How to Buy a Static IP for Crypto Exchanges
If you’re just getting started with trading, it’s smart to build a clean, consistent setup from day one. A properly configured static IP acts like a “security insurance policy” for your exchange account. This guide covers what to buy and how to use it correctly.
1) Choose the country first
Before you buy anything, choose your country once—and choose it right. General trading-friendly picks are often European locations such as Germany, the Netherlands, and France. They’re typically considered lower-risk and usually draw less attention from exchange security systems.
2) Choose a sensible plan length
Stability matters. A short plan often forces you to change IP/country more frequently. Choosing a 3-month or 6-month plan helps you keep a consistent login pattern and reduces unnecessary risk.
3) Don’t rush right after connecting
After your VPN connects, wait 5–10 seconds so routing fully stabilizes, then log in to the exchange. This small habit can reduce suspicious “network change” signals.
4) What if your internet drops?
With Kill Switch enabled, your device blocks internet traffic if the VPN disconnects—so your real IP won’t leak. After reconnecting, you’ll return to the same static IP and the exchange is far less likely to detect a sudden location change.
5) Change countries only with a plan
Sometimes you may need to switch to a new country. Don’t do it suddenly. A safer approach is to use the new location for normal browsing for a few days, then access the exchange. If you’re unsure, support can guide you through a safer transition.
Summary
A static IP, used correctly, can reduce most common exchange risks related to location/IP behavior. VPNMakers provides a trading-focused static IP service built specifically for this use case.
