How to Purchase Polkadot (DOT) using Splintershards (SPS)

To buy Polkadot using Splintershards, first, find a cryptocurrency exchange that supports the DOT/SPS trading pair. Create an account, verify your identity, and deposit your SPS into your exchange wallet. Locate the DOT/SPS pair on the trading platform and place an order to exchange your Splintershards for Polkadot. If the DOT/SPS pair is unavailable, you can first exchange Splintershards for a stablecoin like Tether (USDT) or a fiat currency, then trade that for Polkadot. 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.
