Been getting a lot of DMs so here it is:
If you can buy LUNA on an exchange (Binance for example) where you have an account, that's easiest. Otherwise...
FYI I convert all my MIR airdrops right into LUNA, as well as all my staking rewards... every few weeks. ANC and MINE (I LOVE MINE) I have been keeping. Starting to think I should be holding the MIR as well. The set up looks good.
Edit: bought MIR tonight.

- Luna - $LUNA helps power $UST, which is the stablecoin of the Terra ecosystem; LUNA is the coin that collateralizes and facilitates stability -- as demand for UST increases (which is driven for demand of DeFi services within the ecosystem - e.g.: Mirror, which is growing incredibly fast and is basically a synthetic assets protocol, and Anchor which is a high-yield savings protocol.
- Helpful overview video:
- White paper: https://terra.money/Terra_White_paper.pdf
- How to buy:
- Coinbase or KuCoin app (Coinbase is more legitimate, but requires purchase of $MIR, and a follow-up step)
- Create a Terra wallet (https://station.terra.money/) and use your iPhone for this. Make sure you save your seed phrase and password.
- Stake LUNA via Terra Station and earn airdrops; to do so...
- Link your Terra wallet to the Mirror, Pylon and Anchor dashboards: terra.mirror.finance/gov & docs.anchorprotocol.com (Orion, Nebula & more coming soon...)
- Create MetaMask wallet on Google Chrome (download extension when prompted). Send $MIR to MetaMask -> then from MetaMask to Terra wallet. Convert $MIR to $LUNA to stake using the Orion.money validator
