The Global Digital Asset Exchange (GDAX) is owned and operated by Coinbase.com. At first, Coinbase setup for the purchasing of Bitcoin via U.S. Dollars. Once Coinbase began trading other crypto-currencies other than Bitcoin, they then created the exchange now known as GDAX. GDAX trades in Bitcoin, Bitcoin Cash, Litecoin and Ethereum. It seems that GDAX will be adding other crypto-currencies in the future, but with certain litigation pending against GDAX owner, Coinbase, it may be a while before any new coins are added to their exchange. Nonetheless, GDAX is a major player in the crypto-world, coming in at #5 on the list of Top 50 Websites in Crypto-currency.


#4
Bittrex.com
Global Rank #308
US Rank #564

Bittrex, founded in 2013, is a premiere crypto-currency exchange based out of Seattle, Washington. Bittrex is regarded as one of the most stable and secure crypto-currency exchanges today. Bittrex trades over 250 pairs of alt-coins, has some of the largest trading volume and is also one of the more well funded exchanges in the world. Their continued success places Bittrex at #4 on the list of Top 50 Crypto-currency websites.

Coinbase.com is one of the most popular crypto-currency destinations today, coming in at #3 on the list of Top 50. Coinbase was founded in 2012 out of San Francisco, CA and backed by large Venture Capitalists like Andreessen Horowitz. They originally started as a platform for purchasing Bitcoin, but have quickly become a premiere crypto-currency exchange with the launching of their trading platform called GDAX.


#2
Binance.com
Global Rank #199
US Rank #230

Binance.com has taken the crypto-currency trading world by storm. Based out of Hong Kong, Binance is less than a year old and is already the Number #1 crypto-currency trading exchange in the world. It is so popular, that it place at #2 on the list of Top 50 Most Influential Websites in the Crypto-currency world. Binance has quickly gained over 6 Million active trading accounts, and only recently surpassed Coinbase as the most popular crypto-currency exchange. Binance.com's massive growth spurt is probably still in the early stages as the crypto-currency phenomenon treks around the world.


#1
Coinmarketcap.com
Global Rank #103
US Rank #110

Coming in at #1 on the list of Top 50 Most Influential Websites in Crypto-currency, Coinmarketcap.com is the go to website for the world of crypto. No other website carries as much weight as the information provided by Coinmarketcap. Founded in 2013, it would not be until early in 2017, when the world finally began to take notice of Bitcoin, that Coinmarketcap's website would really begin to make its move to the rankings. With the explosion in Bitcoin's price, the emergence of many new successful alt-coins and the new mania in ICO's, Coinmarketcap's site made its final move to the top late in 2017, currently retaining the crown as the Most Popular and Influential Website in crypto-currency.
