Looks like you can do what I did to buy Saitama without paying them damn gas fees. These are the instructions I followed, you would buy EOS on coinbase and xfer it to Hotbit. Sell the EOS for USDT and then use the USDT to buy the ELON coin. Fee's were negligible. Cost $1.99 to buy the EOS on Coinbase.

If you’re buying EOS with cash on Coinbase, you will pay their standard fee. You will be able to see the amount before you confirm. But the good news is this is the vast majority of money I lost throughout the whole conversion to Saitama.

In the Hotbit app, go to the Fund tab, click on the Deposit button, and select EOS. You’ll need both the EOSDeposit address & EOSMEMO address to share with Coinbase.

In the Coinbase app, hit the center middle button with the two arrows going opposite directions. Click Send (Send crypto to another wallet). This is where you will choose how much to send, hit continue, and use the EOSDeposit address and then EOSMEMO address you got from Hotbit.

Once the EOS is transferred to your Hotbit wallet, click Trade at the center bottom of the app, click the very top left lines to expand a search, and search for EOS. The default trade will be EOS/USDT. You can choose to buy or sell, hit sell. The first box is the current price of EOS. The next box is how much you want to trade- hit the 100% button to make it easy. Click sell.

This is where it may be confusing for some people and was to me. In order to convert USDT to nUSD, you don’t transfer like you did in step 4. Instead, click Fund on the bottom of the app. Now where it shows your USDT balance, click on that. Click Convert on the right. The default here is USDT to nUSD, and now you’re almost there! Convert all of it to nUSD.

Now click back to the Trade section in the app. Hit the top left toggle and search for Saitama. Don’t see it at first and only see BTC and ETH on the left side if the app? Not a problem! The blank space scrolls. Just scroll down the blank space and there you will see Saitama! Click Saitama. The default for this one is Saitama/ nUSD. This time you’re buying. In the second box where you put the Saitama amount, it will only let you convert in 100,000,000 increments. Don’t worry, that’s about 10 cents worth.

Now you’ve got your Saitama and avoided those nasty gas fees!
