How to Buy Electric Cash (ELCASH)Every exchange we track that lists ELCASH, what the buy costs, and what it costs to take ELCASH with you afterwards.
ELCASH is thin on the ground: exactly one exchange we track lists it, LBank. 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 LBank at $1.00 on a $1,000 market buy. It is also the cheapest once the withdrawal fee is added — $1.05 to buy $1,000 of ELCASH and move it to your own wallet. Every exchange sends ELCASH over elcash, so there is no network to get wrong.
All-in cost is the trading fee on a $1,000 market buy plus the cheapest fee that exchange charges to withdraw ELCASH. It is the number the exchange’s own “how to buy” page never shows you, and it reorders the table more often than not. The coins column is how many assets each exchange lists in total, from our own sync — not the figure CoinMarketCap prints.

Showing 1–1 of 1 exchange listing ELCASH
On 1 exchange we track: LBank. The table above has its trading fee, the payment methods it takes and what it charges to withdraw ELCASH.
LBank, at $1.05 to buy $1,000 of ELCASH and withdraw it — $1.00 in trading fee plus $0.04678 to move it out over elcash. If you are leaving the coin on the exchange, only the first half applies and a different venue may win. Paying by card adds the card processor's charge on top of both, typically 1.8–4%.
None of the exchanges listing ELCASH 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 ELCASH on one of the venues above. Budget for the card charge, the USDT withdrawal fee and the trade.
Yes, and it is worth checking before you choose where to buy. It is a flat amount of ELCASH, set by each exchange per network, so it does not scale with the size of your purchase — the cheapest in the table is $0.04678 on LBank. Our full ELCASH withdrawal fee table compares every exchange and every network.
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 — from $0.04678 for ELCASH. For a trading balance, staying put is reasonable; for a long hold, most people move.
