About
Celo (CELO)
Celo (CELO) is a mobile-first blockchain platform focused on increasing cryptocurrency adoption among smartphone users, thereby fostering financial inclusion worldwide. Its core technology is designed to make digital assets and decentralized applications (dApps) easily accessible, particularly in emerging markets. The Celo network employs a Proof-of-Stake (PoS) consensus mechanism, ensuring network security and enabling on-chain governance. A key distinguishing feature is its innovative address-based identity layer, which allows users to map phone numbers to wallet addresses, simplifying peer-to-peer transactions and enhancing user experience. Celo is EVM-compatible, facilitating the deployment of smart contracts and the growth of its DeFi ecosystem.
The platform hosts a family of stablecoins, such as cUSD (Celo Dollar) and cEUR (Celo Euro), which are pegged to fiat currencies and collateralized by a diversified basket of crypto assets, including the native utility token, CELO. The CELO token itself plays a crucial role in the network's tokenomics, used for participating in governance decisions, paying transaction fees on the decentralized network, and for staking to secure the blockchain and earn rewards. Celo’s architecture includes an ultralight client, optimized for mobile devices with limited bandwidth, and it notably positions itself as a carbon-negative blockchain. Celo aims to be a foundational Web3 infrastructure for building a more inclusive and accessible financial system, leveraging blockchain technology for social impact and real-world utility.

Frequently asked questions
-
What does the THB/CELO trading pair represent in the digital asset market?
The THB/CELO pair represents the exchange rate between the Thai Baht (THB), a fiat currency, and CELO, the native utility and governance token of the Celo network. Celo is a mobile-first, carbon-negative blockchain designed for real-world payments and financial inclusion. Trading this pair allows you to use THB to directly acquire a stake in Celo's Proof-of-Stake ecosystem. -
What are the common methods to buy CELO using Thai Baht (THB)?
To buy CELO with THB, the most direct fiat on-ramp is through a centralized cryptocurrency exchange regulated by the Thai SEC. These platforms require KYC/AML compliance. Common payment methods include Thai QR code payments (PromptPay) and direct mobile banking transfers, offering fast and low-cost funding to your trading account before executing a buy order on the THB/CELO order book. -
How does Celo's mobile-first design benefit users transacting with THB?
Celo's key innovation is its ability to map wallet addresses to phone numbers through a decentralized protocol called ODIS. For a mobile-centric market like Thailand, this simplifies peer-to-peer transactions, making sending digital assets as easy as sending a text. This feature, combined with low transaction fees payable in stablecoins like cUSD, makes it ideal for remittances and daily commerce, bridging the gap between the traditional THB banking system and blockchain utility. -
What are the typical fees when converting THB to CELO on an exchange?
When converting THB to CELO, you'll encounter two main types of fees. First, a deposit fee for your THB, which is often very low or zero for Thai QR or mobile bank transfers. Second, a trading fee, which is a small percentage (e.g., 0.1% - 0.25%) of the total trade value, charged by the cryptocurrency exchange for matching your buy order. Finally, when withdrawing your CELO to a private digital wallet, a network withdrawal fee applies, which is determined by the Celo blockchain's current gas price. -
Once I buy CELO with THB, how can I securely store my digital asset?
For secure storage of your CELO, it is highly recommended to transfer it from the exchange to a self-custody digital wallet where you control the private keys. For the Celo ecosystem, the native Valora wallet is a popular mobile option. For maximum security and long-term holding, consider a hardware wallet (cold storage) like a Ledger or Trezor. This practice protects your assets from exchange-related counterparty risks.
