Crypto Arbitrage Scanner
Live cross-exchange price spreads · refreshes every 10 seconds
The arbitrage scanner compares live spot prices for major cryptocurrencies across six of the world's largest exchanges — Binance, Coinbase, Kraken, KuCoin, Bybit and OKX. For each coin, the scanner identifies the exchange with the lowest ask (buy price) and the exchange with the highest bid (sell price), then calculates the gross spread and the net profit after fees. Taker fees are applied to both legs of the trade, giving you a realistic estimate of what you would actually earn. Opportunities that survive fee deductions are highlighted in green; unprofitable spreads are shown in red.

Prices are fetched live from each exchange's own official REST API. In the net profit calculation, each exchange's taker fee is applied separately (the buy fee is deducted from the base asset, the sell fee from the USD proceeds), and any withdrawal fee is deducted per trade. Only real opportunities based on USDT/USD, listed on at least 3 exchanges, and with a spread under 15% are shown; leveraged tokens (UP/DOWN/3L/5S) and assets with name collisions (LUNA, FTT, WBTC, etc.) are excluded. Transfer time and slippage are not included. Not investment advice.
How Arbitrage Works
Arbitrage exploits price differences for the same asset across different markets. In crypto, this means buying a coin on Exchange A at a lower price and selling it on Exchange B at a higher price. The gross profit is the difference between the two prices. However, every exchange charges trading fees (taker fees for market orders), which must be subtracted from the gross profit to get the real net profit. This scanner applies each exchange's known taker fee to both the buy and sell side, so the net profit figure you see is what remains after fees — the number that actually matters.
Risks and Limitations
Arbitrage opportunities are extremely time-sensitive. Prices can move within seconds, and the spread you see may no longer exist by the time your orders execute. Additional costs not captured here include withdrawal fees, network gas fees, slippage on large orders, and the time required to transfer funds between exchanges. Always verify prices and fees on the exchange itself before placing any trades. This tool is for informational purposes only and is not investment advice.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is crypto arbitrage?
Crypto arbitrage is buying a cryptocurrency on one exchange where the price is lower and selling it on another where the price is higher, profiting from the difference.
How is net profit calculated?
Net profit = (highest bid − lowest ask) − (taker fee × lowest ask) − (taker fee × highest bid). This gives a realistic estimate after exchange fees.
Which exchanges are covered?
Binance, Coinbase, Kraken, KuCoin, Bybit and OKX — six of the largest exchanges by trading volume.
How often do prices update?
Every 10 seconds. Arbitrage opportunities can vanish within seconds, so always verify on the exchange before executing.
