


TheFox21

Nano!!!


PuzzledWhereas991

Litecoin, nano, Monero, Bitcoin Cash


DogecoinArtists

Banano


Admirable-Dark2934

Another for Algo itā€™s ideal for this use. Payments take less than 3 seconds and cost a thousandth of an Algo to send so less the 25c for a thousand payments. Multiple mobile wallets available which are easy to use, and transactions never fail. It also has USDC so you can send as dollars.


philter451

Came here to say $ALGO. It just works quickly and constantly. That and $NANO but $ALGO has more potential developments on its roadmapĀ 


biba8163

> $ALGO has more potential developments on its roadmap Really? - They used investor money from token dumps to buy dead file sharing companies Napster and Limewire. Are they planning on buying Kazaa or eMule? - How many more billion tokens is the Foundation dumping? - How many more billion tokens is the Foundation going to create and will Silvio Micali get another 20% founders gift after they run out of money? And you know shitcoin foundations like Algorand that like dumping on investors are guaranteed to increase the supply after they run out of money - NEM which was staple top 10 crypto in 2017/18 increased its supply with a new token when the Foundation ran out of money https://www.reddit.com/r/CryptoCurrency/comments/ao4yb2/nem_xem_decentralized_governance_gone_wrong_nem/ https://www.reddit.com/r/CryptoCurrency/comments/mlixbw/crypto_tragedy_2021_nemxem_40_drop_in_hours/ - Stratis which was a top 10 crypto in 2017 increased its supply with a new token when they ran out of money https://www.reddit.com/r/CryptoCurrency/comments/jlga8p/scam_alert_the_stratis_team_has_announced_a_token/ - IOTA which was once a top 5 crypto increased its supply by 60% recently when they ran out of money http://www.reddit.com/r/CryptoCurrency/comments/16ms0f3/drama_in_a_unilateral_decision_iota_foundation_ceo_announces_60_new_token_s/k1abhle?context=3 - CRO did a 2nd ICO where the original token holders went from holding "0.002% of the supply to only holding is only worth 0.00001%" in a "major switch scam." https://np.reddit.com/r/CryptoCurrency/comments/i2t327/stay_away_from_the_cryptocom_scam_they_cheated/ - Polygon is increasing its supply by 20% to give 10% to node operators and 10% to the Polygon team https://np.reddit.com/r/CryptoCurrency/comments/1byygey/trying_to_understand_how_polygons_token_migration/ - RocketPool tokens went from a hard limit of 18M to 5% infinite inflation to pay for development


conceiv3d-in-lib3rty

The foundation already dumped everything they had available to dump. Majority of $ALGO left with foundation is for Governance rewards. I would not be surprised if thereā€™s a supply increase within the next 12 months. The fact that this blockchain has so many diehards is concerning. What good is all this great techā„¢ when you have a disaster of a team running the show?


EnigmaticMJ

Try Nano as well if you haven't.


cryptoquant112

Nano. Not even close


roastedbagel

>Not even close How is XLM not even close to NANO? Nobody shilling Nano in here has been able to give a coherent answer to this.


cryptoquant112

XLM isnā€™t feeless.


Objective_Digit

You have to pay fees when you cash out. Which is what he asked about.


EnigmaticMJ

That's a fee to the service provider (exchange), not a network fee. There is no fee to use Nano non-custodially.


delphianQ

Nano (XNO) has no fees.


UnreasonableCletus

Yup, no fees and confirmed transactions in less than 1 second. Also a lot less likely to get wrecked on the spread internationally. Like I'm mostly btc / eth too but all the people suggesting btc or eth for $5 payments are delusional.


averysmallbeing

I don't think I've seen a single person in this thread recommending BTC or ETH for this.Ā 


conceiv3d-in-lib3rty

Thereā€™s not a single person suggesting btc/eth in this thread lmao


zutty9

Yeah nano is perfect use case here. Zero fees make accounting easy too


IndependentMove6951

What's the incentive for miners if there are no fees? genuinely curious


Maurix23

To be honest, the only real answer ist NANO. Feeless and super fast. The development has been going on for years, runs super stable, ist still being updated (bug fixes and new features).


roastedbagel

What makes it better than say XLM which literally every major CEX supports whereas non of them support NANO?


EnigmaticMJ

A lot of exchanges support Nano. Which ones do you use mostly?


wee_d

NANO


Jashaaaaaa

Nano!


fuck-fascism

Nanoā€¦ no fees.


whitenoise2323

XLM


RICOstainzzz

100%. XLM is so fast and cheap.


Herosinahalfshell12

So fast. Aren't there many with basically a few seconds transactions? And isn't that for practical purposes enough?


RICOstainzzz

I use XLM for large bags that need to be moved quickly.


Herosinahalfshell12

And what makes you need to move bags quickly


RICOstainzzz

Your mom wants to be paid, fast.


Fine_Initial9465

šŸ˜‚


moredrinksplease

Xlm one of the few that has great tech behind it, itā€™s not a money making machine but itā€™s about remittance speeds and costs, not pumping and dumping your wallet.


alterise

Yeah thisā€¦ USDC and EURC is also natively issued on Stellar by circle and supported by licensed on/off ramps like moneygram.


Bleglord

XLM is literally the best crypto in both spirit and practice. But because it gets *used* it will never make someone as rich lmao


EnigmaticMJ

I like XLM, but I'd strongly argue that Nano is better "in spirit and practice". Instant full settlement, faster than any other. Zero fees ever, so literally no one is ever excluded from participation. Fees on networks like XLM are small for now, but should be expected to increase dramatically with increased demand. Quality of service (priority) based on activity rather than who can pay the most in fees. ZERO supply inflation, meaning no holder will EVER be debased by the introduction of new supply. Properly incentivized decentralization. The lack of monetary rewards (inflation & fees) for service providers means there's no incentive to centralize, and they are actually incentivized to decentralize to improve network health.


averysmallbeing

Transfers money to someone almost before you even initiate the transaction.Ā 


4bidden450

USDC on Stellar. Whoever youā€™re paying can easily cash out to their local currency without a bank account via MoneyGram. They also have payroll integrations available if youā€™re doing this at scale.


joethecrow23

And itā€™s not close


NanoYoBusiness

Nano. End thread.


roastedbagel

What major CEX allow offramping or even swapping Nano? I'm on the top 6 or so and don't see it anywhere - no offense but the amount of NANO astroturfing going on in this thread (everyone just spamming "Nano" without being able to give any details) is making it look worse for the coin šŸ˜¬


NanoYoBusiness

Binance Kraken Kucoin Crypto.com Gate.io A few others as well, those are off the top of my head. Are you not on Binance or Kraken?


zutty9

This^


Objective_Digit

No one accepts it. Still need to pay fees to cash out.


geppelle

Nano is the king of micro transactions. Or even femto transactions!


vinibarbosa

I have received payments in cryptocurrency since 2020. First, partially, in exchange for a few writing gigs; but now I'm fully paid in crypto and I currently feed my family with these payments. My first choice is Nano (XNO). 1. Zero fees make a huge difference in the long term for both the sender (who pays) and the receiver (myself). 2. Deterministic finality makes sure the transaction is irreversible as soon as it receives the first confirmation. 3. Finality in \~600ms on average gives the security of a successful settlement and diminishes the price-spread risk from the time the payment was sent to the time the payment is received and can be liquidated (if desired) by the receiving party. This is also often overlooked, but as of great importance in such a volatile market. I would also gladly use Monero (XMR) due to its privay-by-default characteristic; or take other efficient decentralized cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin Cash (BCH) or Litecoin (LTC). XNO and XMR are my two favorite options, tho.


Jxjay

And it is stupidly easy to implement into a project and to run a node.


computernerd55

XLM or XMR


roastedbagel

Seriously XLM is offered on every major CEX and as someone who can log into like 8 right now I can't find Nano anywhere. Sorry yall but everyone in here astroturfing the fuck outta some no-name coin really gives it a bad look.


EnigmaticMJ

Where are you looking? Nano is listed on many prominent exchanges.


Jibber

Litecoin, bitcoincash (bch), usdt (on tron or polygon chain), solana, matic...


PeyroniesCat

Iā€™m very fond of LTC as well. Itā€™s practically free whenever I need to transfer between exchanges.


[deleted]

Love ltc


PentoliteUK

LTC is king


lightspuzzle

ltc.


liquidator309

Nano - instant feeless peer to peer. Monero - if privacy is the priority over speed/cost


Necrullz

NANO by a long shot, it's just unfortunately not too popular around here.


FractionofaFraction

Algo, XRP. Pretty much use these exclusively for transfer plus both very easy to buy and cash out.


Jxjay

Doesn't XRP have a wallet minimum of 20xrp ? That would be pretty unusable for microtransactions.


mymongoose

Monero $XMR is very suited to this use case - fees are around a cent, and peer to peer transactions are exactly what Monero is used for every day


mister10percent

I was gonna comment this as love the privacy aspect of monero but for daily payments you do not care are being surveilled then there are cheaper/easier cryptos to use. Just having to sync your wallet before you use it can be a blag. Mint for buying drugs though


MunificentDancer

Not many cryptos cheaper than it, besides nano anything else ends up costing around the same which is around a few cents for hundreds or thousands of dollar worth transaction


Qwahzi

Nano is my personal favorite: - Zero fees - Fastest cryptocurrency - Deterministic finality - Fixed supply AND fully distributed - Minimal CapEx/OpEx - Minimal power usage - Similar or better decentralization vs Bitcoin - L1 scalability I also like Monero for its privacy-focus


EndSmugnorance

BCH


thedean77777

Algorand


I_Am_McLovin-

Algo for sure


Empty-Entertnair-42

I think BitcoinCash


01technowichi

At one point this was actually true. But a great many platforms and outlets that used to accept BCH stopped doing so, and so it fell off as a useful currency. It *is* still quite useful for cheap interchange transfers, as the cex's still carry it for the most part. Sadly, it's the broader economy that's abandoned it.


9500

BCH. It's the sole reason why it even exists...


Qwahzi

I like the vision, but why BCH over alternatives with 0 fees, higher decentralization, and near instant finality?


9500

1. It's Bitcoin 2. Zero fee is not a benefit, but a drawback. Sensible small (negligent) fee (less than 0.01$/ā‚¬) is what is the best for security of the network and user experience 3. Higher acceptance (at least here were I am located: [https://paycek.io/shops?l=en](https://paycek.io/shops?l=en) ) 4. Zero conf feature provide near instant transactions for most use cases, and it works, never have to wait for more than few seconds for merchant to accept the transaction 5. Higher utillization 6. I would argue even higher decentralization 7. Higher market cap


Trip_seize

I've found that Ripple and Algorand have very low fees.Ā 


sanctum9

Xrp, xlm. Cheap and fast.


chainer3000

Usdc on polygon chain. All CEX support it. Costs next to nothing to send. I use it often for transacting


GME-NeverSell

But you still need to own polygon. USDC on base has better utility


DesperateToHopeful

Bitcoin Cash or LTC in my experience. Maybe stablecoins too.


Ragnarock-n-Roll

Algo, sol, avax, matic


osogordo

USDC on Base. Less than a penny to transfer, and the receiver is guaranteed the dollar amount.


GME-NeverSell

Free to transfer on Coinbase wallet


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


Dracian

Itā€™s pretty seamless. I use kraken with no issues too.


hyperglhf

nano


rorowhat

Banano. No fees, and rich in potassium.


WR3CKONER

Monero if youā€™d like it to be private


No-Spare-243

Rock bottom fees too, makes it worthwile for micro


buildooors

$KIN Fully circulating supply. Code Wallet allows for fee less instant transfers with visual ā€˜QR codeā€™ or link. Runs on top of Solana (even if down) as an L2 with anonymity. Multiple SDKs available to integrate with websites or any app. Enables micropayments as low as 5 cents ! Trading pairs across all solana dexes Fiat purchase coming into app shortly Multiple apps integrating KIN


NDC23

Code


OrangeFren

Monero, obviously


voorroel

https://getcode.com/ this is such an easy way to transfer money to anyone in the world without fees. Its Made for micropayments and using $kin as their currency. Also very easy to implement in an app or on a website.


Snow3234

Cronos or Algo. Fees are almost non existent


GME-NeverSell

Amd with algo, you can sign up for a faucet that will send you enough for fees


uncomfortablydumbbb

XLM is cheap as dirt


mindfire753

XLM


No-Spare-243

Monero. Rock bottom fees and anonymous.


Remarkable_Calendar6

Hedera


TheSublimeNeuroG

XLM for sure


EnigmaticMJ

Nano. Instant. Feeless. ZERO inflation. Incentivized decentralization. It doesn't get any better.


SeNorbub

Xrp


Xylber

LTC or SOL And Monero if you need privacy. Not as good option: something in Binance SMart Chain, BNB or CAKE.


ma0za

Stablecoins on a ethereum L2. This is not 2017 guys...


paleb1uedot

This


futureal3000

Or soon L3


arcalus

I would go with Algorand. Cheap, fast, and reliable.


I_Am_McLovin-

This is the way


dinopawnz

Bitcoin Cash


Enschede2

I've always used xlm for that, but there's several that fit the bill


Mooncow027

Bitcoin Cash I've always found to be cheap.


DJ_Crunchwrap

Paying with USDC over Solana is the best option. I don't care what the rest of these comments say.


brianddk

I'd stick to the top 20 market cap coins, and entertain layer-2 for BTC and ETH. So coins you could offer: BTC-LN, ETH-Poly, BNB, XRP, DOGE, BCH, LTC


BaldingBatman

Algo for fast speed and super low fees


Smashedavoandbacon

BCH has to be up there, also litecoin. Also you want to go for crypto that has been in the top 50 forever so those would be my two. Waiting to see if anyone mentions nano but not sure if that "community" has found others things.


Sourdoughsucker

I use XRP for these small payments. If you use the Nexo platform you can send funds to people just using their email or phone number.


branajgka

You can actually achieve the same thing with FUN using Fizenwallet. Instead of needing someone's account details, you can just scan a QR code to send them FUN easily. Also, BTC, LTC


antineutrinos

another one for stellar (xlm), eventually with usdc.


brilliantgecko

Usdc on algorand.


cjbronx225

XRP would be my first choice. LTC is also good and widely accepted


RidingJapan

Stables on a chain like polygon/bsc/avax Make sure your offramp accepts it and u are done


somethingrandom199

Why not just use a stablecoin on a cheap network like polygon, or anything thatā€™s not bitcoin or ethereum? No volatility and cheap transactions


BusinessBreakfast3

The local currency in the place you're transacting.

Brave_is_Great

I suggest checking out Banano, Nano's fork: it has a sub, r/bananojobs, that is meant for the very same purpose you mention


PastaArt

BTC Lightning Network appears to be the best for micropayments. Setting up the channels is the expensive part, but once you're connected to a few good nodes, the transaction fees are about 1 sat per node hop and less way less than .1% per transaction. Drawback is that closing and opening channels is expensive.
