# How do I get $KDA?

There are several ways to buy $KDA, the native token of the Kadena blockchain, such as:

1. Cryptocurrency Exchanges: You can buy $KDA on several major cryptocurrency exchanges such as Binance, Huobi, OKEx, and KuCoin.
2. OTC (Over-The-Counter) trading: you can buy $KDA directly from someone who already owns it through OTC trading, which is a way to buy and sell large amounts of cryptocurrency without going through a centralized exchange.
3. Staking: you can earn $KDA by participating in staking, which is a process of holding and validating transactions on the Kadena blockchain.
4. Mining: you can mine $KDA by participating in the consensus process of the Kadena blockchain.
5. Koala Wallet: You can purchase directly from the app using a credit or debit card. 

It is important to note that the availability and accessibility of these options may vary depending on your location and regulations. It is also important to conduct your own research and due diligence before buying $KDA or any other cryptocurrency.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.arkade.fun/nft-guide/wallets/how-do-i-get-usdkda.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
