Unlike many other digital asset trading platforms throughout the cryptocurrency space worldwide, GlobalBlock UK does not charge any fees for deposits or withdrawals and charges a maximum of only 1% commission on the top 20 coins offered and 2% on remaining alt coins which is comparatively cheaper than many other providers and exchanges. The combination of low costs, transparent pricing and personalised service makes GlobalBlock UK’s proposition highly compelling to people looking to trade a wide range of cryptocurrencies. So far in the month of September, the top five most popular traded assets by volume order through GlobalBlock UK’s platform are Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), Solana (SOL), Quant (QNT) and Polkadot (DOT).
Tim Bullman, Head of Sales and Trading at GlobalBlock UK, said:
“Being able to offer the widest possible range of high quality digital assets for our clients is important and we aim to soon expand further the number of digital assets available for trading across our telephone broking service, mobile app and online platform.

Building Customer Trust in AI with Blockchain
Blockchain is emerging as a critical tool in addressing the trust deficit in artificial intelligence. By leveraging decentralized ledgers, companies can provide transparent data provenance, ensuring that AI algorithms operate ethically and without bias. This integration allows customers to verify the origins of data used in AI models, fostering greater confidence.
