How to buy NPC, step by step

Choose an exchange that lists NPC
NPC trades on 21 of the exchanges we track. Among the best-rated of them (trust score 10/10), Gate handles the most NPC: $243.5K changed hands there in the last 24 hours; Kraken and Bitget 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 NPC directly with USD, EUR and IDR on Kraken, Bitvavo and Bittime. Deposit by bank transfer (usually cheapest) or card (faster but pricier).
Most NPC volume is against USDT (54%), so on other exchanges you would deposit money, buy USDT first, then trade it for NPC.
Buy NPC
Open the NPC/USD 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 0.28% on the main markets, so a limit order can save you money on larger buys.
Decide where to keep it
You can leave NPC on the exchange, which is simplest, or withdraw it to a wallet you control. Before withdrawing, check that your wallet supports NPC on the same network the exchange sends on — funds sent over the wrong network can be lost.

Before you buy

Like all crypto assets, NPC can lose value quickly. Only invest what you can afford to lose.
Buying crypto can be taxable where you live. Keep a record of what you paid and when.
