How to buy crypto on CryptoWorld

CryptoWorld uses a separate platform account for recorded spot orders. This guide explains the order flow, the fees shown before submission, and how it differs from holding crypto in your own wallet.

Platform orders are paper ledger orders. They are not routed to an exchange and do not create an onchain transaction. Asset custody remains with your own wallet when you use the self-custody side of the platform.

Before you start

Step-by-step spot purchase

  1. Open Spot trading from the main navigation.
  2. Select a market such as BTC/USD, ETH/USD, or another supported asset.
  3. Choose Buy.
  4. Enter the amount of USDC you want to spend. The ticket estimates the quantity at the current reference price.
  5. Review the order value and the platform fee. Crypto spot trading uses a 0.10% fee; commodity reference markets use 0.08%, and stock reference markets use 0.05%.
  6. Submit the order. The platform records the fill and updates the platform asset balance.
  7. Open Activity or the order history panel to review the result.

How the price is determined

Crypto reference prices come from public market data feeds. The interface shows the source and update time near the chart. Commodity and equity reference markets may use delayed public data or reference models. A paper fill can differ from an executable exchange quote.

Platform account vs self-custody wallet

A platform order changes the recorded USDC and asset balances inside CryptoWorld. It does not move coins to your MetaMask or Coinbase Wallet. To hold assets in self-custody, connect an EVM wallet and use the wallet receive address. Never send assets to a contract address or a network you have not selected.

Fees and limits

Risk notes

Crypto assets are volatile. A platform paper balance is not a bank deposit, brokerage balance, or blockchain asset. Do not treat historical reference prices or target yields as a promise of future results. Use only funds you can afford to lose and verify every wallet address before sending.

Frequently asked questions

Does buying crypto on CryptoWorld send coins to my wallet?

No. The platform spot order updates the platform ledger. Onchain transfers are separate and require a connected wallet and network fee.

What fee is charged on a crypto spot order?

The standard crypto spot fee shown in the ticket is 0.10% of the order value.

Can I sell the asset later?

Yes. Use the Sell side in the same spot market, subject to the platform balance and the current reference price.
