That’s why we at Cryptonary are here to make sure that you learn the basics of buying Near Protocol on a major platform like Binance. Once you get the basics down, be it Chainlink or Polkadot, you can buy any coin available on that platform. With that said, let’s start by going over the entire procedure.

Here’s what you’re going learn through this guide:

  • Buy Near Protocol Through Binance
  • Buy Near Protocol Through Trust Wallet
With that said, let’s start by going over the entire procedure.

Step-By-Step Guide for Buying Near Protocol

The very step in buying any crypto token is knowing which exchange you will use.

Step 1: Select an Exchange

The main issue beginners face when buying NEAR is finding the right exchange. Finding a reliable and trustworthy platform is the key. To buy Near Protocol, you must register on a cryptocurrency exchange that supports NEAR trading. Here are some popular exchanges:
  • Binance
  • Coinbase
  • Kraken
  • Gemini
  • Robinhood 
Ensure the exchange supports NEAR in your region and review its fees and features. For this guide on how to buy Near Protocol, we'll be using Binance. 
  • Go to the app store and download the Binance app on your phone.

Step 2: Login to Your Account

Once the app is installed, the next step is to log in to your account. 
  • We'll be using our Gmail account to log in quickly.

Note: To do any exchange or trading, you must have a verified account. To learn how to create and verify your Binance account, check out our guide on how to use Binance.

Step 3: Adding Funds to Your Account

Now that your account is ready, you need to have funds to buy NEAR. There are usually several options to fund your account.

You can choose from the following options if you don't have any crypto assets.

  • Buy with GBP: You can add funds using a bank transfer or credit/debit card.
  • P2P Trading: You can buy directly from another user on the platform.
However, if you have crypto assets in your account, you can go with the:
  • Deposit Crypto: You can exchange other cryptocurrencies for GBP.
Before proceeding, make sure you are aware of deposit fees and transfer times. 

Once you've deposited GBP into your account, you'll have to convert it into BNB. It's a fairly simple process.

However, we’ll be adding BNB directly to your wallet using a credit/debit card. 

  • First, you need to open the Binance app and tap on the search bar.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I trust Cryptonary's calls?

Yes. We've consistently identified winners across multiple cycles. Bitcoin under $1,000, Ethereum under $70, Solana under $10, WIF from $0.003 to $5, PopCat from $0.004 to $2, SPX blasting past $1.70, and our latest pick has already 200X'd since June 2025. Everything is timestamped and public record.

Do I need to be an experienced trader or investor to benefit?

No. When we founded Cryptonary in 2017 the market was new to everyone. We intentionally created content that was easy to understand and actionable. That foundational principle is the crux of Cryptonary. Taking complex ideas and opportunities and presenting them in a way a 10 year old could understand.

What makes Cryptonary different from free crypto content on YouTube or Twitter?

Signal vs noise. We filter out 99.9% of garbage projects, provide data backed analysis, and have a proven track record of finding winners. Not to mention since Cryptonary's inception in 2017 we have never taken investment, sponsorship or partnership. Compare this to pretty much everyone else, no track record, and a long list of partnerships that cloud judgements.

Why is there no trial or refund policy?

We share highly sensitive, time-critical research. Once it's out, it can't be "returned." That's why membership is annual only. Crypto success takes time and commitment. If someone is not willing to invest 12 months into their future, there is no place for them at Cryptonary.

Do I get direct access to the Cryptonary team?

Yes. You will have 24/7 to the team that bought you BTC at $1,000, ETH at $70, and SOL at $10. Through our community chats, live Q&As, and member only channels, you can ask questions and interact directly with the team. Our team has over 50 years of combined experience which you can tap into every single day.

How often is content updated?

Daily. We provide real-time updates, weekly reports, emergency alerts, and live Q&As when the markets move fast. In crypto, the market moves fast, in Cryptonary, we move faster.

How does the 3X Value Guarantee work?

We stand behind the value of our research. If the documented upside from our published research during your 12-month membership does not exceed three times (3X) the annual subscription cost, you can request a full refund. Historical context: In every completed market cycle since 2017, cumulative documented upside has exceeded 10X this threshold.
