BEST Community Board

Total return on crypto indices

Unfortunately, you can only see the percentage gain/loss of the last 24 hours.
It would be great to introduce an overview of the entire period.

BEST VIP Votings in APP/WebUI

As far as I know, the BEST VIP votes are currently taking place somewhere on social media (Telegram I think), I think to reach more customers I would like to bring these votes into the Bitpanda App / WebUI, in addition to social media (or instead).
So that it is shown to all customers. In my opinion, this would be a win-win situation that would make the BEST better known among all customers and would also significantly increase the number of participants in the VIP voting.

Exact design as an example:

I would imagine that Bitpanda customers who do not yet hold a BEST would generally see that there are BEST VIP votes in the app and in the WebUI, including in the “timeline” at home.

If someone who does not hold a BEST then clicks on it and wants to vote, they will be informed that they must be at least BEST VIP1 in order to be able to vote. Ideally, they would also be shown the current total price to become VIP1 (I think 10 BEST) and could jump straight to the purchase screen with one click.

In my opinion, this would increase awareness of BEST and the VIP voting among all customers and could also boost BEST purchases. And, of course, it would also significantly increase the number of participants in the VIP voting.

Unfortunately, I don’t know how the VIP voting currently works, but I would imagine that in future you would get one “vote” per VIP level. So VIP1 level = 1 vote up to VIP5 = 5 votes.

Sponsoring F1

Bitpanda could sponsor Audi in Formula 1 from 2026.

Sort option for Watchlist & Co

It is currently not possible to sort your own watchlist and the “Your assets” section – similar to the function under the “Discover” tab, where this option is available.

Markus Miller in the BEST Committee!

Markus Miller frequently publishes great reports about Bitpanda on his KRYPTO-X.BIZ blog. He has now also published a brochure on the BEST token, which I think is great, especially for newcomers. He is probably also invested in BEST himself. I would like to see such an expert from the media sector on the BEST committee, that would certainly be a good thing!

BEST Rewards/ITB

Halve the rewards and double or triple the ITB to make trading activities more attractive.

API -IMPORT for the acquisition costs and COST BASIS (which Bitpanda requires) from Blockpit or Cointracking accounts.

A direct, simple one-click solution for entering the correct acquisition costs of the individual tranches for crypto deposits on the Bitpanda platform. For users who use Blockpit or Cointracking anyway, the API connections to the tax tool software are already in place. What works in one direction should also be possible in the other.

An idea to draw attention to BEST on the side

The webinar for VIP5 took place recently, which can now also be viewed retrospectively as VIP5 or VIP4. It would be great if Bitpanda could display information about this in the feed. If users who are not yet VIP4 or 5 click on it, they will see a message saying that they do not have the status to watch the video and what other advantages they would have with a higher VIP level.

Period when displaying trading volumes

Display of trading volume on a weekly / monthly / annually basis

COIN/TOKENLISTING and VOLLINTEGRATION on the Bitpanda platform

When new coins or tokens are listed, there should be FULL INTEGRATION on the Bitpanda platform right from the start. (e.g. buying, holding, swapping, depositing, withdrawing and staking coins on Bitpanda, etc.). There should also be an opportunity to propose new coins/token projects for listing directly on the platform. Here the community => (of course only VIPs) should be able to vote on which coins/tokens should be listed first (e.g. weekly voting until Friday and then an automatic listing of the project with the most votes no later than 1 week after voting).

Improvements to the Bitpanda Card

Cashback in crypto with fiat payments, depending on the VIP LVL, I know so many people who would then only pay for everything with the BP Card. Unfortunately, it’s not attractive to pay with the card at the moment.

Trading competition/competition with Best for all Bitpanda customers (not LVL) and LVL 1-3 similar to the Gold Member trading competitions/competitions (LVL 4 and LVL 5 are excluded).

Example: Conditions of participation and prize distribution.

Invest at least 25 euros in Best to participate and/or win the Trading Competition by investing a larger sum(s) in Best to become one of the 13 lucky winners of the Trading Competition.

1-3: Best worth 3000 Euro, which corresponds to a direct promotion from LVL 0 to LVL 3 or LVL 3 to LVL 4 (Trading Competition)
4-13: Best worth 600 euros, which corresponds to a direct promotion from LVL 0 to LVL 2 (Trading Competition)
14-103: Best worth 50 euros (participation in the competition (draw))

Why are LVL 4 and LVL 5 excluded and why are there so many winners?
This competition is intended to promote/publicize Best, hence the large number of winners and the focus on non-LVL and smaller LVLs. The promotion is the prize for the upper LVL (LVL4 and LVL 5)

Translated with DeepL.com (free version)

Sell order in stablecoin

It would be interesting to have the option of selling them not only in fiat, but also in a stablecoin.

Top and flop display of your own portfolio

Sometimes the value of the portfolio goes up or down sharply.
So that you don’t have to click through the assets to find the reason, a display for the top 5 and flop 5 would be good, selectable in FIAT and percentage and with a selection for the period (day, week, year, perhaps also since the start of the first investment)

Dust2BEST Update

Dust2BEST is really nice! But if staked coins (like BNB, APE, SOL, etc…) also worked with the Dust2Best function, that would be awesome.

Payback

As Bitpanda is now part of Payback, it should be possible to redeem Payback points at Bitpanda!

Savings plan for Fiat Wallet

So that the limit order has enough fiat for execution.

New BEST VIP benefit: Free crypto transactions per week/month

BEST needs more advantages and benefits at Bitpanda!
One possible advantage would be (similar to the free withdrawals with the Bitpanda Card) to also have a free quota for crypto transactions (shipping):
e.g.:
VIP 2: 1x per month free shipping for crypto assets that can be sent for a fee
VIP 3: 3x per month free of charge
VIP 4: 5x per month free of charge
VIP 5: 10x per month free of charge
Or variable depending on the asset. For expensive assets such as ETH or BTC, there is less in the quota, but more for cheap assets such as BNB.

And when receiving crypto assets that are subject to a fee, the quota should also apply, or better a separate quota, so that BEST VIPs do not pay any fees for a certain number, even if they transfer less than the minimum amount for fee exemption.

Birthday bonus

Give all VIPs a bonus of rewards in the form of BEST in the week of their birthday.

Bitpanda and FC Bayern Munich: Every goal a burn

How about a campaign at the start of the new Bundesliga season where Bitpanda burns 25,000 BEST every time FC Bayern Munich scores a goal? You could also announce that one million BEST will be burned for the championship title. This might not have a big effect on the token amount, but from a marketing point of view, I think it would be awesome. It would also be cool if the burning of the tokens always took place directly after the games.

Please consider the quantities given as placeholders

Stop loss Orders

As announced, also enable real stop-loss orders as with the limited buy orders. This will ensure reasonable hedging of the portfolio

More Card Cashback for VIP

For example, you could give:
VIP 1: 1% cashback
VIP 2: 2% cashback
VIP 3: 3% cashback
VIP 4: 4% cashback
VIP 5: 5% cashback

This would encourage many people to move up to higher levels and then actively use the card.

Proof of funds

A green tick if you do not have to show proof of origin or have already done so.
You can send the account statements or whatever to Bitpanda in advance to prevent this. This should then also appear visually on your account so that future withdrawals run smoothly.

Exclusive credit cards for BEST VIP levels

Hello everyone,

I would like to make a suggestion for discussion that could make Bitpanda even more attractive. Bitpanda already offers different tiers as part of the BEST loyalty program, which is great. I think we could expand the concept further by integrating exclusive cards for each tier, similar to crypto.com.

My proposal in detail:

Exclusive cards for each level: depending on the BEST VIP level reached, users could receive special cards. Each card would have an individual color, and the higher levels could also receive metal cards. For example:

Level 0: Standard card in black
Level 1: card in green
Level 2: card in red
Level 3: Metal card in bronze
Level 4: Metal card in silver
Level 5: Metal card in gold
Integration into the existing level system: The cards could be seamlessly integrated into the existing BEST VIP level system, so that advancing to a higher level automatically unlocks a new, exclusive card.

This extension could strengthen customer loyalty and offer an additional incentive to remain active on the platform and reach higher levels.

What do you think of this idea? I look forward to your opinions and suggestions!

Improve communication culture for non-positive processes with external impact

For example, the incorrect distribution of BEST Rewards on June 17, 2024, with subsequent correction of wallet balances based on rounded amounts.
It is already strange that such an event does not make it onto the status page in a timely manner as is customary in the industry, no, even the official Telegram community groups were met with silence despite many understandable queries.

Bitpanda tends to emphasize positive events and cover up negative ones. This kind of behavior thwarts any customer loyalty program.

Translated with DeepL.com (free version)

Lock vault wallet or quantity

Either a 2nd wallet as a vault Access only with 2FA no trading possible.
Alternatively:
Block quantity in the current wallet, e.g. 100 coins or 10% adjustable.

Why?
To avoid swaps by mistake. Even more security for holdings that are to be held long-term.

Increase BEST visibility

In general, you could give out rewards for certain things. Challenges.

For example:
– Become VIP 1 and receive XY points
– Claim your first rewards and receive XY points
– Follow your first spotlight and receive XY points

Then you could exchange these points for e.g.
– BTC
– BEST (at a better rate than BTC)
– merch
etc. etc.

I think that would be the best way to explain Best and its benefits.

You can of course expand this idea and turn it into a kind of Bitpanda Academy 2.0.
This way you could also point out the dangers of memecoins etc. and people would learn by working through tasks on topics like:
– 2FA
– Leverage and risks
– memecoins
– what is Bitcoin

etc. points, which they could then also exchange.

Translated with DeepL.com (free version)

BEST turns 5 (2024-07-09)

Is Bitpanda surprising us?

Passkey Sign in

Passkeys are a simple and secure alternative to passwords. With a passkey, you can log in to your Bitpanda account using your fingerprint, face scan or the device’s screen lock, just like with a PIN.

Passkeys offer the strongest protection against threats such as phishing.

Wallets with a separate security level

Each VIP should have the option of creating wallets and assigning separate security levels to them.
E.g. send only, set daily limits, cold storage, etc.

Ask Me Anything

It is time for another “Ask Me Anything” Session regarding everything related to Bitpanda like BEST, Pantos and BTS!

Burn Blog Content - Community Voting

Bitpanda could hold a monthly vote in the Telegram group or directly via the app (e.g. 5 suggestions from Bitpanda) on which topics the community would like to see more information in the next Burn Blog. And the number 1 would then be included in the blog as an additional point to the planned content. This would ensure that the community is not disappointed because the topics in the blog are not interesting

Bitpanda Academy

In my opinion, the Bitpanda Academy has enormous advertising potential for BEST.

It could be implemented quite professionally, a la Notcoin. Various tasks and side quests to earn BEST and BTC.
Not just once, but several times with different tasks and levels. Tasks and levels.
Zealy was also cool to win something.

Maybe you could make it big and integrate Best, Merch etc. as prizes.

For example, you could also point out the dangers of meme coins and people would read it and complete tasks for it. Topics such as 2FA etc. could also be covered.

Best could also be introduced to people playfully.

I might also integrate BTC rewards (€5 in this area). That would also attract people.

If a lot of people use this, it could even mean another source of income for Bitpanda, as projects could market themselves on it and would have to pay a corresponding fee (which would then be paid out to participants in the form of rewards for completing the respective tasks). The Spotlight could serve as a model here.

Making BEST holdings in the Bitpanda Custody Wallet more transparent

Currently, all holdings in the Bitpanda Custody Wallet are distributed to a few non-transparent wallets.
It would be very welcome if there were a more transparent distribution here.
Wallets for:
– Bitpanda Reserve
– Broker User Holdings
– BTS Holdings

Monthly update of the BEST key figures

Currently, the key figures for YoY growth of VIPs and BEST in customer hands are only updated every quarter.
In the interests of increased transparency for BEST, it would be highly desirable if these two key figures were updated for each monthly burn.

Incentives for completing a Bitpanda Academy basic course (e.g. €5 in BEST)

In terms of basic financial and crypto education, Bitpanda should once again place the Academy more prominently and incentivize it. There used to be a €5 prize in BEST for a quiz. This could be reintroduced in a similar form, for reading selected articles including changing questions (changing so that it cannot be exploited).

Own sub-accounts

The option to manage various sub-accounts.
E.g. hodl, savings plan for children, trading, etc., of course it’s up to you for what purpose

Limit amount of limit orders

The maximum number of limit orders on Bitpanda could be regulated with the BEST Vip lvl.

For example:

Vip 0 -> 5
Vip 1 -> 10
Vip 2 -> 20
Vip 3 -> 30
Vip 4 -> 40
Vip 5 -> 50

Separate crypto wallets

It should again be possible to create separate wallets for an asset.

Vouchers for Bitpanda

Bitpanda could also become a partner of Wunschgutschein.de, for example.
Then, for example, employee bonuses (up to €50 per employee per month tax-free in Germany) could also be paid into Bitpanda.

Spotlight

Spotlight is no longer distributed over the LVL (*5), but over the best quantity held.
Explanation:
Record the amount of Best held by the participating individuals and distribute it as a percentage depending on the amount of Best held by the participating individuals.
The LVL would no longer be decisive for the spotlight distribution, but the BEST amount on the wallet. It would therefore be interesting for each LVL to further increase the BEST amount, even if the next LVL seems unattainable.
So this approach, like the rewards, relates to the best held and not to the LVL simple principle. If you want more spotlights or rewards, then invest more in Best!

Separate € savings wallet

It would be great if, instead of the automatic Cash Plus, you could transfer a self-selected € amount to your own Cash Plus Wallet. For example, to set aside reserves for certain expenses or future tax payments.

Confirmation mail for Spotlights

If you follow a spotlight, you should also receive a confirmation by mail.

ITB for BCI rebalancing

The ITB should also be paid out when the BCI is rebalanced. This will give you more incentive to buy BCI and benefit from it as Best VIP.

Welcome bonus 10 BEST

New customer bonus 10 BEST until the end of the year.
Direct VIP1 -> advantages and the community also benefits.

Capital-forming benefits DE

Introduce capital-forming benefits, similar to Oskar ETF or Sparkassen. So the employer can use Bitpanda as an alternative.

Overview Holding period

A display of how many of the coins held in a position have already been held for a year would make it easier to see whether you can already sell tax-free (Germany). If you have bought and sold often, it is very tedious to keep track of this over time.

Spotlight / Giveaway Tokens Followings

Once the new token has been launched, you can no longer see whether you have followed it.
However, it usually takes a few hours for the new coins to appear in the portfolio, which can lead to uncertainty whether you have followed the token anyway.

Detailed portfolio

The portfolio value should show you how much you have invested (investment amount + percentage profit/loss) and how much tax has been paid (Austria).

Transparent Fees for buys/sells

It should be displayed how much % fees are incurred and also the amount. e.g. €100 = 133 BEST including fees (1%=€1.00) or at least there should be the possibility to view the current fees somewhere without having to laboriously calculate them yourself.

BEST guarantee from Bitpanda

Bitpanda is committed to supporting the Bitpanda Ecosystem Token (BEST) for as long as the company exists. The existing benefits, especially the rewards, are guaranteed to remain and additional benefits may be added in the future. This promise would significantly strengthen trust in BEST and secure its value in the long term.

BEST holders proactively participate in Bitpanda's business success

Bitpanda should pay out additional BEST to VIPs every year based on the company’s success, similar to profit sharing

Buy real estate shares with BEST

Possibly as with Brickwise (only the return or part of the rent which the property yields, should be paid in BEST)

VIP can buy Spotlights first

In addition to the distribution of free coins, it would be desirable if VIP customers were granted a right of first refusal according to VIP level, e.g.

VIP5 – 1.000€
VIP4 – 500€
VIP3 – 300€
VIP2 – 200€
ViP1 – 100€

A short exclusive purchase window before official listing on Bitpanda could facilitate this or offer an exclusive buy order opportunity for VIPs.

BEST VIPs should always have better options.

Bitpanda Card Cooperations

Please cooperate with the airport lounges (at least in Europe) for VIP 5, there will already be the possibility to do so via VISA.

Linking of a real product whereby you can save percentages when holding BEST (depending on VIP LVL)

A suggestion could be that for example when buying a RedBull (e.g. Austrian company with worldwide reach) if you pay with the Bitpanda card, you save something between 5 and 10% depending on the VIP level (would create a VIP advantage and at the same time make massive advertising through word of mouth daily) Ps: could of course also be done with other real world assets

Increase accuracy (decimal places) of prices (individually configurable)

The accuracy, i.e. the number of decimal places, of the prices should be increased (generally for all crypto assets), e.g. to 8 decimal places (12.01234567).
At the same time, this could be made individually configurable in the settings (via drop-down, e.g. 0.00; 0.0000; 0.000000; 0.00000000). This way, everyone can configure their own individual display.

VIP Level 6/Platinum

You should think about what comes after LVL 5. There are enough people in the community who hold significantly more than 50 k BEST. The level can then start at 100/250 or 500 k. Because these are holders who do not sell with every small market movement, but use the dips to buy more.

Guaranteed rewards for loyal best keepers

Provide a kind of security for best holders, e.g. from 50,000 units, to continue to hold the tokens for the long term. For example, give the option of locking a certain number of BEST tokens for e.g. 1 year, whereby the current market value remains at least the same, even after the locked period. The weekly rewards would then also be released after the locked period.

This would give BEST-Wale more security in the event of high price fluctuations and also help the ecosystem further.

Lock BEST for fee reductions

The time commitment (= no sale) of BEST should be rewarded with a fee reduction relative to the number of locked tokens. For Bitpanda, the advantage lies in the user’s commitment to the platform.

VIP 5 Events

All VIP 5 users should have the opportunity to meet up with other VIPs at least once a year and book a great event, function, etc. with Bitpanda. Each VIP 5 can take a maximum of 2 people with them. This would be a win-win situation for everyone, and the community would grow even closer together.

Spotlight better distribution between VIP 1 and 5

There should be a higher and better distribution between VIP levels 1-5. 5 VIP level 1 get as much as one VIP 5 at the moment. You should get significantly more if you have a higher level.

Strengthen Community

Best has relatively few members compared to other projects on Twitter, Telegram, etc.
Bitpanda should refer directly to the Best and Pantos groups on its website and social media accounts.

Homepage Bitpanda > Best advertising > link to Telegram, Twitter

Increase Best V.I.P Level to 10 and get even more BEST Rewards.

Current status: Level 1 0.10% Level 2 0.125% Level 3 0.15% Level 4 0.175% Level 5 0.20%

Future: Level 6 60k Best 0.25% Level 7 80k Best 0.30% Level 8 130k Best 0.4% Level 9 250k Best 0.5% Level 10 500k Best 1.2%

This increases the incentive to buy and hold more and more Best. The percentages and number of bests are only examples.

Advantages from VIP 4 onwards

The advantages should be from VIP 4 onwards, for example early investment in Bitpanda shares (if IPO) and others, as VIP 4 is already a large investment.

Reduces fees

You read again and again: “Not Bitpanda because of the high fees.”
This scares off many potential new investors, as other platforms are much cheaper.
If the Best VIP level were to be reduced more, this would have advantages both for BEST and for the decision to use Bitpanda as a platform.

BTS transparency

It would be nice to know what BEST has to do with the BTS partners. What connections there are and, above all, whether the end customer also becomes aware of BEST at the BTS partners and benefits from it. Even the BTS partners should focus on BEST.

Anonymized presentation of assets

Display of assets anonymized representation, only the percentages should be displayed!

Lower buy/sell fees depending on BEST VIP Level

To create incentives for BEST purchases

Multiple Wallets

Reintroduction of multiple wallets.

Staking for BCI

It should be possible to stake stakable BCI assets.

Raffle notifcations

All participants should get a notification, when a raffle is over and all winners were drawn.

Launchpad BEST

The introduction of a launchpad along the lines of KuCoin or Binance.
This would help to stabilize the BEST price in the long term and at the same time solve the problem of rewards, as participants would return their Best to Bitpanda in larger quantities through the launchpad.

There really is no need to reinvent the world here. Please simply adopt the BEST in Class systems and launch them this year to take advantage of the bull run.

New VIP Level

New VIP Level 1-4 can remain VIP 5 20000 BEST
VIP 6 32500 Best
VIP 7 50000 Best
VIP 8 100000 Best
So that there is not such an extreme gap as there is currently between VIP 4 and VIP 5. And with each new VIP level from VIP 4 upwards, there may also be a small merch package, which gets bigger and bigger. In addition, with every higher VIP level from 4 onwards, you have more say through voting, e.g. greater chances in competitions, so that you have to trade or invest less, for example, and from VIP 7 onwards you automatically take part in every competition if you click a button as with the rewards.

Show BEST VIP LVL in app

Display the different VIP levels directly in the app so that potential new customers can see the levels in their own app (values invisible).
Preferably including the 3 or 4 most important benefits that each level brings.

Suggestions in app

The suggestions should be integrated in the bitpanda app. It should be visible, on which bitpanda is working on. Good suggestions could also be rewarded to provide some incentives.

Cryptos in the spotlight should be visible in the crypto ranking

Cryptos in the spotlight should be visible in the crypto ranking with an option to select or not

A stablecoin savings plan

Being able to make a savings plan via stablecoin instead of just via the euro…

Pantos extensions

Pantos visibility should be increased via earning program, later also delegated staking.
Interest depending on the fixed period.

Possibly also a special level as a supplement to BEST to increase the incentive.

Internal savings plan

The possibility to create a savings plan within the depot (automatic swaps from crypto to crypto or other assets)

Top limit BEST Rewards amount

The amount of BEST rewards should be limited to 1 Mio BEST in stock.

Extend credit card cashback

Cashback should be changable to BEST or Pantos. When paying with EUR, cashback should be enabled. A metal card should be offered – free from VIP 4 onwards.

Guaranteed rewards

Minimum guarantee: Bitpanda guarantees a minimum percentage for the rewards for a period of 2 years at the current rate. This guarantee gives users security and promotes trust in the rewards system.

Long-term adjustment: In addition to the minimum guarantee, a possible reduction in rewards over a period of 3 years will be introduced. For example, Bitpanda could stipulate that rewards can be reduced by up to 50% after the initial 2 years to ensure the sustainability of the system.

Flexible adjustments in the event of positive development: If the development of the platform and the token is positive, the period during which the current percentages apply could be extended. This would offer users an additional incentive and further security.

Improving the perception of best and pantos

Pantos is completely lost on Bitpanda due to the large range of products.

In order to increase visibility, you could use categories such as:
-Highlights/All
-Assets/Crypto
-Leverage/Crypto
-Indices
-Shares
-ETFs
-Commodities
-precious metals
introduce an additional category, such as “Own projects”. This category could then list your own projects such as Best and Pantos.

Gradual introduction of new features

The proposal envisages introducing new features gradually for different VIP levels before they are available to all users. This creates an additional incentive to reach higher VIP levels and rewards user loyalty. An example of such a feature could be the introduction of limit orders.

Detailed implementation: Test phase: New features are initially released for VIP 5 users in order to identify initial feedback and possible problems. Gradual introduction: After the test phase, VIP 5 and VIP 4 users receive exclusive access to the new feature for one week. In the following week, access will be extended to VIP 3, VIP 4 and VIP 5 users. One week later, VIP 2 users will also be included in the exclusive use. Finally, all VIP levels (1 to 5) will have exclusive access to the feature for a period of 3 months. Marketing and incentives: During exclusive use, pop-up messages and notices will be displayed to show non-VIP users what benefits they could receive from VIP status.

For example: “Become VIP 1 and get new features before all other users.” The exclusive period can be flexible, for example shortened to 4 weeks to allow for faster feedback and customization.

"Lock" VIP Levels

Before losing a VIP level a message should pop up, which asks if you really want to give up all VIP benefits. You will lose the following advantages: …

Interest rates on USDT

It is rather simple, but maybe external partnerships are necessary. It could be better for Austrian citizens to go in USDT then in fiat for tax reasons.

Tax infos / savings - Austria

Display the information on how much tax has to be paid directly at the time of sale, with a clear breakdown for each product.

In addition, please also do the taxes for Cash Plus to have everything under one roof.

For Staking & Cash Plus, the correct percentage should be highlighted depending on the BEST VIP level.

Alarm notes

A practical function would be a note for an alarm, such as: “Get Invest out”.

Hedge BEST with BTC Pool

BEST receives a BTC pool. This pool fills up via the burn.

Bitpanda writes yes:
“Bitpanda takes and burns up to 25% of all BEST in the amount of revenue collected through payments of trading premiums from BEST VIPs.”

Here, 1% should flow into a pool with which BTC is purchased and deposited as a backup for Best.

The aim would be to divide the pool among all BEST holders in the event of Bitpanda’s failure. A kind of BEST insurance against total failure. A small side effect would be that BEST would receive an indirect minimum value in BTC.

Extended security features from VIP 3

Blocking of send/withdrawal from VIP level 3

Reward program for “ Tell-a-Friend ”

The current rewards for this are not competitive compared to the industry. The rewards are capped at a maximum of €100 per invitation for both when at least €10k of crypto is purchased. This means that Bitpanda pays out € 200 in rewards for € 10k new business (2%). That’s it then. Co-investors also share a percentage of the trading fees earned, sometimes for up to 1 year.

If a broker like Bitpanda spends € 3 – 5 million a year on the platinum partnership with FC Bayern (which accounts for almost 50% of the profit in 2023), you shouldn’t be too stingy with your own customers when it comes to marketing.

Savings plan from FIAT wallet

For all VIP 3 to 5 the possibility to set up a savings plan from the Fiatwallet at Bitpanda. This allows you to spend a few weeks without your cell phone. Of course, this also goes hand in hand with the automatic claiming of weekly rewards.

Price alert for portfolio value

Price alert for the total value of the portfolio.

Upgrade Bitpanda Card

Make payments with fiat and cashback in crypto possible, so that you always have an incentive to pay with the card because you get some cashback. Several card versions would also be cool, e.g. a Platinum for Gold VIPs.

Percentage cost reduction instead of ITB

Disadvantages of the current ITB:
– further reduction of the BP reserve
– Many people who have not yet invested do not understand that this is an indirect reduction in fees.
– Some smaller coins have 5% fees, which corresponds to a maximum discount of just 5% as Vip 5

Advantages of percentage cost reduction:
– More presentable (e.g. save up to 15% fees sounds better than get up to 0.25% of your volume back in Best)
– No additional reduction of the Bitpanda reserve

Crypto credit

Bitpanda could grant loans and use the customer’s credit balance in e.g. BEST or Bitcoin as collateral. The higher the VIP level, the better the interest rates.

Merchandising for Gold VIPs

It would also be great if you could get a merch package as standard when you reach Gold VIP status for the first time.

Merchandise for silver level

How about silver members also getting a small merchandise package?

In-App VIP Live Chat

Bisher gibt es noch keinen In-App Livechat. Man wird immer auf den Browser verwiesen. Wenn man das in die App implementieren könnte, wäre das extrem cool und smart.

Kann ein VIP Feature ab Level 4 oder 5 sein. 🙂

Pantos VIP Level

Introduce Pantos VIP Level anolog of the Best Level.

Exchange listing

It would be effective to list the Best on other exchanges. That would also make BEST and Bitpanda even better known.

Kids depots with Bitpanda

It would be nice if Bitpanda offered a junior custody account. Of course, I would like to save for my child with BEST 🙂

TAXES - Austria

Re-introduction of “sub-accounts” of the individual wallets (for all coins) in 3 wallets as follows:

1) Old stock
2) New stock
3) Rewards, staking, airdrops, etc.

or possibility to create several depots, e.g. depending on the VIP level (VIP1=1 additional depot, VIP2=2 additional depot, etc.)

This enables the fiscal wallet separation at the broker and the user can freely choose which portfolio he wants to trade.
It is thus clearly recognizable in advance whether tax can be incurred or not.
The risk of unintentionally selling old holdings during swaps, trades, etc. would also be a thing of the past.
A USP that Bitpanda must be the first broker/exchange to exploit.
PS: Of course, it should also be possible to automatically transfer or read in all data via API to Blockpit, for example.

Competition feature for Best VIPs

Here’s an idea to make BEST Vip 1 appealing to everyone:
Why don’t you run competitions like the Octavia Challenge or ETH Staking with the requirement that you have to be at least VIP
1 must be.
It’s the same with other competitions a la trade at least €50 in blabla
Make that the standard.
Competitions only from VIP 1.

If this is not desired, then give everyone from VIP 1 who also fulfills the other conditions of participation (e.g. at least 50€ ETH in staking etc.) a second slot in the competition.
You can also advertise this well:
Become VIP 1 and benefit from double the chance of winning
Then it’s up to you whether you want the double chance or not.
And believe me, that would be a simple and easy reason for many to become a VIP 1. 🙂

Ledger Whitelist

Whitelist your hardware wallet, e.g. to send the BEST to it and still receive rewards.

Expand portfolio time selection

Extend portfolio time selection by 2, 5 or “all time”.

Transfer staking via API

Unfortunately, the transmission to e.g. Blockpit from Staking Rewards is currently missing

Show portfolio value in BTC

The total portfolio value is displayed in Fiat. By clicking on the value, you could see the value in BTC.

BEST Roadmap

This shows what is being worked on and where BEST should play a role and in what form. At the moment, unfortunately, you can’t really see what you are investing in for the future. Much is based on the hope that something valuable could happen with BEST, but unfortunately there is no written form for this. Perhaps there is a way to do this that doesn’t give too much away, but can still give investors a vision to feel more secure with their investment.

Blog article on EVERY BEST-Burn

Not just once a quarter

Invested capital

It would be nice if you could see for each asset how much you have already invested in euros and how much you have now. Or even better, in relation to all assets, i.e. the money paid into BP vs. the current value

Selection of brand faces

You invest a lot in influencers and just seem to get everyone on board. Then StanTheMan posts a bad monotone mobile video in which he introduces Bitpanda. Not only that you could take BEST there occasionally, but whether all the investment is worth it when you look at the image painted in the comments by Bitpanda and Stan ?

A real market for BEST

There are currently no buy and sell orders. The price is probably controlled centrally at the moment depending on demand.

BEST presence in SM and interviews

You always see interviews or short discussions on social media and co. Why isn’t the BEST mentioned? Or the resulting benefits? A good example would be this livestream some time ago.

Link raffles to BEST

BTC, ETH etc. all the time – but why is it so rare to win BEST?

More activity in community groups

It would be great if Paul, Eric, Marco etc. would sometimes show up in the Telegram group, for example. We haven’t heard anything from Paul for ages, we don’t even know if he still holds BEST and stands behind it.

BEST Burn

Until a “maximum” of 75% of all BEST has been burned… Either you commit or you don’t – the word “maximum” in the sentence once again keeps all the back doors open, which always sends a negative signal to investors.

Account management fees for non-BEST holders

All Bitpanda users who do not hold at least 10 BEST must pay a monthly account management fee of €3.

BEST Quiz

A quiz about Best and its benefits for all newcomers.
Preferably as a story.
The reward is 10 Best.
So everyone gets to know Best first.

Display tax-free old stock

The specific old and new stock should be displayed per coin (+ also overall) in accordance with the Austrian definition.

VIP 1 for users who have never had BEST

Like Bitpanda did in France, only refined.

Offering every user who has never owned BEST the opportunity to get ten BEST for free – on the condition that they cannot sell them for a year.

This ensures that users experience the benefits of VIP membership before they potentially simply dump the BEST again.

BEST Rewards Credit

A kind of loan to upgrade to the next BEST lvl, which is automatically repaid with the rewards

BEST ranking

Anonymous ranking of who has the most BEST, with an indication of how many BEST are missing to move up a rank.

BEST Lottery

Monthly prize draw of 1% of the accumulated burn amount (preferably in addition to the burn, so that no other feature suffers) to one or more BEST VIPs.
The chance to win can be influenced by VIP level.

E.G: Lvl 0 – 0 tickets
Lvl 1 – 1 ticket
Lvl 2 – 2 tickets etc.

The chances do not have to increase linearly – just as an example.

The chance of winning can be increased by holding BEST or VIP lvl for a long time.

E.G.: Lvl 1 over 1 year = 1.1 tickets
Lvl 2 over 1 year = 1.2 tickets etc.
