Immutable X uses zero-knowledge rollup technology, which is a standard Layer 2 protocol on the Ethereum network.  Batches hundreds of separate transactions together, using a method known as ZK-STARK which validates transactions without ever revealing what that information is. Immutable X can validate over 9,000 transactions per second - improving security, keeping gas fees low, and using 0 carbon emissions.

A cryptocurrency exchange is the most straightforward way to purchase Immutable X. A cryptocurrency exchange is a website where you can buy, sell, and trade Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies. The general steps to purchasing Immutable X on an exchange are as follows: 1. Create a profile on a trustworthy cryptocurrency exchange, like Cointree. 2. By offering the required documentation and personal information, you can verify your identity. 3. To fund your account, add a payment option like a bank account or credit card. 4. Look up Immutable X (IMX) and place an order to purchase it at the going rate on the market or at a price you specify. 5. The IMX will be deposited into your exchange wallet as soon as the order is filled. It's important to remember that before purchasing Immutable X, you should think about the risks involved in investing in cryptocurrencies and conduct your own research on the coins you are looking to purchase. Additionally, it's a good idea to store your IMX in a hardware wallet to keep it safe and secure.

The price of IMX varies, depending on the current market. To access information about the currency’s value, simply sign in to your Cointree account, and type Immutable X (IMX) into the search bar. On our crypto exchange, we always calculate Immutable X's price in Australian dollars (AUD) so you can work out exactly how much AUD you want to invest. You can use PayID to get your funds processed instantly and sent to your Cointree account, although that's not your only payment method available. You can also deposit cash or use a wire transfer to get your funds on our crypto exchange.

We prioritise security to make sure your Immutable X (IMX) is safe and secure. When you trade with Cointree, you are given a free wallet to store your Immutable X. We recommend that you strengthen the security of your wallet by enabling Two Factor Authentication (2FA). This gives you a time-sensitive code every time you log in. You can also store Immutable X in an external wallet. All you need to do is send your Immutable X from your Cointree wallet to a hardware wallet such as a Ledger or Trezor.
