How to Purchase Stellar (XLM) using eCash (XEC)

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