LIST | South African Crypto Exchange, Luno, Crowned 2025 ‘Crypto Exchange of the Year’ by MyBroadband

In a sweeping vote by readers, Luno has been honored as MyBroadband’s 2025 Crypto Exchange of the Year, solidifying its status as one of South Africa’s most trusted crypto platforms.

The award is based on a broad survey that asked users to rate exchanges on:

• Ease of use
• Reliability
• Trustworthiness, and
• Overall effectiveness.

Luno stood out – nearly 65% of respondents named it their preferred platform for cryptocurrency investments.

Key strengths cited in the survey include:

• A reputation for strong customer support
• Security practices with multiple layers of protection
• A consistent focus on user experience and simplicity

Luno’s trajectory toward this award is backed by more than popularity. Some structural advantages include:

• Backed by Digital Currency Group (DCG): This gives it access to additional resources, technical support, and capital to scale features and security.
• Longstanding presence in the market: Since 2013, Luno has had time to refine its platform, build user trust, and navigate complexities in the African crypto landscape.
• A focus on continuous improvement – the winner’s statement indicates Luno plans to keep refining its services to stay ahead.

Luno’s recognition sends several signals:

• Maturity in African crypto markets: Users are getting more discerning, and platforms are being judged on real metrics like usability, security, and reliability.
• Competition intensifies: Other exchanges will need to raise their game to match or surpass Luno’s benchmark.
• User trust is a differentiator: Awards based on community input matter – reputation is not just built by marketing, but by consistent service.
