Buying Safemoon without BNB

My state (New Mexico) apparently does not allow BNB. Tried buying through trust/simplex and the order was cancelled. Support straight up said they cannot sell to New Mexico residents.

How the hell am I supposed to get SafeMoon? I've looked for tutorials but they all say to get BNB!

I'm trying to do this without having to use a VPN or have someone else buy it for me.

Thanks!

  1. BUY BTC ON ANY EXCHANGE (COINBASE, CASHAPP, ANYWHERE)
  2. SWAP BTC FOR BINANCE USING CHANGENOW.IO (WILL SEND TO YOUR TRUST WALLET ADDRESS)
  3. SWAP BNB TO SMART CHAIN IN TRUST WALLET
  4. BUY SAFEMOON USING PANCAKE EXCHANGE :)

easiest way i've found

Use a vpn. You can be in Switzerland in minutes and owning safemoon

Any other way? I'd guess that trust/simplex uses the billing address of the card to allow/deny transactions.

I am having the same exact issue as you. I’m from NY. If anyone does have any other suggestions besides the ones already listed, would love to hear your opinions on how to purchase. Thanks in advance

I'm trying the kucoin route suggested by /a different user (apparently you can't ping here). I'll let you know how it pans out.

Kucoin was a pain in the ass but it worked.

Many banks stop the funding to simplex because it's in Lithuania. Call your bank's fraud department and authorize the transaction. That's what 3 people have done, including myself that I've helped .

The payment went through fine. Support at simplex straight up told me they cannot sell BNB because I live in New Mexico and it is one of the states where they cannot sell it.

I bought some BNB through Crypto.com since bnb was out on trust at that time and sent it back to my trust wallet then bought safemoon. Maybe it’s only simplex that won’t sell to New Mexico

Buy pancake swap?

Is it just me or does KuCoin not support buying BTC in NY as well. I don’t even think binance works in NY so I’m at a lost

Possible.

Try USDT. I was also able to buy some of that on kucoin then trade it for BNB.
