How And Where To Buy CargoX (CXO) - Step By Step Guide
CargoXCXO can be bought on several crypto exchanges. However, just like most of the other cryptos, you will have to trade your FIAT ($) to a cryptocurrency before moving on to the crypto exchange of your choice. We will be guiding you through the whole journey on how to buy and store CXO.
Step 1: Register on Coinbase Click Here To Show Coinbase GuideCoinbase is one of the largest and most secure FIAT-to-crypto exchanges in the world. And this is where most people in fact start their crypto journey. Coinbase is as of writing this article offering 240 different cryptocurrencies but we are going to focus on buying Tether (USDT) today. Click the button below and sign up to get a bonus of $10 in BTC when you buy $100 worth of any cryptocurrency.
Getting startedThe first thing you need to do when Coinbase has loaded is to click the “Get started” button in the top right corner. After that, you will have to fill out your first name, last name, email, and password. Then click the “I certify that I am 18 years of age or older” box and the “Create account” button.
It is really important that you fill out your real information as Coinbase will need it to verify your identity. A strong password is really important to keep your account and funds safe from hackers.
Verify your emailYou should have by now received a confirmation email in your inbox. However, if you can’t find it in the inbox make sure to check the spam folder before taking any further action. After that open the email and click on the link inside of it to confirm your account.
Two-step verificationNow it’s time to enable 2-factor authentication (2FA) for your account. The 2FA will add one more layer of safety to your account and is an industry-standard these days. So fill out your phone number and then hit the “Send code” button. Then fill in the code you received and continue to the next step.
Verify your identityOnly one more step before we can start trading on Coinbase! This step might be a bit scary to some but there is nothing to worry about. Coinbase is a regulated company and is trusted by 56 million verified customers. This whole Know-Your-Customer (KYC) process should not take longer than 15 minutes. Check out Coinbase’s about us page if you still would like to learn a bit more about them.
Step 2: Buy USDT with Credit/Debit Card or Bank Account Add a payment methodAfter Coinbase has verified your identity you will have to add a payment method to your account. They usually only offer 2 different payment methods. The payment methods available are usually Credit/Debit card & Bank Account.
Pros of using a Credit/Debit card:
Faster purchases Recommended for smaller purchases Easy to useCons of using a Credit/Debit card:
Pros of using a Bank Account:
Recommended for large purchases Needed if you want to sell Lower feesCons of using a Bank Account:
Purchases takes longer to processIn conclusion, use a credit/debit card for smaller purchases and a bank account for larger purchases.
Buy USDTClick on the “Trade” tab in the column to the left then find USDT and click “Buy”. After that, an order preview should pop up on the screen. Fill out the amount of FIAT ($) you want to buy USDT for (If you buy for $100 you will get $10 in BTC as a bonus!). Click “Buy now”.
Congratulations! You have just bought your first piece of Tether (USDT)!
Step 3: Move USDT from Coinbase to an Altcoin ExchangeUniswap empowers developers, liquidity providers, and traders to participate in a financial marketplace that is open and accessible to all.
The process of buying a token on Uniswap is a little bit different than on a traditional centralized exchange (CEX). Uniswap is a decentralized exchange (DEX) and you are not required to register or verify your identity to be able to trade there.
DEX’s does however require you to have an altcoin wallet to be able to trade. This means you are 100% responsible for that wallet and the private key attached to it. If you somehow manage to lose said private key or send tokens to the wrong address they are basically lost forever. So be really careful and make sure to follow our step-by-step guide on how to buy CXO.
Trade USDT to ETH on Binance or MEXCUniswap runs on the Ethereum (ETH) network and the main trading pair for tokens is ETH. All the tokens in the ETH network are called ERC-20 tokens. CXO is also an ERC-20 token and the first step of the process is to transfer your USDT to either Binance or MEXC and then trade it for ETH. So let’s start with that!
BinanceActivate 2FA and verify identity
Once you have created a new account on Binance by following similar steps as we did on Coinbase you will be prompted to activate 2-factor authentication (2FA).
It has become an industry standard so I would highly suggest activating 2FA on any site that you want extra protection on.
You might also be required to verify your identity to be able to trade. This entirely depends on the exchange policies and your local regulations. The verification is very straightforward and should not take more than 30 minutes to possibly a few days depending on Binance. Once the verification is done you will have higher limits and access to everything you need.
Step 4: Deposit USDT to Binance Find USDT in your walletIt’s time to head over to the wallet and deposit your newly bought USDT. Click on “Fiat and Spot” under the “Wallet” tab.
Find or search for USDT and click “Deposit”. This will bring you to the deposit page.
If this is your first time making a cryptocurrency transfer this page might feel a little scary. But there is absolutely nothing to worry about if you read and do everything carefully (just as with your bank account).
First of all, make sure that the “Coin” field is the same as the coin you will be depositing. In this case, we will be depositing USDT. The network should be “BTC” if you are depositing Bitcoin. “ETH” if you are depositing Ethereum and “BSC (BEP20)” if you are depositing USDT.
Next up is the actual address to your wallet, which basically looks like an alphabet and number soup. This is the unique public address where your USDT will be stored on Binance. Click on the two overlapping papers to copy the address.
Note: If you feel unsure about what you are doing, make sure to check out Binance FAQ section for answers.
Deposit USDT from CoinbaseHead over back to Coinbase and click on the “Send/Recieve” button in the top right corner.
Paste your address under the “To” field. Also, make sure to double-check that the address on Binance and the address you just paste are the same. Because there is some malware out there that can alter the pasted address. What that means is that if the address does not match you are basically sending your precious USDT to someone else’s wallet. This is something we really do not want to happen!
Once you have double-checked the address you can enter how much USDT you want to send and a message (if you want to). Then go ahead and click on the “Continue” button.
You should receive a confirmation email within a minute. Click the link inside of that email to confirm the transfer you just submitted. Your USDT is now on their way to Binance.
The transfer often only takes a few minutes, but can sometimes take a few hours at worst. It all depends on how congested the USDT blockchain is. You will get a confirmation email from Binance once the USDT has been deposited into your account.
It’s now the best time to buy ETH. So let’s jump right into step 5!
Step 5: Trade USDT for ETH Find the ETH/USDT pairAlright, let’s buy some ETH. Start by clicking on the “Market” button at the top, after that type ETH in the search field.
Click on “BTC Markets” if you bought BTC, “ALTS Market” if you bought ETH, and “FIAT Markets” if you bought USDT. After that, you should see the ETH/USDT pair. Click on the “Trade” button.

This button tells Binance that you want to place a order for the amount of USDT filled out in the “Total” field. A market buy will try to fill your order at any cost, so be careful if you are trying to trade a lot.Once you have filled out the total amount of USDT you want to trade for ETH, click that “Buy” button.
If the order went through you are now a owner of ETH. Congratulations!
MEXCActivate 2FA and verify identity
Once you have created a new account on MEXC by following similar steps as we did on Coinbase you will be prompted to activate 2-factor authentication (2FA).
It has become an industry standard so I would highly suggest activating 2FA on any site that you want extra protection on.

Next up is the actual address to your wallet, which basically looks like an alphabet and number soup. This is the unique public address where your USDT will be stored on MEXC. Click on the “Click to generate the address” button and then the two overlapping papers to copy the address.
Note: If you feel unsure about what you are doing, make sure to check out MEXC FAQ section for answers.

Step 6: Create an altcoin walletNote: This is one of the most important steps of the whole process so make sure to follow it carefully. Do under no circumstances store your seed phrase/private key online or on your computer. We recommend writing down your seed phrase/private key on 2 pieces of paper and store them in 2 separate safe places.
The first thing we need to do is add the MetaMask extension/plugin to either Google Chrome, Firefox, or Brave browser.
The most secure and easiest way to add the MetaMask extension/plugin is to visit https://metamask.io/ and follow the instructions there.
You should now see this popup on your screen. Click on the “Get Started” button.
The next thing you need to do is click “Create a Wallet” and then read through the next screen and click “I Agree”
Now it’s time to choose a password that will be used to access your wallet. This is not your seed phrase/private key. However, it still should be decently strong.
Click “I have read and agree to the Terms of Use” and then click the “Create” button.
Securing the recovery phraseWatch the video and read the text to learn what and how the seed phrase/private key works. After that click on the “Next” button.
Note: This is the most important part of the entire guide, so please pay extra attention while doing this step.
Read the entire page and when you are ready click on “Click here to view secret words”. Then write the secret words down on AT LEAST one piece of paper and store it in a safe place. When you are done, click “Next”
Now you should see your secret backup words in random order. Click on each word in the order as they are written down on your paper. Then click confirm.
Read this last page and then click “All clear”. You have now created and secured your first MetaMask wallet, congratulations!
If you want to be extra secure and are planning to buy a big amount of crypto you should consider a Ledger Cryptosteel storage for your seed phrase.
You should now see the MetaMask icon in the extension bar, click on it to open the interface.
Alright, let’s add the Binance Smart Chain (BSC) and the Matic Mainnet (Polygon). Click on the “Ethereum Mainnet” at the top.
Then go ahead and click on “Custom RPC”. This should bring you to a screen where you can add a new network to your wallet.
Fill out the following information to add the BSC network to your MetaMask wallet.

Note: If you are missing coins from your wallet, make sure to check that you are on the correct network at the top of the MetaMask plugin.
BinanceHead over to your “Fiat and Spot” wallet on Binance. Then either search for ETH or find it in the list, after that click on “Withdraw”.
Open your MetaMask wallet and click on the account name to copy your wallet address.

Click on the “ERC20(ETH)” button to select the correct network, then paste the address in the address field. Click on “Select all” and then click “Submit”. Follow the instructions and then you should have your ETH in the MetaMask wallet in less than a few minutes.
Step 9: Connect to Uniswap and trade ETH for CXOHead over to Uniswap by either clicking the picture above or the button below. Then click on the “Connect Wallet” button at the top.
Something similar to this should now have appeared on your screen. Click on “Metamask”.
Select the account you want to connect to Uniswap and then click “Next”.
Click on “Connect” to connect your wallet to Uniswap. Your account should now be connected.
From here we want to click on “Select a token” and then type in CXO or paste this address 0xb6ee9668771a79be7967ee29a63d4184f8097143. If the token you want to buy is found, then click on it.
Note: If you cannot find the token, It most likely means that Uniswap has delisted it.
Then fill out how many ETH you want to trade for CXO. It should display how many CXO you will receive, otherwise let it load for a couple of seconds. Click on “Swap” once it has loaded. Then you will have to click “Confirm Swap”.
