HTX, formerly known as Huobi, has been operating since 2013 and is especially popular in Asia. The exchange offers a solid SOL/USDT spot market and a suite of earn products including staking. HTX's long track record and large user base make it a dependable option for buying Solana. Solana's exceptional transaction speed and sub-cent network fees mean you can withdraw and put your SOL to work in DeFi without any significant friction or cost.

Step-by-step guide

1. Create account. Go to htx.com and register with your email or phone number. Confirm your email and set a strong password.
2. KYC verification. Go to Account > Verification to complete identity checks. Upload a valid government ID and a selfie. Approval typically takes several minutes.
3. Deposit funds. Navigate to Assets > Deposit. Transfer crypto from an external wallet, buy with a card, or use the P2P market available in select regions.
4. Buy SOL. Open the Spot section and find SOL/USDT. Choose a market order for immediate purchase or a limit order to enter at your target price.
5. Earn on your SOL. HTX offers staking and savings products for SOL. You can activate these directly from your asset balance after purchase.

Fees

HTX charges 0.2% for both makers and takers on spot markets, which is higher than most competitors. Holding the HT token reduces fees. SOL withdrawal fee is 0.01 SOL. Solana network fees are well below $0.001, so the cost of moving SOL after withdrawal is negligible.

Tips

HTX has a long history and a large Asian user base. If you trade during Asian market hours, SOL liquidity on HTX tends to be particularly good.
HTX Earn offers SOL staking with competitive APY rates. If you are a medium to long-term holder, staking on HTX is a simple way to generate passive income.
Solana processes thousands of transactions per second, which is why withdrawal confirmations on HTX typically appear within a few seconds of initiating the transfer.
