What's Drift?

Drift is like a special kind of digital toy that helps people play together in a big online playground. It exists to make sure everyone can join in the fun without needing a lot of different toys. Drift solves the problem of making sure everyone can play together easily, no matter where they are, by using the same kind of digital toy.

How can I buy Drift?

Why do people buy Drift?

People buy Drift because it allows them to participate in a digital ecosystem where they can use it for various online activities. Drift is used in applications that require fast and secure transactions. It is also adopted by platforms that value privacy and efficiency. However, it's important to understand that Drift's value comes from its utility in these systems, not from making money.

Things to know before buying Drift in the United States

In the United States, cryptocurrencies like Drift are legal but regulated. You must complete KYC and AML checks when setting up an account. Be aware that any gains from selling Drift may be subject to capital gains tax. If you earn Drift through staking or other means, it might be considered taxable income. Always consult a tax professional for detailed advice.

What are other ways to own Drift?

You can obtain Drift without buying it by participating in airdrops, where you receive tokens for free. Some platforms offer Learn-and-Earn programs where you earn Drift by completing educational tasks. You might also earn Drift by staking, which involves holding and supporting the network. Each method requires effort and understanding of the risks involved, such as market volatility and technical requirements.

How can I store my Drift?

To keep your Drift safe, you can use custodial wallets, where a service holds your tokens, or non-custodial wallets, where you control them. Hot wallets are online and convenient but less secure, while cold wallets are offline and more secure. Always back up your wallet and keep recovery phrases safe. Use strong passwords and enable two-factor authentication to protect your assets.
