How to Buy Aavegotchi (GHST)

CryptoPunks, Hashmasks, NBA Top Shot and now, Aavegotchi - participating in the NFT space has never been more exciting!

If you’re unfamiliar, Aavegotchi is a crypto collectibles game built on the Ethereum network where participants can create their very own ghost avatars as NFTs and interact with the Aavegotchi digital universe.

GHST, the governance and utility cryptocurrency token of the Aavegotchi metaverse enables holders to purchase digital items, including wearables for their avatars, or use them to vote and participate in the game’s development.
 

Whether you wish to purchase a ghost avatar, or upgrade the one you own, you will need to buy GHST.

There are a number of ways to buy GHST. Many find that it is easiest to purchase Aavegotchi cryptocurrency through a trusted global exchange like Kraken.

Once you buy GHST, you’ll need somewhere to safely store your cryptocurrency. 

Kraken is secure, but it’s always safest to keep your GHST in a wallet, a software or hardware device that stores the public and private keys required to make crypto transactions.

Aavegotchi is an Ethereum-built platform, meaning GHST can be stored in any of the many Ethereum wallets. If you’re looking for easy transactions, mobile and web wallets are the best, while hardware wallets are perhaps best suited for secure, long-term storage. 

When choosing a crypto wallet for your GHST, first spend some time thinking about what you plan to do with your tokens to find a wallet that fits your needs.
