Providers / SideShift

SideShift, measured

Every provider on this site is asked the same question at the same moment — same pair, same amount, same second — and every answer is kept. SideShift has been asked 6,233 times. What follows is what it did, not what it says about itself.

The record

2,544 prices from 6,233 requests.

2,544 prices from 2,551 requests on pairs it has answered at least once. The gap to the figure above is pairs it does not trade.

Pairs priced33

Distinct currency pairs it has ever returned a price for here.

Last answered13 November 2026

The most recent fan-out that got a price out of it.

A rate is printed only above thirty samples; below that it reads as a dash rather than as a number, and the sample size is beside every figure so a reader can disagree. “Behind the best price” is the comparable one: it is measured inside a single fan-out, against the same competitors at the same second, so it needs no market benchmark and cannot be flattered by a wrong one.

Identity checks

Their own terms

“Monero and Zcash delisted; Tor access refused.”

SideShift's own terms, read 6 September 2026. Quoted exactly rather than summarised, because a summary of a clause is an opinion about it.

Ranked on the same figure over the same record. It is an average and not a promise: the cheapest provider changes with the pair, the direction and the amount, which is the whole reason this site prices all of them at once rather than recommending one.

No account, no email, and nothing held: your browser pays the provider's deposit address and the provider pays yours.
