How to Purchase USDC (USDC) using Chainlink (LINK)

To buy USDC using Chainlink, first, find a cryptocurrency exchange that supports the USDC/LINK trading pair, such as YouHodler, Binance, BTSE or Coinbase. Create an account, verify your identity, and deposit your LINK into your exchange wallet. Locate the USDC/LINK pair on the trading platform and place an order to exchange your Chainlink for USDC. If the USDC/LINK pair is unavailable, you can first exchange Chainlink for a stablecoin like Tether (USDT) or a fiat currency, then trade that for USDC. 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.
