How to Purchase Stellar (XLM) using Sponge (OLD) ($SPONGE)

To buy Stellar using Sponge (OLD), first, find a cryptocurrency exchange that supports the XLM/$SPONGE trading pair. Create an account, verify your identity, and deposit your $SPONGE into your exchange wallet. Locate the XLM/$SPONGE pair on the trading platform and place an order to exchange your Sponge (OLD) for Stellar.
