What xRocket is
The venue grew out of a Telegram bot and stayed in the messenger: the wallet, trading and the ad board all open in the same window where you chat. There is no separate app to install, and that is what sets it apart from every other venue in this review.
What is on offer
P2P comes first. The board carries over a thousand buy ads and around two hundred sell ads, with roubles and hryvnia both properly represented: some three hundred ads in roubles and sixty in hryvnia. Tenge, euros, Belarusian roubles, som, dram, Uzbek sum and rupiah are there too.
Spot is more modest: 54 pairs, twenty of them against USDT, the rest quoted in GRAM, a token of the TON ecosystem. Among the coins are NOT, DOGS, MAJOR, STON and EVAA, which the large exchanges often do not list at all.
There are no futures and no funding rate: the section does not exist in its interface.
What xRocket adds to our scanners
Mainly its rouble and hryvnia boards: they run in the P2P scanner alongside the exchange ones, with limits, payment methods and a seller record on every ad.
Each ad shows the seller's trade count and success rate — almost none of our other sources provide that, and when choosing a counterparty it matters more than the price.
What to know before trading
The spot book is thin: the gap between buying and selling BTC runs to about half a per cent, where the large venues sit in hundredths. On smaller pairs the gap reaches tens of per cent.
Who it suits
Anyone changing roubles or hryvnia into USDT who would rather not install another app: it all happens in Telegram. And anyone after TON-ecosystem coins, which the majors usually skip.
