What's SHARES?
SHARES is a digital token that acts like a special key to access certain online services or communities. Imagine it as a ticket that lets you join a club or use a service. It exists to make transactions easier and faster, solving the problem of slow and costly traditional methods. SHARES helps people connect and trade in a digital world, making things simpler and more efficient.
How can I buy SHARES?

Why do people buy SHARES?
People buy SHARES for its utility in accessing specific digital services and communities. It can be used to participate in decentralized applications or to pay for services within its ecosystem. SHARES is also valued for its role in facilitating faster and more efficient transactions. However, it's important to understand that its value can fluctuate, and it may not be accepted everywhere.
Things to know before buying SHARES in the United States
In the United States, cryptocurrencies like SHARES are legal but regulated. Users must complete KYC and AML verification to comply with laws. Cryptocurrencies are subject to taxes, such as capital gains tax when sold for a profit. Income from activities like staking may also be taxable. It's crucial to keep records of all transactions for tax purposes and consult a tax professional if needed.
What are other ways to own SHARES?
Besides buying, SHARES can be obtained through airdrops, where tokens are distributed for free to eligible users. Participating in Learn-and-Earn programs can also reward you with SHARES for completing educational tasks. Some platforms offer SHARES as rewards for staking or providing liquidity. These methods require effort and understanding of the risks involved, such as market volatility and platform reliability.
How can I store my SHARES?
To keep SHARES safe, you can use custodial wallets, where a third party holds your tokens, or non-custodial wallets, where you control your keys. Hot wallets are online and convenient but less secure, while cold wallets are offline and more secure. Always back up your wallet, keep recovery phrases safe, and use strong passwords. Understanding these options helps protect your SHARES from loss or theft.
