Buying · Q&A
3 QUESTIONSHow do I buy USDG?+
On exchanges (KYC there) or on a DEX with a self-custody wallet (no KYC). Minting and redeeming with Paxos needs an institutional account. The token runs on X Layer / Robinhood Chain / Solana (+5).
Do I need KYC to buy USDG?+
Not on the secondary market: USDG can be bought on a DEX without identity verification. Minting it directly with the issuer does require KYC.
Can I buy USDG in the EU?+
Yes. USDG is authorised under MiCA — issued in the EU by Paxos Issuance Europe Oy, supervised by FIN-FSA (Finland) — so EU-regulated exchanges and brokers may offer it.
