How to Purchase Stellar (XLM) using Medusa (METIS)

To buy Stellar using Medusa, first, find a cryptocurrency exchange that supports the XLM/METIS trading pair. Create an account, verify your identity, and deposit your METIS into your exchange wallet. Locate the XLM/METIS pair on the trading platform and place an order to exchange your Medusa for Stellar. If the XLM/METIS pair is unavailable, you can first exchange Medusa 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.
