How to Purchase Stellar (XLM) using Walrus (WAL)

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