Is there a trick to opening attachments in this forum? I open this and all I get is a blank screen. It happened with another link I tried to open as well.peptideusername said:

Thanks for the guide. I made to up to page 26 before I hit an issue. I can't see the same options you do and my balance shows as zero on the Juniper page. I see a green connect that I don't see on your photo. Did I miss a step? Thanks for your patience, it's like a foreign language to me.
I finally figured it out! I was just tapping on it instead of doing a long press and choosing a few other options before I could open it. Thanksindolent said:
Thanks for this tutorial. All is going well for me until page 26. There is no big "Swap" button. Instead, there is a big "Connect" button. After entering the amount I want to swap, when clicking on Connect I get a page that seems to want me to download Jupiter Mobile app. What do I do now? Thanks!
Just had a crazy experience with PYUSD(been using it a ton more than BC), I went to pay a vendor and Exodus kept saying vendor's wallet address wasn't valid. I asked vendor if their PYUSD was possibly on a different network, just a guess as I had no idea if it could be.
They said it said it was on Ether, did some quick research and saw that it might be on Solana, figured out how to swap it over. I didn't want to buy any more bitcoin so that motivated me. Finally success after an hour of my time wasted. Did I say I hate dealing with crypto?

PayPal has frozen my account permanently. YIKES!
What were you doing with your PP account that set them off?Good-Heart6425 said:
Well, you COULD say I wasn’t sending funds to my family or friends overseas! Are you a FDA AI bot? Frozen means “inability to conduct any business with PayPal.” Please don’t probe my paranoia; my goose is cooked.RetCurious said:
Sorry, just my own guilty conscience looking for cover. 
What worked for me is to Coinbase to buy USDT on Ethereum network, transfer it to my Exodus wallet and from there make the payment.
I always keep five to $10 worth of Ethereum on my exodus wallet to cover the miscellaneous transaction fee

I have made a couple of purchases using these instructions with Exodus wallet successfully. Using Paypal to buy crypto and send it to vendors but today Paypal locked me out when Exodus tried to make the purchase, had me call and then couldn't resolve a "security issue" with my account. Told me to wait 48 hours and try again. That doesn't work for me.
Can someone please walk me through how to use Coinbase? Can I just add money to Coinbase and transfer it to Exodus to pay using USDT Solana. So confused.
Thanks!

Guide: How to Buy and Pay with USDC (Solana Network)
What is this about?
• This guide shows you how to easily buy the stablecoin USDC, store it in your own
wallet, and use it for payments.
• ���� Made for beginners who want a fast, low-cost payment method without price
fluctuations.
Your Setup
• �� Coin: USDC
• � Network: Solana (SOL)
• ����� Exchange: Coinbase
• ������ Wallet: Exodus
Why this combination?
• �������� USDC = stablecoin
o BTC & ETH fluctuate → inconvenient for payments.
o USDC = stable, easy to buy with euros or dollars, and stays at $1.00.
• ��������� Solana as the network
o Lightning Fast: Transactions confirm in seconds.
o Ultra Cheap: Fees are typically less than $0.01 (compared to dollars on
Ethereum).
o Coins are network-bound: Make sure you use USDC-Solana.
• ����� Coinbase as exchange
o �� High liquidity and easy on-ramps for fiat currency.
o ��� Very simple interface for first-time buyers.
Key Terms
• �������� Stablecoin: A coin pegged to the USD.
• � USDC: A regulated stablecoin, backed 1:1 by dollar reserves.
• ��� Exchange: The marketplace (Coinbase) where you buy crypto with euros or US
dollars.
• ��� Wallet: Your own digital safe (Exodus) that you control completely.
• ��������� Solana: The high-speed blockchain that USDC is moving on.
• ���� Transaction Fee: The tiny fee paid to the network, paid in SOL.
Step-by-Step Guide
������ Step 1: Set up your Exodus Wallet
1. Download Exodus (iOS/Android).
2. Open the app → your wallet is created automatically.
3. ������ Write down your 12-word recovery phrase and store it safely offline.
��� Without the recovery phrase, your money is gone. Never share it with anyone.
Step 2: Deposit money to Coinbase
1. Create a Coinbase account and verify your ID.
2. Deposit euros (via iDEAL/SEPA) or US dollars (via Debit/ACH/Wire). Funds usually
arrive in minutes or a few business days depending on the method. (EDIT: Coinbase
has been HORRIBLE about holds lately, so once you deposit your cash you may
need to wait a few days before proceeding past the next step.)
Step 3: Buy USDC
1. Tap Buy crypto and choose USDC.
2. Enter the amount of euros or dollars you want to spend -> Review Order.
3. Tap Buy now. Your USDC will appear under My assets.
Step 4: Send USDC to Exodus
1. Open Exodus → Tap USDC → Tap Receive.
2. Crucial: Ensure the network selected is Solana. Copy your address (it will be a long
string of random letters and numbers).
3. In Coinbase → Tap Send crypto:
o Paste your Exodus address.
o Select USDC as the asset.
o Select Solana as the network (Always double-check this!).
o Check the gas fee.
o Tap Send now.
4. Your USDC will arrive in Exodus almost instantly.
Step 5: Buy SOL (for transaction fees)
• To send USDC out of your Exodus wallet later, you need a tiny bit of SOL to pay the
network fee.
• Buy a small amount of SOL (even $2–$5 is enough for hundreds of transactions) on
Coinbase and send it to your Exodus Solana address.
�� Done! Bob’s your Uncle!
You now have USDC + a little SOL in your own self-custody wallet—ready for safe, instant,
and independent payments.

Did you transfer directly to vendor from PP without using a wallet like Exodus that is non-custodial? The STG crypto guide warns against doing this.Good-Heart6425 said:
