Cryptocurrency Arbitrage Trading
Cryptocurrency Arbitrage Trading refers to the practice of purchasing cryptocurrencies overseas and immediately selling them in South Africa for a profit. This is possible due to the fact that cryptocurrencies can trade at a premium of 1 - 3% in South Africa compared to overseas.
Please note that formal legislation tailored specifically for crypto asset service providers (CASPs) in South Africa is currently in progress. Fynbos Arbitrage (Pty) Ltd operates within our group of companies. It functions as a CASP, adhering to and complying with the interim regulatory framework established for CASPs in South Africa.
