How do I find the best places to buy Huobi?

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 the US 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 Huobi?

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 Huobi.

• 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 HT 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.

Where can I buy Huobi with a credit or debit card?

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

Exchange	Bank deposit	Card deposit	Crypto deposit	Buy HT
				Go to KuCoin Cryptocurrency Exchange
				Go to Paybis Cryptocurrency Exchange

• 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 HT by trading it for another cryptocurrency like Bitcoin or a stablecoin. This varies between exchanges though, so you will need to search for HT on the spot market to see what cryptocurrencies it can be traded for.

What is the easiest way to buy Huobi?

The easiest way to buy HT 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.

Before buying HT, you may want to check the market conditions. To help you decide if now is the right time to buy, you can take a look at our Analysis tools to get an idea of how the price of Huobi has been performing recently.

Best Huobi Token wallets to store your HT

You can keep your HT on the exchange you purchased it on, or move it to a personal wallet:

• Some people like to use their own wallets to guarantee total ownership over their assets, or to use them with other applications like DeFi services.
• Hardware wallets are typically considered to be the safest type of cryptocurrency wallet, as they use a physical device to enhance security in a number of ways. You can learn more about wallets and compare them with our comprehensive guide.

Is Huobi a good investment?

Any cryptocurrency purchase should be evaluated for potential upsides and potential risks. Before investing in HT, here a few points to consider:

• Huobi exchange: HT’s utility is predominantly tied to the Huobi Global Exchange. To capitalize on the token’s perks, it may make sense for the majority of investors to already be using the Huobi exchange or planning on switching to it in the near future. Using Huobi isn’t a requirement for owning the token, but the token's value is closely linked to Huobi’s userbase, earnings and success as a platform. Those that don’t want exposure to Huobi’s ecosystem may wish to invest elsewhere.
• Token buyback: To deal with inflation, Huobi Group has introduced a token buyback program. 20% of the company’s earnings are reserved for this program in an attempt to keep the price of HT somewhat sturdy.
• Competition: The Huobi exchange is one of the biggest trading platforms within the cryptocurrency industry. The exchange provides users with a vast range of trading pairs and earning options. However, quite a number of popular exchanges offer loyalty/rewards in native cryptocurrency. This may deter HT adoption. It could be worth comparing Huobi’s exchange, ecosystem and tokenomics to its competitors' such as Binance (and BNB) or Crypto.com (and CRO).
• Regulatory issues: Huobi’s exchange has been on the receiving end of criticism due to its loose regulations and minimal KYC/AML checks. Furthermore, citizens in America cannot use Huobi’s exchange, so they may want to consider investing in an alternative coin to get the most out of their assets.
