Where to buy MAI
It looks like MIMATIC may not be available to purchase on an exchange in the US.
You can still purchase MIMATIC by using a decentralized exchange (DEX) instead. decentralized exchanges are web applications that run on blockchains like Polygon and allow users to trade any asset directly with one another.
Decentralized exchanges (DEX) are unregulated and run using autonomous pieces of code known as smart contracts. To use a DEX you must interact with the blockchain directly, which is not recommended for novice users. Please learn about decentralized exchanges first if you're unfamiliar.
How to purchase MIMATIC using a decentralized exchange.
- Find MIMATIC on a decentralized exchange and make sure MAI can be traded for MATIC which is the native asset of Polygon. Popular DEXs on Polygon include QuickSwap, SushiSwap and Balancer.
- Buy MATIC to trade for MIMATIC using an exchange like Gemini. You will need to purchase enough MATIC to swap for MIMATIC as well as some MATIC to pay for transaction fees which typically cost no more than a cent.
- Transfer the MATIC into a web 3.0 wallet like MetaMask to connect to the DEX.

Is MAI a good investment?
Buying cryptocurrency can be a risky endeavor, but there are precautions you can take to help mitigate risk, such as learning more about MAI before buying:
- Don't FOMO buy coins: Spend time researching a coin before you decide to invest, particularly if the coin's price is spiking for seemingly no reason.
- Stick with well known exchanges: Unless you're an experienced cryptocurrency trader, stick to more well known crypto exchanges to help avoid the possibility of losing your money in a scam. When possible, store your crypto on a hardware wallet instead of on an exchange.
- Look into the coin's founders and developers: Anonymous teams are often a red flag, so if you can't find details on the creator of the coin you may want to consider investing in a different cryptocurrency.
