How to buy ApeCoin?
Buying ApeCoin is relatively simple, and you only need to do it through a cryptocurrency exchange that supports APE trading. Currently, most major cryptocurrency exchanges such as Binance, Coinbase, Kraken and OKX support ApeCoin trading. When choosing an exchange, you can base your choice on the exchange's security, trading fees, liquidity and user experience. After choosing an exchange, you will need to complete some basic registration and authentication steps, and then deposit fiat currency (e.g., Taiwan Dollars, New Taiwan Dollars) or other cryptocurrencies into your exchange account, after which you can proceed with the purchase of ApeCoin.

In Taiwan, common exchanges include Binance, OKX, and BitMart, etc. These platforms offer easy-to-use interfaces and relatively low transaction fees. For example, OKX not only supports ApeCoin trading, but also offers a simple fiat top-up channel that allows you to quickly convert NT to ApeCoin. when choosing an exchange, it is also important to consider the exchange's security and money protection measures to ensure that your funds are protected.
How do I register and verify my exchange account?
After you have selected an exchange, you will then need to register. During the registration process, you are usually required to provide some basic personal information such as email address, cell phone number, etc. and set a strong password to protect your account. Most exchanges will then require you to undergo identity verification (KYC), which is designed to prevent money laundering and protect user funds. You may be required to provide an ID or other proof of identity, as well as facial recognition or a selfie, in order for the exchange to open your trading account.
How do I fund my Exchange account?
Once your exchange account has been registered, you will need to top up your account in order to make ApeCoin purchases. Most exchanges support two types of top-ups: fiat and cryptocurrency. If you choose to top up in fiat currency, you can do so via bank transfer, credit card, or a third-party payment platform. The platform will convert your funds into points on the exchange, which you can use to buy ApeCoin directly, or if you already hold other cryptocurrencies, such as Bitcoin or Ether, you can transfer these cryptocurrencies to the exchange and use them to exchange for ApeCoin.
How to buy ApeCoin?
Once your funds have been deposited into your exchange account, you can go directly to the trading page to make an ApeCoin purchase. Select a pair, such as "APE/USDT" or "APE/BTC", which means you will be exchanging Tether (USDT) or Bitcoin (BTC) for ApeCoin, then select the quantity you wish to purchase and confirm the price of the transaction. Most exchanges provide real-time market prices, but you can also set up a limit order, which will automatically execute the trade at a specific price. After confirming the price, submit your order and complete the payment process to purchase ApeCoin.
How to store ApeCoin?

Many exchanges offer a built-in wallet feature that allows you to store your ApeCoin directly on the platform, but this poses a risk to the security of your funds. Therefore, if you plan to hold your ApeCoin for a long time, it is recommended to transfer it to a hardware wallet or software wallet that supports ERC-20 tokens, such as Ledger, Trezor, or MetaMask, etc., which will increase the security of your funds.
