How to buy LIT, step by step

Choose an exchange that lists LIT
LIT trades on 37 of the exchanges we track. Among the best-rated of them (trust score 10/10), OKX handles the most LIT: $42.76M changed hands there in the last 24 hours; Coinbase Exchange and Gate 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 LIT directly with TRY, USD and KRW on OKX, Coinbase Exchange and Kraken. Deposit by bank transfer (usually cheapest) or card (faster but pricier).
Most LIT volume is against USDT (72%), so on other exchanges you would deposit money, buy USDT first, then trade it for LIT.
Buy LIT
Open the LIT/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. The gap between buy and sell prices is around 0.15% on the main markets, so a limit order can save you money on larger buys.
Decide where to keep it
You can leave LIT on the exchange, which is simplest, or withdraw it to a wallet you control. Before withdrawing, check that your wallet supports LIT on the same network the exchange sends on — funds sent over the wrong network can be lost.

Before you buy

LIT has fallen 25% in the past week — big swings in both directions are normal for it, so only buy what you can afford to see drop sharply.
Buying crypto can be taxable where you live. Keep a record of what you paid and when.
