How to Purchase NEAR Protocol (NEAR) using Bitcoin Cats (1CAT)

To buy NEAR Protocol using Bitcoin Cats, first, find a cryptocurrency exchange that supports the NEAR/1CAT trading pair. Create an account, verify your identity, and deposit your 1CAT into your exchange wallet. Locate the NEAR/1CAT pair on the trading platform and place an order to exchange your Bitcoin Cats for NEAR Protocol. If the NEAR/1CAT pair is unavailable, you can first exchange Bitcoin Cats for a stablecoin like Tether (USDT) or a fiat currency, then trade that for NEAR Protocol. Be mindful of potential exchange fees, which vary by platform and can affect the total cost of your transaction. In Germany, it’s also important to consider the tax implications of your trades, as capital gains tax may apply to your profits from cryptocurrency transactions.
