Ethereum (ETH) is the world\u2019s second largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization, and one of the most popular digital assets. Most things in web3 games, metaverses and NFT marketplaces can be bought for ETH. You will probably need it on your way as a beginning crypto investor, so let\u2019s learn how to buy your first Ethers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ethereum and ETH explained<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

In fact, the original cryptocurrency is called Ether (ETH), while Ethereum stands for the open-source blockchain network. ETH is Ethereum\u2019s native token that enables all operations on the Ethereum blockchain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Things needed to buy ETH<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Before we start, make sure you have:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1) A crypto wallet supporting ETH \u2014 either software like Metamask, or hardware like Ledger.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2) Or a verified account on a crypto exchange, such as Binance, Coinbase, etc. Keep in mind that verification on a trusted platform will request your ID data and may take 24 hours or more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3) Some amount of fiat money on your account. You can deposit cash, as well as send the money from your credit card, Paypal and other financial services.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How to buy ETH<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s easy and convenient to buy Ether on a decentralized exchange or right inside the crypto wallet. However, these ways have some differences.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Buying on a crypto exchange<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

First, log in to your account on a selected crypto exchange and check if ETH is traded there. It is typically available on every platform, though.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Add fiat or crypto funds to your account using cash or credit card. Most popular exchanges like Binance have built-in crypto wallet pegged to your user ID. You can also connect a third-party wallet, if you wish.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Now it\u2019s time for the most important decision: do you just want to exchange your fiat for ETH, or trade it for a more interesting price?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Way 1: Exchanging<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Choose a pair of currencies you want to exchange (e.g. USD\/ETH) and simply click the \u2018Exchange\u2019 button. Fiat will automatically convert to Ether at the current exchange rate. You can\u2019t influence the price in this method.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Way 2: Trading<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Trading is a more advanced method, but it allows you to purchase crypto for a better price. There are a variety of trading techniques, but spot trading seems to be less stressful and most suitable for beginners.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Spot trading is when you make an order to buy cryptocurrency for a precise price. Orders are not guaranteed to be executed, but if the coin really reaches to your desired price, the order will be automatically completed and you will receive ETH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For example, you see that ETH costs $1,200, but you want to buy it for $1100, and you feel that the price will go down. Just make an order and keep waiting. You won\u2019t lose your money if the order fails to complete, but you can miss a sudden surge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Buying in the wallet<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is simply exchanging your currencies at the current rate offered by the wallet. It\u2019s normal to buy in the wallet when ETH prices are stable across the market, or you need to convert fiat to crypto quickly. Some wallets offer spot trading and futures, too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Other ways to get ETH<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can obtain ETH in a variety of ways, including receiving a P2P transfer, rewards from a blockchain game or royalties from selling your own NFTs. Ethers can be also obtained as passive income from crypto loans and staking (see our previous articles).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ethereum ATMs<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

An alternative way to buy ETH is doing so through an Ethereum ATM. Most of them are located in the US, there are also machines in Europe and Asia. Nearest ATMs can be found with the help of a Google search. You will need an Ethereum wallet to store the purchased cryptocurrency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

PayPal<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

This financial service appears to be crypto-friendly and allows to buy ETH along with BTC, LTC and some other coins. The simplest way to do it is by using the eToro platform, which has an option to buy with PayPal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Traditional institutions<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Few traditional exchanges offer investors to buy ETH, but such an alternative also exists. One of such venues is the Chicago Mercantile Exchange, or CME. Although the deals are settled into cash, and these are not actual ETHs, the CME\u2019s Ether futures still provide ETH price exposure for those interested in using traditional finances.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Afterwards<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

As you can see, there are plenty of alternatives to purchase ETH \u2014 not every cryptocurrency can boast with such accessibility. Pick up the perfect method and start your journey with Ethereum!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"

Crypto lending is one of the ways to help grow your digital currency. This tool lets users borrow and lend cryptocurrencies for a fee or interest. Let\u2019s have a detailed look at this method of earning passive income.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How it works<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

To lend crypto means to deposit cryptocurrency on a lending platform, so it is given to borrowers in return for regular interest payments. Here, crypto lending platforms serve as important intermediaries that connect both sides and make the process safe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It resembles loans in traditional banks: lenders deposit their crypto into high-interest accounts, and borrowers secure loans through the intermediary. The platform then funds the loan using the crypto that lenders have deposited.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Crypto loans and terms<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

So, a crypto loan, or a crypto borrowing, is a type of secured loan in which one\u2019s crypto holdings are used for getting interest payments. Loan terms can vary from seven days to a year or more \u2014 it is agreed by lenders and borrowers, and limited only by platform\u2019s possibilities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What crypto can be lended?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bitcoin and Ethereum and the two most popular cryptocurrencies for loans, as well as stablecoins. Some platforms accept as many as 40 different cryptocurrencies as collateral. Typically, users can borrow up to 50% of their crypto\u2019s value on a lender like Binance. A few platforms also allow you to borrow up to 90% of the value of your assets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Interest rates<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Crypto landing interest rates are usually lower compared to P2P loans and credit cards. On some platforms like Nexo, interest rates start from 0% and up to 14%. However, the rates for stablecoins are higher and are often in the range from 10% to 18%. Keep in mind that each lending platform has different rates for different coins.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Making money by loaning crypto<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Usually, when lenders deposit their crypto for borrowings, no other fees are taken from them. After the loan\u2019s term finishes, lenders get their full deposit back with interest. Lenders receive payments in the same cryptocurrency as deposited, on a daily, weekly, or monthly basis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The risks<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Everything mentioned above may make an impression that crypto loans are a totally safe and lossless type of earning. However, there is an inherent risk connected with inflation and crypto prices drops.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To sum it up<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Crypto lending is another way to make your digital assets \u2018work\u2019 and bring passive income. If you want to try this tool, take your time to choose a lending platform that offers reasonable interest rates and supports the currencies you want to lend.<\/p>\n","post_title":"What is Crypto Lending and How Does it Work?","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"what-is-crypto-lending-and-how-does-it-work","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2022-12-19 09:38:39","post_modified_gmt":"2022-12-19 09:38:39","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"http:\/\/78.47.81.216\/?p=479","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":1508,"post_author":"9","post_date":"2023-10-11 22:34:37","post_date_gmt":"2023-10-11 22:34:37","post_content":"\n
