— December 5, 2017 comments off

IOTA became a trending cryptocurrency in a very short period of time. IOTA is nothing but the revolutionary new CryptoCurrency built on Tangle (read: Whitepaper). A blockless distributed ledger which is scalable, lightweight and for the first time ever makes it possible to transfer value without any fees.

You can buy IOTA, like other cryptocurrencies by using something called a Crypto Exchange. Please click below for guide on how to buy IOTA on the exchange you wish. In this article, we will show you how to buy IOTA in the USA using Binance Crypto trading website.

Head over to registration page for Binance. Enter your details. When you click register you will then need to verify your email. Checkout IOTA Buying guide which is published earlier today.
Step 1: How to buy IOTA - Sign up to Binance.com
Once you have verified your email address and once you log back, Hover your mouse over the Funds link in the navigation bar across the top of the page. It should then reveal a drop down menu. Click Deposits Withdrawls
Step 2: How to buy IOTA - Deposit to Binance Link

You will see a lot of cryptocurrencies on this page. Find bitcoin BTC and click the Deposit link at the end. This will then slide down and reveal your receiving address
Step 3: How to buy IOTA - Deposit BTC to Binance
Now we need to send some Bitcoins to Binance so we can trade them in like we did for the Bitfinex steps above. So sign up to a CryptoCurrency Wallet Provider, Again I recommend Coinbase and purchase your Bitcoins using what ever currency you wish.
Again, from our Coinbase account that we have just created and bought our bitcoins with we will need to send them to the address that you generated on Binance. You do this by going to Accounts and then clicking the Send button under the wallet of the currency you purchased.
Step 5: How to buy IOTA - Send currency to Binance
After you click Send, a dialogue window will pop up and this will ask you to enter an address to send bitcoin to. This is the address that we got from Binance when you clicked deposit. This dialogue is also where you will be able to enter the amount of bitcoin you want to send to buy IOTA with.
Note: Sending to Binance may take a few hours. So not panic if it is not instant. It could take 12 hours. Especially with all this BTC Folk stuff going on.
Once your bitcoin has been received by Binance hover over the Exchange link at the top left of the page next to the Binance logo. This will show you a drop down menu. Click Basic
Step 6: How to buy IOTA - Start trading on Binance
Find and click your trading pair in the right hand column. Because we are wanting to buy IOTA with bitcoin we are looking for IOTA/BTC. Obviously if you sent Etherum over instead you would be looking for IOTA/ETH.
Step 7: How to buy IOTA - Trading BTC and IOTA
You will now be able to see the buying form. Fill this out with the amount of IOTA you want to buy and then click the Buy IOTA button.
Step 8: How to buy IOTA - Buying form for BTC and IOTA
All Done. That might take some time to go through. Even though IOTA is fast it is the exchange that you are dealing with.

IOTA:  Top 3 by the end of 2018?

The ICO for IOTA started in 2015. It started small but gained a lot of traction when it got listed by Bitfinex. Right now, it stands at 5th position on coinmarketcap. It shows immense promise as it solves significant problems such as transaction fees, offline mode, and scalability.

There will never be a fork, unlike other cryptocurrencies. Instead, the more nodes the network joins, the better the network will become. It will become faster, more secure and scalable.

Considering the market cap and the growth that IOTA is showing right now, it will grow more in the upcoming weeks or even months. Breaking top 3 by the end of 2018 is a different story. It can reach 4th position, but it is hard for it to beat BCH for now.
