Rule summary

  • Follow proper reddiquette: Follow proper reddiquette
  • Treat each other with respect: 🚫 Using sexist, racist, homophobic, or excessively foul language. 🚫 Blackmailing, harassing, doxxing, trolling, etc.

Works well

  • An honest review of an exchange you actually used, written as a trader sharing experience
  • A practical security tip, like how you protect funds when trying a new exchange
  • A plain language breakdown of a new listing that helps beginners judge the risk
  • A question asking seasoned traders how they compare exchanges before committing funds
  • A post about your own crypto product where you disclose your connection and lead with a useful lesson

Avoid

  • Using sexist, racist, homophobic, or excessively foul language anywhere in your post or comments
  • Trolling people who disagree with you in your own thread
  • Harassing or doxxing another member, even if they criticized your product
  • Blackmailing members, for example threatening to expose someone who calls your exchange review fake
  • Ignoring reddiquette, like downvoting honest criticism or spamming the same reply at everyone
  • Starting fights in the comments because someone doubts your platform or your advice

What r/CryptoExchange Is For

r/CryptoExchange is a community where people talk about cryptocurrency exchanges. The description points to sharing experiences, advice, and trading strategies around Bitcoin, Ethereum, and altcoins. Beginners and seasoned traders both post here. The everyday topics are exchange reviews, security tips, and news about new listings. So the room is full of people picking an exchange, comparing platforms, trying to keep their funds safe, and asking more experienced traders what they would do.

Rules That Matter Before Posting

There are only two published rules here, but both of them decide whether your post survives. The first is “Follow proper reddiquette”, which the moderator one-liner ties directly to removals, so spam, vote manipulation, or any behavior reddit itself considers bad form is a risk. The second is “Treat each other with respect”, which bans sexist, racist, homophobic, or excessively foul language, plus blackmailing, harassing, doxxing, and trolling. That second rule matters for marketing more than it looks, because crypto threads get heated fast, and if you argue rudely with skeptics in your own thread you can lose the account, not just the post. There is no published rule about promotion, links, or AI content, so treat this community as one where the written rules are lenient but the respect rules are absolute.

What To Post

For a founder, the natural fits are honest experience posts and security content. If you build in crypto, write about a real exchange problem you solved, like how you handle custody, withdrawal security, or checking whether a new listing is legit. A short, practical security tip lands well with both beginners and veterans, and it shows you know the space before you ever mention what you do. When you do share something about your own product, say plainly that it is yours, lead with the lesson or the data, and keep the self interest visible rather than hidden. Stay polite in every reply, including to people who doubt you, because the respect rule is the one that decides whether you keep posting here.

What To Avoid

The rules spell out the removal triggers directly. Language that is sexist, racist, homophobic, or excessively foul gets you removed, so keep every word clean even when someone frustrates you. Blackmailing, harassing, doxxing, and trolling are all named as violations, which means do not attack people who disagree with you and never dig into anyone's identity. Failing to follow proper reddiquette is its own removal trigger, so no spam behavior, no manipulation, and no acting like the community owes you attention. The moderator one-liner makes it plain that posts and comments violating reddiquette or showing disrespect get removed, and in crypto communities disrespect usually shows up as name calling when someone doubts your project.

Common questions about r/CryptoExchange

Can I promote my exchange or crypto product here?

The rules only mention reddiquette and respect, so nothing on the page tells us. The safe move is to lead with something useful, like a security tip or an honest exchange experience, and be upfront about who you are.

Are links allowed?

Nothing in the rules bans links, but the moderator line says posts that break reddiquette get removed, so a link dump with no real contribution is the most likely thing to get taken down.

Is AI written content banned?

Nothing in the published rules mentions AI content, so treat it like any other post, follow reddiquette, and make sure it reads as respectful and useful rather than noise.

What if someone accuses me of shilling?

The survival tips say be polite at all times and avoid trolling, so if someone attacks your product in the comments, stay calm or simply stop replying.

Is this community beginner friendly enough for basic questions?

The description welcomes both beginners and seasoned traders, so a clear security tip or an honest review of an exchange is exactly the kind of content this community exists for.
