Here we explain the basics of trading CMTE, the KRC-20 token minted on the Kaspa blockDAG (a superior blockchain) through the KaspaCom marketplace.
Acquiring CMTE
To own your first CMTE you can join Crypto T.E. and EasyOnlineAdvertising.com, where you can earn CMTE every day simply by being an active member. Enter your Kasware wallet (Chrome/Brave extension) address in your profile(s) there, so you can receive your CMTE.
Trading CMTE
Once you have a Kasware wallet, you can buy and sell CMTE on the KaspaCom marketplace. You do this by connecting your Kasware wallet to KaspaCom (top right corner of any KaspaCom page). To connect your wallet, you need the Kasware extension for the Chrome/Brave browser. You already have that extension at this point because you already created your Kasware wallet.
Follow the simple steps, secure your wallet with a password, and your Kasware wallet is connected. Remember to also save your Kasware wallet seed phrase (the 12 or 24 words), which is your ‘master key’ to your wallet, in a safe place (offline).
Since CMTE is minted on the Kaspa blockDAG, all transaction fees are paid in Kaspa (KAS). This is similar to ERC-20 token transactions on the Etherium (ETH) blockchain, where transactions are paid in ETH. The big difference between the two is that KAS transactions are tiny – generally as low as US$0.0000036 per transaction (compared to US$0.466 on the Etherium network).
To ensure that the fees of your CMTE transaction(s) are secured before sending, you need a minimum of 5 KAS in your Kasware wallet. That’s currently around US$0.45 (45 dollar cents). This is because the Kaspa miners need to get paid to process your transaction(s).
To ensure that the fees for CMTE trading (when you place a sell order) are secured, the same principle applies. Additionally, 1 KAS will be locked when you place a confirmed CMTE sell order.
The easiest way to buy Kaspa for these purposes, without the need to join a crypto exchange, is through Topper Pay. Once your KAS purchase has been confirmed on Topper Pay, you’ll receive your purchased amount of KAS in your Kasware wallet.
In the example below you see a sell order being placed:
- Sell order volume (quantity): 5,000 CMTE
- Sell order profit margin: 5%
- Price per token: automatically sets
- Total price: automatically sets
