## What Makes Voyager Token Unique?

This technology helps it connect instantly with over a dozen crypto exchanges for investors to choose the best exchange rate available for their transactions.

This feature also means that investors can also evaluate the spreads between bid and ask prices and higher levels of liquidity across different crypto exchanges. For traders, it becomes much easier to enter and exit positions.

Although the platform offers professional trading services, it remains very easy to use. The order submission is assisted by Voyager's Smart Order Routing. After selecting a coin or token, the order type, and the amount of the asset to be purchased in USD, Voyager's Smart Order Routing automatically fills out the order.
