In order to obtain HIVE tokens via FIAT ($NZ) I use the BitPrime Exchange. This is where I purchase/sell my ETHEREUM tokens and send it to MyEtherWallet, then from here I send ETH to blocktrades which converts the ETH to HIVE, where it is finally stored into my HIVE wallet. BitPrime does not trade HIVE and limited to $100NZ to $10,000NZ day, not sure what the weekly limit is.
About 6 months back someone here on HIVE mentioned EasyCrypto that has a lower buying limit of $50 and trades directly with the HIVE token. So I thought I'd join up and give it a try. The procedure was normal for this type of sign-up, just needed my drivers license (upload front and back), pen and paper to write down the date, my mobile phone to upload a selfie. Verification was fast so let's BUY some HIVE for kiwibloke ...
As from the top image $50 for 223.415 is a good testing amount ...
Before I start I must 1st obtain my HIVE wallet address, for this I need to got in to blocktrades. This is where the HIVE blockchain can trade with the world, you only need to sign to this when you are ready to buy/sell/exchange.
Now back to EasyCrypto you will be asked to enter these 2 fields. As you can see I decided to spend $55NZ.
You have some options on how you can pay, I chose POLi payments for no reason at all, it cost me another $1NZ which I didnt mind.
It all went quite smoothly, there was about a 4min delay for the HIVE to appear on kiwibloke wallet. I have decided to use EasyCrypto for all my HIVE Activities, making things easier for myself.
The hardest part was deciding what to do with all that deliciuos HIVE! "Power-Up" you say ? NAH!!! lets have a look at those SPORTS tokens via Leo DEX!
