Where to buy Loom Network (NEW) in Australia

It looks like LOOM may not be available to purchase on an exchange in Australia.

You can still purchase LOOM by using a decentralised exchange (DEX) instead. Decentralised exchanges are web applications that run on blockchains like Ethereum and allow users to trade any asset directly with one another.

Decentralised exchanges (DEX) are unregulated and run using autonomous pieces of code known as smart contracts. To use a DEX you must interact with the blockchain directly, which is not recommended for novice users. Please learn about decentralised exchanges first if you're unfamiliar.

How to purchase LOOM using a decentralised exchange.
  1. Find LOOM on a decentralised exchange and make sure Loom Network (NEW) can be traded for ETH which is the native asset of Ethereum. Popular DEXs include Uniswap, SushiSwap and 1INCH.
  2. Buy ETH to trade for LOOM using an exchange like Binance. You will need to purchase enough ETH to swap for LOOM as well as ETH to pay for transaction fees on the Ethereum network (known as gas). You can use a service like Etherscan to get an idea of how much gas fees currently cost.
  3. Transfer the ETH into a web 3.0 wallet like MetaMask to connect to the DEX.
  4. Trade ETH for LOOM on the DEX of your choice, following the instructions on screen. Make sure to leave enough ETH in your wallet to pay for gas.
  5. Wait for the transaction to finalise and the LOOM tokens will arrive in your wallet.
  6. You may now keep the tokens in your web 3.0 wallet or transfer them somewhere more secure like a hardware wallet.

You can follow the same process when you want to sell your tokens, or come back to this page to see if they can now be traded on an exchange in Australia.

Is Loom Network (NEW) a good investment?

If you are wondering whether or not to buy LOOM, its integral to ensure you understand the coin's function and the underlying platform's intended purpose. Here are a few factors to consider regarding Loom Network:

  • CryptoZombies. Loom Network are the team behind CryptoZombies, an interactive code school designed to teach developers how to write smart contracts in Ethereum’s Solidity programming language. Those interested in investing in LOOM to get involved on the platform may want to check the tutorial out and learn how to build dApps for themselves.
  • Competition. Loom Network are one of a number of protocols intending to improve the scalability and interoperability of Ethereum-based dApps. Enjin is one of their main competitors for a share in the market. A key difference between the two is that Enjin built and runs their own Ethereum sidechain, whereas Loom uses Plasma technology to utilise the Ethereum network.
  • Token use-case. Whereas other networks often require their utility tokens to be used for transaction fees or payments, Loom is one of the few where the token is used specifically for membership. If you want access to a certain application built on Loom’s infrastructure (or to build one yourself), investing in LOOM tokens will likely make sense. LOOM tokens can also be staked via the network's native wallet.
