KSM Is Now Available on Changelly
We are happy to announce that KSM by Kusama has joined the family of the over 200 cryptocurrencies available for exchange and purchase on Changelly! Starting today, users will be able to buy KSM with fiat or swap it with other digital assets at floating rates on our platform.
Kusama is an early and unrefined version of Polkadot. It essentially works as proving grounds, allowing developers to test out Polkadot’s staking, governance, nomination, and validation functionality in a real environment. Just like its more refined cousin, Kusama also lets teams build and deploy parachains, offering them the same unprecedented interoperability and scalability Polkadot does.
KSM is Kusama Network’s native token. It provides users with the ability to validate, nominate validators, bond parachains, and pay for interop message passing. KSM also lets users participate in the project’s on-chain decentralized and permission-less governance, allowing token owners to vote on various proposals. Kusama’s on-chain governance procedure is almost 4 times faster than that of Polkadot, creating a perfect environment for quick project development.
“Kusama and Polkadot are revolutionizing the crypto industry. There are tons of innovative crypto projects out there, but they aren’t worth much if they only work in isolation, which unfortunately happens too often. As a result, interoperability is essential – and nobody does it better than these two projects. We are thrilled to list KSM on our platform, and are sure that this collaboration will benefit both our users and the token.”
Changelly CEO Eric Benz
