ACE is a crypto backed stablecoin that function similar to DAI. Currently it is possible to buy ACE at a discount from its intended peg of $1 as part of the ACE Presale. This guide is meant to help any user that has basic familiarity with using a cryptocurrency wallet get ACE in their hands as fast as possible. There are many options to directly buy major cryptocurrencies with fiat (including credit cards. First buy yourself some cryptocurrency and hold them in a CEX or your own wallet.
Install HIVE Keychain

Send HIVE to Your Wallet
Your username is your wallet address. Investors can use a swap service such as SimpleSwap or buy and send HIVE directly from a CEX if that is available.
Send HIVE to Wallet
You will receive your ACE sometime later. There is a way to make this process instant. Investors can buy ACE directly from the open market. This done through the Layer 2 of HIVE you can login via 
Deposit Tokens and Swap
There are many available Tokens for deposit. As long as you have one of them, you can start trading on HIVE-Engine and Tribaldex. Use LeoDEX for cross chain swaps across 30+ blockchains supporting 20,000+ Tokens. Occasionally you may find yourself at a profit after fees due to arbitrage opportunities among DEXs across blockchains.
SWAP or Trade ACE
Swap function on HIVE-Engine and Keychain wallet both allow swapping from any asset in the wallet to another asset you want. This is convenient; but it may not offer the best price execution. I recommend beginners to try the Swap feature with a small purchase when starting out.
Congratulations on Buying Dollars for Cents!
You can pat yourself in the back and take a rest. You are done here. There are ACE Quests and many other community actives for those who are interested. Ignore short term volatility and hang around for the long term. Best of Luck!
