How to Purchase Stellar (XLM) Using SMARDEX (SDEX) in Russia

To buy Stellar using SMARDEX, first, find a cryptocurrency exchange that supports the XLM/SDEX trading pair popular in Russia. Create an account, verify your identity, and deposit your SDEX into your exchange wallet. Locate the XLM/SDEX pair on the trading platform and place an order to exchange your SMARDEX for Stellar. If the XLM/SDEX pair is unavailable, you can first exchange SMARDEX for a stablecoin like Tether (USDT) or a fiat currency such as the Russian Ruble (RUB), 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 the Russian market.
