How to Buy Bitcoin on Bifu – Step-by-Step Guide

Bitcoin (BTC) is the most liquid digital asset in the world, and buying it has never been more straightforward. This guide walks you through every step of purchasing Bitcoin on Bifu — from creating your account to placing your first order — so you can move from zero to your first confirmed trade with confidence.

What Is Bitcoin?

Bitcoin is a decentralized digital currency that runs on a public blockchain — a distributed ledger that records every transaction without requiring a central bank or intermediary. Created in 2009, it has grown into a globally traded asset held by individuals, funds, and institutions. On Bifu, Bitcoin trades primarily against USDT (Tether), a US dollar-pegged stablecoin, under the ticker pair BTC/USDT.

How to Buy Bitcoin on Bifu — Step by Step

Step 1: Create Your Bifu Account

Go to bifu.co and click Open Account. Enter your email address and create a strong password. You will receive a verification email — click the confirmation link to activate your account.

Step 2: Complete Identity Verification (KYC)

Bifu requires identity verification before you can deposit funds or trade. This is standard across regulated platforms and typically takes under five minutes.

What you will need:

• A government-issued photo ID (passport, national ID card, or driving licence)
• A short selfie or biometric scan for liveness verification

Once submitted, verification is usually approved within a few minutes during business hours. You will receive a notification when your account is verified and ready to fund.

Step 3: Enable Two-Factor Authentication (2FA)

Before depositing any capital, secure your account with two-factor authentication. Go to Account Settings → Security → Two-Factor Authentication and link an authenticator app such as Google Authenticator or Authy.

Each time you log in or withdraw funds, you will be prompted for a one-time code from the app. This single step significantly reduces the risk of unauthorized access even if your password is compromised.

Step 4: Deposit Funds

You can fund your Bifu account using fiat currency or crypto:

Fiat deposit: Navigate to Wallet → Deposit → Fiat. Select your currency and follow the bank transfer or payment instructions. Supported methods and processing times vary by region — check the deposit page for current options in your location.

Crypto/stablecoin deposit: If you already hold USDT or another supported asset on another platform, navigate to Wallet → Deposit → Crypto, select the asset (e.g. USDT), and copy your unique deposit address. Send from the external wallet to that address. Confirmations typically take a few minutes depending on network congestion.

Step 5: Navigate to the BTC/USDT Trading Pair

Once your deposit is confirmed, go to the Markets section and search for BTC/USDT. Click the pair to open the trading terminal. You will see:

• The live BTC price in USDT
• An order book showing current buy and sell orders
• A price chart with configurable timeframes
• Your available balance in the order entry panel

Step 6: Place Your Order

Bifu supports two primary order types for buying Bitcoin:

Market order — executes immediately at the current best available price. Use this when you want to enter without delay and the exact fill price is less important than speed.

Limit order — lets you specify the price at which you are willing to buy. For example, if BTC is trading at $76,000 and you want to wait for a dip to $74,500, enter $74,500 as your limit price. The order will sit in the book and fill automatically if the market reaches that level.

To place an order:

1. Select Buy in the order panel
2. Choose Market or Limit
3. Enter the amount of BTC you want to purchase, or the USDT amount you want to spend
4. Review the order summary (estimated fill price, fees)
5. Click Confirm Order

Step 7: Confirm the Trade and Check Your Wallet

After your order fills, you will receive an in-platform notification. Your BTC balance will appear in Wallet → Spot. You can monitor the position from the wallet view or track its value against your entry price on the asset detail page.

Tips and Things to Know

Minimum order sizes: Bifu enforces a minimum trade size per pair. Check the pair detail page for the current minimum BTC/USDT order amount before placing a very small test trade.

Trading fees: Bifu charges a maker/taker fee structure. Maker orders (limit orders that rest in the book) typically carry a lower fee than taker orders (market orders that execute immediately). Review the fee schedule in your account settings.

Withdrawal security: When withdrawing BTC to an external wallet, always use the whitelist feature under Security → Withdrawal Addresses. Whitelisting a destination address means withdrawals can only go to addresses you have pre-approved, adding an extra layer of protection against account compromise.

Self-custody for long-term holding: If you intend to hold Bitcoin for an extended period rather than actively trade it, consider moving a portion to a hardware wallet (a physical device that stores your private keys offline). Keep the remainder on Bifu for trading liquidity.

Dollar-cost averaging (DCA): Rather than trying to time a single entry point, many traders buy a fixed USDT amount of BTC on a regular schedule — weekly or monthly. This approach smooths out entry costs over time and removes the pressure of picking a precise low.

Phishing awareness: Always verify you are on the official bifu.co domain before logging in. Bifu support staff will never ask for your password, seed phrase, or 2FA codes. If you receive a message claiming to be from Bifu support asking for these details, treat it as a phishing attempt.

FAQ
