How to Purchase Stellar (XLM) using Router Protocol (ROUTE)

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