  • You can obtain CFX and withdraw it to Conflux eSpace through a variety of centralized exchanges (e.g., KuCoin).
  • You can also use a decentralized exchange like Swappi.
  • Finally, you can also transfer crypto assets from other chains to Conflux eSpace through cross-chain apps like Multichain, meson.fi, cBridge, or the Conflux eSpace Bridge.

Checking Your Balance​

The easiest way to check your CFX and ERC20 token balances held by your Ledger account is to simply view them in MetaMask.
