About Secure Shell Crypto
What We Do
Secure Shell Crypto is a cryptocurrency brokerage that operates through a secure terminal interface. Unlike traditional web-based exchanges, we provide access via SSH, offering enhanced security and a streamlined trading experience for technically-minded users.
Why Terminal-Based Trading?
Modern web applications are complex and present numerous attack vectors. By using SSH for access, we eliminate:
- Browser-based vulnerabilities (XSS, CSRF, clickjacking)
- Phishing attacks through fake websites
- Session hijacking via browser exploits
- Malicious browser extensions
Supported Cryptocurrencies

- Bitcoin (BTC) - The original cryptocurrency
- Ethereum (ETH) - Smart contract platform
- Solana (SOL) - High-performance blockchain
