How to Purchase Filecoin (FIL) using Bitcoin (BTC)

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