What is Ethereum?

How to buy Ethereum

  1. 1

    Pick a regulated exchange

    Coinbase, Kraken, and Bitstamp are licensed in most major jurisdictions. River and Strike are Bitcoin-only alternatives.

  2. 2

    Verify your identity

    Most exchanges require government ID and proof of address. Expect 5–60 minutes for verification.

  3. 3

    Fund your account

    Bank transfer is cheapest; cards are fastest but carry 1.5–4% fees.

  4. 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. 5

    Withdraw to self-custody

    Once you own more than you're comfortable losing on an exchange, move it to a hardware wallet.
