Against the background of the current situation, many faced difficulties in using fiat money - rubles, dollars, hryvnias. The ruble has depreciated and it is not always possible to transfer it to foreign cards. The dollar is forbidden to be transferred to other countries and export abroad is limited. The hryvnia also depreciated.

This situation confirms the old thesis: the money that is stored in a bank or on a card is not your money. Cryptocurrencies help solve this problem. In this guide, I will give detailed instructions for buying cryptocurrency.

1. Download the Metamask application and create a decentralized cryptocurrency wallet.

2. How to buy cryptocurrency for fiat money through the Binance exchange.

We register on Binance and go through verification - it can be completed using a passport, international passport, identity card, driver's license. If you can register an account not for a Russian or Ukrainian document, in the current situation it's better to do it :)

- In the upper menu on the left, select "Buy cryptocurrency" → "Credit / debit card". As the debit currency, select rubles. In the "Get" field, select the desired stablecoin - USDT, BUSD, USDC. Click "Continue", choose a card and buy.
- You can buy via p2p from another user on the Binance platform.
- To sell cryptocurrency, the mechanism is the same, via p2p.

3. Also, you can exchange buy and sell cryptocurrencies for fiat money using crypto debit cards. For example, you can sell ethereum for euros using the TRASTRA card https://trastra.com/coins/sell-eth-for-euro/ .

Now you have a cryptocurrency on a decentralized wallet, which means that no state or organization can take it away. Go to the Light Side - use the money that belongs to you.
