How to buy JPYC, step by step

Choose an exchange that lists JPYC
JPYC trades on 3 of the exchanges we track. Among the best-rated of them (trust score 8/10), Upbit handles the most JPYC: $727.59K changed hands there in the last 24 hours; Uniswap V4 (Ethereum) and Uniswap V4 (Avalanche) 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 JPYC directly with KRW on Upbit. Deposit by bank transfer (usually cheapest) or card (faster but pricier).
Fiat pairs are the main way JPYC is bought: KRW alone accounts for 96% of its tracked volume.
Buy JPYC
Open the JPYC/KRW 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. The gap between buy and sell prices is around 0.61% on the main markets, so a limit order can save you money on larger buys.
JPYC is thinly traded ($757.8K a day across tracked markets), so large orders can move the price. Split big purchases or use limit orders.
Decide where to keep it
You can leave JPYC on the exchange, which is simplest, or withdraw it to a wallet you control. Before withdrawing, check that your wallet supports JPYC on the same network the exchange sends on — funds sent over the wrong network can be lost.

Before you buy

JPYC is a stablecoin designed to track a fixed value; people typically buy it to hold dollars on-chain or to move money between exchanges, not to profit from price moves. Its peg depends on the issuer's reserves.
96% of tracked JPYC volume is on a single exchange (Upbit). If that venue halts trading or withdrawals, liquidity elsewhere is limited.
Buying crypto can be taxable where you live. Keep a record of what you paid and when.
