Frequently Asked Questions

What is the best way to buy Celer Network (CELR) with Norwegian Krone (NOK)?

To purchase Celer Network (CELR) with NOK, you typically need to use a cryptocurrency exchange that acts as a fiat on-ramp for Norwegian Krone. The process involves registering on an exchange, completing KYC/AML verification (often using Norwegian BankID), and depositing NOK via methods like a direct bank transfer or debit/credit card. Since a direct NOK/CELR trading pair is uncommon, the standard route is to first buy a major cryptocurrency like BTC or ETH with your NOK, and then trade it for CELR on the exchange's order book.

How does Celer's cBridge facilitate low-cost cross-chain transfers?

Celer's cBridge is a decentralized and non-custodial asset bridge that leverages Celer's State Guardian Network (SGN). Instead of using a complex lock-and-mint mechanism, it uses a liquidity pool model. Users can transfer assets from one blockchain to another almost instantly by having liquidity providers front the funds on the destination chain. This off-chain scaling approach significantly reduces the latency and transaction costs associated with direct on-chain cross-chain swaps, making it an efficient solution for inter-chain messaging and value transfer.

What kind of fees can I expect when using a NOK fiat on-ramp to acquire CELR?

There are several potential fees. First, your Norwegian bank might charge a fee for the transfer to the cryptocurrency exchange. Second, the exchange will have a deposit fee, which varies by method (bank transfers are often cheaper than cards). Third, you'll encounter a trading fee when you exchange your NOK for a base crypto and then trade that for CELR. This is usually a small percentage of the transaction value. Finally, when you withdraw your CELR to a private digital wallet, there will be a network withdrawal fee to cover the blockchain transaction cost.

What is the core function of the CELR token within Celer's Layer-2 scaling solution?

The CELR token is integral to Celer's network security and economy. Its primary utility is within the State Guardian Network (SGN), a proof-of-stake (PoS) blockchain that secures Celer's state channel network and acts as a message router for inter-chain communication. CELR holders can stake their tokens to become validators in the SGN, earning staking rewards and transaction fees for ensuring the security and liveness of Celer's off-chain scaling and cross-chain transfer infrastructure, like the cBridge.

Are there any specific security measures to take when trading NOK for CELR?

Yes, secure trading practices are crucial. Firstly, only use reputable cryptocurrency exchanges that are regulated and comply with KYC/AML laws. Enable two-factor authentication (2FA) on your exchange account for an extra layer of security. After acquiring your CELR digital asset, it is highly recommended to transfer it from the exchange to a personal, non-custodial digital wallet where you control the private keys. This minimizes the risk of loss from a potential exchange hack. Always double-check wallet addresses before confirming any blockchain transaction.

Why might a direct NOK/CELR trading pair have low liquidity?

A direct NOK/CELR pair would likely have low liquidity because it is a niche trading pair. Liquidity is concentrated in pairs with high trading volume, such as BTC/USD or ETH/EUR. The Norwegian Krone (NOK) has a smaller global user base compared to the USD or EUR, and Celer Network (CELR) is one of many altcoins. The combined demand for this specific pair is not high enough for most exchanges to justify creating and supporting a liquid order book for it. This results in wider spreads and potential slippage for traders.
