Where to buy BEAM
Exchanges whose own market lists currently show a live BEAM market:
Perpetual futures are leveraged derivatives β they don't give you ownership of BEAM. To hold the coin itself, buy it on a spot market.
Before you choose an exchange
Beam is a privacy coin. Several major exchanges have delisted or restricted BEAM in recent years, and some jurisdictions (for example Japan, South Korea and parts of the EU) bar exchanges from listing privacy coins at all. Check that your exchange still offers BEAM in your country before depositing, and expect stricter withdrawal rules on some platforms.
Networks and contract addresses
BEAM is issued as a token on the networks below. Deposit and withdraw only on a network that both your exchange and your wallet support.
| Network | Contract address |
|---|---|
| Ethereum | 0x62d0a8458ed7719fdaf978fe5929c6d342b0bfce |
| BNB Smart Chain | 0x62d0a8458ed7719fdaf978fe5929c6d342b0bfce |

Always verify a contract address on the project's official website or a block explorer before sending funds β scam tokens copy the names and tickers of popular coins.
