How to buy SHIB, step by step

  1. Choose an exchange that lists SHIB

    SHIB trades on 73 of the exchanges we track. Among the best-rated of them (trust score 10/10), Binance handles the most SHIB: $6.72M changed hands there in the last 24 hours; OKX 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.

  2. 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.

  3. Deposit money

    You can buy SHIB directly with TRY, BRL, EUR and JPY on Binance, Coinbase Exchange and Kraken. Deposit by bank transfer (usually cheapest) or card (faster but pricier).

    Most SHIB volume is against USDT (78%), so on other exchanges you would deposit money, buy USDT first, then trade it for SHIB.

  4. Buy SHIB

    Open the SHIB/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 SHIB markets are tight (around 0.05%), so a market order won't cost much beyond the trading fee.

  5. Decide where to keep it

    You can leave SHIB on the exchange, which is simplest, or withdraw it to a wallet you control. Before withdrawing, check that your wallet supports SHIB on the same network the exchange sends on — funds sent over the wrong network can be lost.

Before you buy

  • SHIB trades 93% below its all-time high. A long drawdown is a reminder that crypto prices can fall a long way and stay there.
  • Buying crypto can be taxable where you live. Keep a record of what you paid and when.
