⚠️ We recommend sending a test transaction of 10 USDC first and confirming with us once it's completed. Only then you should transfer the remaining amount to the same recipient. This minimizes the risks and ensures no funds are lost during the transfer.

Done! Your BTEX purchase is now complete.

⚠️ You will be able to see your tokens on your account at the time of the listing on Blocktrade exchange.
