Choose How to Buy Shimmer

  • Buy Shimmer on BingX ChainSpot
    BingX ChainSpot offers access to early-stage Solana ecosystem tokens directly from your BingX account.
    1. Navigate to ChainSpot: In the BingX app or website, go to the Spot tab, then select ChainSpot.
    2. Fund your Spot account: Ensure you’ve finished Advanced KYC and have USDT in your Spot Account.
    3. Search for SMR: Use the ChainSpot search bar or select SMR from the Solana-supported asset list.
    4. Enter the amount of SMR to buy: Specify how much USDT you want to swap into SMR. Only market orders are supported on ChainSpot.
    5. Receive SMR: Check the output, fees, and contract details, then confirm the order; ChainSpot executes the swap on-chain and deposits Shimmer straight into your BingX Spot Account with no external wallets or bridging required.
    Pro Tip: ChainSpot eliminates the need for external wallets or manual bridging, but on-chain swaps may still incur Solana gas fees and be affected by liquidity or price volatility.
  • Buy Shimmer on a Decentralized Exchange (DEX)
    Alternatively, you can buy Shimmer on DEXs without KYC by using a compatible Web3 wallet.
    1. Set up a Web3 wallet: Create a compatible Web3 wallet, such as Trust Wallet, MetaMask, or Phantom, and fund it with a base token like USDC, USDT, WETH, or BNB. Make sure your wallet supports the network your token is on. For example, MetaMask supports Ethereum and most EVM chains.
    2. Connect to a compatible DEX: Connect your wallet to a DEX to buy Shimmer without KYC, e.g., use Uniswap for Ethereum tokens, and Raydium for Solana-based tokens to ensure full compatibility.
    3. Search for SMR: Choose the SMR pair and enter how much USDC or other base currency you want to swap into SMR.
    4. Swap for Shimmer: Set slippage, review gas fees, and approve the swap. Your Shimmer will arrive once the transaction is confirmed on-chain.
    Pro Tip: On-chain purchases include gas fees and carry slippage, liquidity, and smart contract risks. You are fully responsible for self-custody.
