I would recommend using Binance to purchase [EMC]
You can keep it stored on there or, for the time being, store it on MEW (or any other). Since it's an ERC-20 token.
They are currently working on the parent chain and wallet, once that's out you can obviously store it on the official wallet.
Greetings! The team is working with numerous exchanges on the question of listing.
We are getting legal opinion from a top law firm to qualify Emercoin as a non-security token. While this is simply stating the obvious, many exchanges asked for the legal confirmation so we are getting this.
Given this and the work of our team, expect more exchanges listing EMC in the nearest time!
We'd like to mention that the application for listing on Binance is in progress.
