How do I find the best places to buy Cratos?

Cryptocurrency exchanges offer similar services, but differ in a few key ways – mainly fees, the range of cryptos available and payment methods. You can use our table to compare the features of popular cryptocurrency exchanges available in Canada to help you choose the one that's right for you.

Some other factors you may want to consider are customer support, user reviews, ease of use and whether or not the exchange is registered with a local regulator. This information can be found by clicking on the exchange name in the table which will take you to its review page.

What will I need to buy Cratos?

To create an account on any cryptocurrency exchange you will need an email address. Some exchanges may also ask for a phone number and photo ID, so it's a good idea to have those ready.

An increasing number of cryptocurrency exchanges will ask to verify your identity before you can deposit funds and start trading Cratos.

  • This process is known as Know Your Customer (KYC) and usually requires photo ID and a webcam or smartphone. You may also need to prove your address by uploading a copy of a recent bank statement or utility bill.
  • Some exchanges allow you to deposit and trade cryptocurrencies without passing KYC, but they will not allow you to transfer local currency from your bank account. So if you are planning on purchasing CRTS with your local currency then you will need to pass KYC.
  • Once you have verified your identity, it is a good idea to enable 2-factor authentication (2FA) before depositing any funds. This will increase the security of your account and help keep your funds safe.

What are the best ways to buy Cratos?

Once you've created an account, you will need to deposit funds to buy CRTS with. You can either deposit local currency from a bank account or credit card, or transfer cryptocurrency from another exchange or wallet. Here are some popular ways to buy CRTS:

  • Bank account: Transfers from local bank accounts are usually free, but you will need to double-check this with the exchange you choose – this information can be found in our table by clicking on 'view details'.
  • Credit or debit card: Linking a card to your account is another convenient way to top up your account, but be aware that it usually attracts an additional fee. An advantage, though, is that you can use a card to make instant purchases or set up a recurring purchase.
  • Cryptocurrency: You can usually purchase CRTS by trading it for another cryptocurrency like Bitcoin or a stablecoin. This varies between exchanges though, so you will need to search for CRTS on the spot market to see what cryptocurrencies it can be traded for.

What is the easiest way to buy Cratos?

The easiest way to buy CRTS is by placing an 'instant buy' order to purchase it for a fixed price but not all crypto exchanges offer this feature.

Alternatively, you can open a trade on the spot market which allows you to set your own price – this is the most common way to purchase cryptocurrency. Using the instant buy feature is straightforward but typically more expensive than using the spot market.

Is Cratos a good investment?

Cryptocurrencies are highly volatile assets. It is, therefore, extremely important to evaluate both the token and the associated protocol. Here are a few important considerations to assess before investing in CRTS:

  • Transfer restrictions of CRTS: While the CRTS token was built using the ERC20 standard, the Cratos app uses its own off-chain ledger to allow fast and low-cost transactions. These are transactions that would otherwise require the Ethereum blockchain. Although the CRATOS off-chain ledger allows for far quicker transaction times, users can only transfer in-app CRTS to the Ethereum ecosystem once they’ve accumulated 50,000 tokens.
  • Adoption: As of January 2022, the Cratos App has garnered over 410,000 downloads and roughly 156,000 global users. Considering it was only launched in December 2020, its adoption rate appears to be high.
  • Tokenomics: CRTS has a maximum supply of 1 billion tokens. 36% of all tokens were allocated to the reward pool for onboarding users. The remaining 64% were allocated to partnerships, development purposes, and marketing. To offset the selling pressure from users, the platform has established a token burn mechanism. The token burn mechanism leverages the profits earned from the platform to buy back CRTS from exchanges. These are subsequently sent to a burn wallet to remove the tokens from circulation.
  • Competition: The blockchain voting space is nowhere near as competitive as other niches within the cryptocurrency industry. While there are a few projects that are focused on similar themes, such as Agora, if Cratos executes its vision correctly the protocol has a much better chance of capturing a dominant market share.
  • App rewards: Users can earn CRTS rewards based on a set schedule as defined within the App. Until June 30 2022, in-app CRTS rewards will be as follows: 1,000 CRTS tokens will be awarded for first-time registration, 5 CRTS tokens will be awarded for vote participation, 50 will be awarded for vote generation, and 10 will be awarded for any commentaries. After June 30 2022, the reward rates are set to halve.
