What is Cardano?
How to buy Cardano
-
1
Pick a regulated exchange
Coinbase, Kraken, and Bitstamp are licensed in most major jurisdictions. River and Strike are Bitcoin-only alternatives.
-
2
Verify your identity
Most exchanges require government ID and proof of address. Expect 5–60 minutes for verification.
-
3
Fund your account
Bank transfer is cheapest; cards are fastest but carry 1.5–4% fees.
-
4
Place your order
A market order fills instantly at the best available price. A limit order lets you set the price you'll pay.
-
5
Withdraw to self-custody
Once you own more than you're comfortable losing on an exchange, move it to a hardware wallet.
