How to buy Polycat Finance (FISH) in the UK

Learn how to buy Polycat Finance (FISH) in our step-by-step guide.

Where to buy Polycat Finance in the UK

It looks like FISH may not be available to purchase on an exchange in the UK.

You can still purchase FISH by using a decentralised exchange (DEX) instead. decentralised exchanges are web applications that run on blockchains like Polygon and allow users to trade any asset directly with one another.

Decentralised 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 decentralised exchanges first if you're unfamiliar.

How to purchase FISH using a decentralised exchange.
  1. Find FISH on a decentralised exchange and make sure Polycat Finance can be traded for MATIC which is the native asset of Polygon. Popular DEXs on Polygon include QuickSwap, SushiSwap and Balancer.
  2. Buy MATIC to trade for FISH using an exchange like Gemini. You will need to purchase enough MATIC to swap for FISH as well as some MATIC to pay for transaction fees which typically cost no more than a cent.
  3. Transfer the MATIC into a web 3.0 wallet like MetaMask to connect to the DEX.
  4. Trade MATIC for FISH on the DEX of your choice, following the instructions on screen. Make sure to leave enough MATIC in your wallet to pay for gas.
  5. Wait for the transaction to finalise and the FISH tokens will arrive in your wallet.
  6. You may now keep the tokens in your web 3.0 wallet or transfer them somewhere more secure like a hardware wallet.

You can follow the same process when you want to sell your tokens, or come back to this page to see if they can now be traded on an exchange in the UK.

Best Polycat Finance wallets to store your FISH

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

Is Polycat Finance a good investment?

When purchasing any cryptocurrency make sure to understand the unique risks associated with the token, as well as the volatile nature of the marketplace. In particular, buyers of FISH may want to consider the following:
  • Anonymous developers. There are no public details of the developer team available, which leaves the platform at an increased risk of being compromised internally, in what is colloquially known as a 'rug-pull'. A rug-pull is a situation where someone from the development team orchestrates a situation that allows them to essentially steal user-funds deposited in the protocol.
  • Competition. Polycat Finance operates on Polygon, which is still a relatively new blockchain. This means that Polycat has a good chance to capture market share. However, in the wider context of DeFi protocols, it competes with many other similar platforms such as Yearn Finance, Pancakeswap and Harvest Finance which have more established communities.
  • Polygon. Polycat operates on Polygon, which is a sidechain (or layer-2) on Ethereum. This means you first need to transfer your funds from Ethereum to Polygon before you can use them on Polycat.
