How to buy $SCRT for gas

There are several ways to get $SCRT from a beginner to a pro. We recommend heading to https://scrt.network/about/get-scrt/ for the most up to date information. You can buy $SCRT on Shade Protocol but if you do not have $SCRT you cannot do this because you need $SCRT for gas. If you already have $SCRT for gas you can buy more on ShadeSwap. 

There are four different ways to get SCRT, from beginner to pro.

Note: the method you can use will depend on your jurisdiction (i.e. the country you live in).

Option 1: Bridge Assets then Swap

You can bridge over many different crypto assets, and swap them for SCRT at the same time. An example of this would be to bridge $ETH from the Ethereum Chain onto Secret Network through the Shade bridge feature. Then go to ShadeSwap and swap some $ETH for $SCRT

Option 2: Fiat On-ramps

If it’s available in your geographical region, buying with fiat may be the simplest option like Transak or Kado

Option 3: Buy through Centralized Exchanges

Depending on your geographical region, you can buy SCRT on these centralized exchanges operated by traditional businesses like Binance or Kraken.

Option 4: Buy through Shade Decentralized Exchange

You can buy SCRT from DEXs within the IBC ecosystem, or a wrapped version of Secret from DEXs on Ethereum. Shade Protocol App is the best place to get SCRT.

Onboarding without gas
