How we rank exchanges by region
Regional score = our base score (0 to 5, same formula worldwide) + 0.5 for a verified local licence (0.3 for a registration, 0.1 for a pending application) + 0.2 for verified local fiat deposits + 0.1 for verified local-language support. Exchanges with a verified local licence or registration always rank above those without one. Exchanges that are geo-blocked or under a regulator warning are excluded. Affiliate relationships are not an input. How we test
