Ourbit launched in 2020, though the company behind it dates its origins to 2017, and it is registered in the British Virgin Islands. It set out to win traders with speed and leverage: a zero-fee spot schedule, 0.02% and 0.04% on USDT-margined perpetuals with up to 200x leverage, and a listing desk that puts new and meme tokens on the board before Binance or Coinbase do. Trackers disagree on how many assets it carries, from a hundred to more than seven hundred, which is itself a sign of how fast the list moves. Copy trading, staking and a built-in DEX aggregator round out the app.
For an American it is a closed door. Ourbit lists the United States among its restricted regions, together with mainland China, Singapore, North Korea, Cuba and Iran, and its verification rejects a U.S. address. There is no Ourbit U.S. entity, no state money transmitter license, and no license from a major regulator such as the FCA, the CFTC or the MAS that Ourbit claims or that we could find. It is an offshore exchange in the plain sense of the word.
Anytime Capital serves the customer Ourbit turns away, and anyone else. It is a U.S. company that sells to customers worldwide, with a storefront at 2549 Piedmont Road NE in Atlanta, an office in Miami, a phone number that reaches a person, and nine ways to pay, including cash and same-day wire. It is not an order book and does not offer leverage. It sells you Bitcoin, Ethereum, USDC and other major coins, delivers them to a wallet you control, and gives you a bank account and debit card to cash out into.
