How to Purchase NEAR Protocol (NEAR) Using Bitcoin (BTC) in Russia

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