How to Purchase Stellar (XLM) using Stride Staked Atom (STATOM)

To buy Stellar using Stride Staked Atom, first, find a cryptocurrency exchange that supports the XLM/STATOM trading pair. Create an account, verify your identity, and deposit your STATOM into your exchange wallet. Locate the XLM/STATOM pair on the trading platform and place an order to exchange your Stride Staked Atom for Stellar.
