How to buy CRV, step by step

Choose an exchange that lists CRV
CRV trades on 74 of the exchanges we track. Among the best-rated of them (trust score 10/10), Binance handles the most CRV: $11.03M changed hands there in the last 24 hours; OKX and Kraken are the next options.
Check that the exchange is licensed or allowed to operate where you live — the same exchange can offer different coins in different countries.
Create an account and verify your identity
Centralized exchanges ask for an email, a password and, before you can deposit money, identity verification (KYC) with a photo ID. Turn on two-factor authentication with an authenticator app, not SMS, as soon as the account is open.
Deposit money
You can buy CRV directly with TRY, USD, EUR and GBP on Binance, Kraken and Coinbase Exchange. Deposit by bank transfer (usually cheapest) or card (faster but pricier).
Most CRV volume is against USDT (81%), so on other exchanges you would deposit money, buy USDT first, then trade it for CRV.
Buy CRV
Open the CRV/TRY market and enter how much you want to spend. A market order fills immediately at the best available price; a limit order waits until the price reaches the level you set. Spreads on the main CRV markets are tight (around 0.08%), so a market order won't cost much beyond the trading fee.
Decide where to keep it
You can leave CRV on the exchange, which is simplest, or withdraw it to a wallet you control. Before withdrawing, check that your wallet supports CRV on the same network the exchange sends on — funds sent over the wrong network can be lost.

Before you buy

CRV has risen 22% in the past week — big swings in both directions are normal for it, so only buy what you can afford to see drop sharply.
The single busiest CRV market is on BitDelta, which has a trust score of 6/10. Low-rated venues sometimes overstate volume, so we list well-rated exchanges first.
