AEON is a mobile-friendly, lightweight cryptocurrency that can be purchased from several exchanges including Bittrex, TradeOgre and HitBTC. Some of the other exchanges have little to no trading volume or liquidity. AEON has been around since June 6th, 2014. It was forked from Monero by an anonymous person or group. It is known for being secure, private and untraceable. AEON is both the name of the ecosystem and the name of the units of the cryptocurrency. The AEON ecosystem contains all the necessary software to manage a wallet and mine new AEON coins. It is simple to synchronize with the blockchain and start to send and receive AEON coins. “AEON coins” will be called just AEON from here on out.

The current price of AEON is $0.43 with a market cap of over $6.8 million. It’s all-time high price was $9.45 on Jan 09, 2018. For full statistics on AEON, visit CoinMarketCap or CoinGecko. The links can be found in the footer.

It is simple to purchase AEON from an exchange. Most exchanges only trade AEON for BTC, so you will need to purchase Bitcoin before converting it into AEON. Bittrex is a widely used and trusted exchange that trades AEON. The spread is 69 satoshis or 0.00000069 BTC.
