CHow to Buy CTE
Every exchange we track that lists CTE, what the buy costs, and what it costs to take CTE with you afterwards.
CTE is thin on the ground: exactly one exchange we track lists it, HitBTC. With a single venue there is nothing to compare on price, so the thing worth checking is whether withdrawals are open before you buy. The cheapest place to place the order is HitBTC at $2.50 on a $1,000 market buy. CTE has no market-cap listing and none of these exchanges publishes a withdrawal fee for it, so treat the exit cost as unknown until you check the withdrawal screen yourself. Every exchange sends CTE over Ethereum (ERC20), so there is no network to get wrong.

Where to buy CTE
CTE has no market-cap listing we can price it from, so the exit fee is shown in CTE itself rather than in dollars — the amount each exchange deducts when you withdraw. It is still the number that decides where to buy, because it is flat: the smaller your purchase, the more of it the fee eats. The coins column is how many assets each exchange lists in total, from our own sync — not the figure CoinMarketCap prints.

Buying CTE step by step
- Pick a venue from the table. For a coin this size the choice is usually short — 1 exchange lists CTE at all, and the table already shows what you will pay to leave as well as to buy.
- Fund the account. 1 of those exchanges takes fiat, 0 of them by card. Card is fastest and dearest; a bank transfer costs a fraction of it. Depositing a stablecoin you already hold is free on almost every exchange here.
- Place the order. A market order pays the taker fee in the table; a limit order that rests on the book pays the lower maker fee. On a thinly traded coin the spread costs more than either, so a limit order is worth the wait.
- Decide whether to move it. Leaving CTE on the exchange is free but custodial. Moving it to a wallet that supports it costs one withdrawal fee — send a small test amount first, and match the network on both sides.
How to buy CTE — FAQ
Where can I buy CTE?
On 1 exchange we track: HitBTC. The table above has its trading fee, the payment methods it takes and what it charges to withdraw CTE.
What is the cheapest way to buy CTE?
We cannot put a dollar figure on it: CTE has no market-cap listing, so there is no price to convert its withdrawal fee into. What we can compare is the two halves separately — the lowest trading fee is $2.50 per $1,000 at HitBTC. Work out which matters more from the size of your buy.
Can I buy CTE with a credit card?
None of the exchanges listing CTE takes a card for it directly. The usual route is to buy USDT with a card on an exchange that does, withdraw it, and trade it for CTE on one of the venues above. Budget for the card charge, the USDT withdrawal fee and the trade.
Do I have to pay a fee to withdraw CTE?
Every exchange charges one, as a flat amount of CTE per network rather than a percentage. We do not have a priced figure for all of the venues listing CTE yet — the CTE withdrawal fee page has whatever each exchange publishes.
Is it safe to leave CTE on the exchange?
It is a custody choice, not a safety switch. While the coin sits there the exchange holds the keys: convenient, recoverable if you lose your password, and dependent on the exchange staying solvent and keeping withdrawals open. Moving it to a wallet you control removes that dependency and costs one withdrawal fee. For a trading balance, staying put is reasonable; for a long hold, most people move.
A note on this page: CTE is a ticker the exchanges below list and settle, but it has no CoinMarketCap listing, so there is no price, market cap or rank to show and no coin page for it elsewhere on this site. Tickers are not unique across exchanges either — confirm on the exchange itself that its CTE is the asset you mean, and check the contract address before you send anything.
Exchange coverage for CTE comes from each exchange’s own deposit and withdrawal endpoints (last sync 2026-08-29 00:53 UTC); trading fees are the published base tier, no volume discount applied. Exchanges we have a referral arrangement with appear first and are tagged as such — it changes no number in any row. Nothing here is investment advice; see our methodology.
