Moreover, it is required to ensure that every individual on our platform is a genuine user.

Are the various offers visible on the P2P trading feature provided by CoinCRED?

No, the various trading offers you see on CoinCRED's listing page are provided by the users individually.

How is my trading secured on the P2P trading platform?

Your entire crypto trading and transactions are end-to-end encrypted and secured with CoinCRED’s escrow arrangement. It means when any selling offer will be posted, the coin amount will be systematically set for the offer from the seller's wallet. Even if the seller does not issue your coin and takes off with your fund, our support team will release the coin/token to you for the same amount.

Please note that being a seller, release the amount only when it is confirmed that you have received the amount from the buyers.
