How to buy XTZ, step by step

Choose an exchange that lists XTZ
XTZ trades on 50 of the exchanges we track. Among the best-rated of them (trust score 10/10), Binance handles the most XTZ: $1.07M changed hands there in the last 24 hours; Coinbase Exchange 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 XTZ directly with USD, EUR, KRW and TRY on Coinbase Exchange, Kraken and OKX. Deposit by bank transfer (usually cheapest) or card (faster but pricier).
Most XTZ volume is against USDT (78%), so on other exchanges you would deposit money, buy USDT first, then trade it for XTZ.
Buy XTZ
Open the XTZ/USD 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 XTZ markets are tight (around 0.10%), so a market order won't cost much beyond the trading fee.
Decide where to keep it
You can leave XTZ on the exchange, which is simplest, or withdraw it to a wallet you control. Before withdrawing, check that your wallet supports XTZ on the same network the exchange sends on — funds sent over the wrong network can be lost.

Before you buy

XTZ trades 97% 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.
