How to Purchase Lido Staked Ether (STETH) Using Merlin Chain (MERL) in Russia

To buy Lido Staked Ether using Merlin Chain, first, find a cryptocurrency exchange that supports the STETH/MERL trading pair popular in Russia. Create an account, verify your identity, and deposit your MERL into your exchange wallet. Locate the STETH/MERL pair on the trading platform and place an order to exchange your Merlin Chain for Lido Staked Ether. If the STETH/MERL pair is unavailable, you can first exchange Merlin Chain for a stablecoin like Tether (USDT) or a fiat currency such as the Russian Ruble (RUB), then trade that for Lido Staked Ether. Be mindful of potential exchange fees, which vary by platform and can affect the total cost of your transaction in the Russian market.
