How do I find the best places to buy Storj?

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 New Zealand 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 Storj?

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 Storj.

  • 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 STORJ 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 Storj with a credit or debit card?

Once you've created an account, you will need to deposit funds to buy STORJ 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 STORJ on the following exchanges:

Exchange
Bank deposit
Card deposit
Crypto deposit
Buy STORJ
Go to FTX Cryptocurrency Exchange
Go to Swyftx Cryptocurrency Exchange
Go to Binance 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 STORJ by trading it for another cryptocurrency like Bitcoin or a stablecoin. This varies between exchanges though, so you will need to search for STORJ on the spot market to see what cryptocurrencies it can be traded for.

What is the easiest way to buy Storj?

The easiest way to buy STORJ 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 STORJ, 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 Storj has been performing recently.

Best Storj wallets to store your STORJ

You can keep your STORJ 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 Storj a good investment?

Storj uses a novel approach to tackle the issues associated with traditional cloud storage systems. However, investing in the platform and the token does not come without associated risks. Below are some factors to keep in mind before buying STORJ:
  • Supply: The maximum supply of tokens is fixed at 425 million. Other than through a cryptocurrency exchange, STORJ tokens can only be acquired by storage providers and node operators that farm tokens on the network by lending or staking.
  • Web3 infrastructure: Storj's network is built on the Ethereum blockchain and is compatible with decentralised Web3 applications. It allows users to remain in complete control of their own data via an automated secure system. This readiness for Web3 could place Storj in a stronger position compared to other data storage providers.
  • Adoption: The demand for the STORJ token rests with the adoption of the Storj network. If market share cannot be captured from traditional data storage providers, this will ultimately devalue the STORJ token.
  • Cost-efficient: The network operates Tardigrade, a developer tool that claims to be better than or equivalent to major cloud providers for reliability, durability, performance and security. The project also holds the potential to save businesses millions of dollars on cloud storage costs. Users of Tardigrade are incentivised to pay using STORJ tokens and are rewarded a bonus on any STORJ token deposit made by them. This helps users to cut down their cloud storage costs even further.
