How to Buy Ethereum Using Coins.ph
Popular wallet app Coins.ph now supports ethereum (ether) across its iPhone, Android, and web apps.
Coins.ph Ethereum Wallet
The Coins.ph ethereum wallet went on beta for selected Coins.ph Android users. After a couple of weeks testing this new feature, iOS, Android, and web users can now enjoy purchasing ether just like how we enjoy purchasing bitcoins via the Coins.ph app.
Users can use the ether wallet to buy, sell, and hold ether tokens.
Activating your Ethereum Wallet
Make sure you have a Coins.ph app available on your Android or iOS device and check if it’s updated. After getting your app, have an extra Php 20.00 in your PHP wallet. This Php 20.00 will serve as your fee to create your wallet in the Ethereum Network.
If you don’t have Php 20.00 in your PHP wallet, you can convert your BTC to PHP 20.00 and use it to create your ethereum wallet.
Coins.ph Ethereum Wallet Must Know
