What is JOE?
JOE is the native governance and utility token of Trader Joe, a decentralised trading platform launched in 2021 on the Avalanche blockchain. Trader Joe grew into one of the busiest decentralised exchanges on Avalanche, pairing an automated market maker with lending and other trading features inside a single application.
Holding JOE lets people take part in Trader Joe governance, stake the token for platform rewards, and reach features tied to its lending and leveraged trading markets. Because it runs on Avalanche, transactions settle quickly and at low cost.
In short, JOE ties together voting, staking, and access across the Trader Joe ecosystem, and its role tends to widen as the platform adds products and Avalanche activity grows.

FAQ
Buying JOE: FAQs
What is the smallest amount of JOE I can buy?
You can start with a very small amount of JOE, since orders are measured in AUD rather than whole tokens. Many Australians buy a few dollars worth to begin, then add to their holding later once they are comfortable with how the platform works.
How quickly can I buy JOE after signing up?
Most people are buying JOE within minutes of joining. Identity checks are usually approved quickly, and a PayID deposit of AUD typically clears in under a minute, so you can move from opening your account to placing a JOE order in one short sitting.
How do I sell JOE and withdraw AUD?
Selling is the reverse of buying. Open your JOE holding, choose how much to sell at the live AUD price, and confirm. The AUD lands in your Digital Surge cash balance, and from there you can withdraw it to your Australian bank account whenever you like.
What can you do with the JOE token?
JOE is used for governance voting on Trader Joe, for staking to earn platform rewards, and for reaching features across its decentralised exchange and lending markets. Holders can also take part in liquidity pools, with JOE acting as the access token for the wider Trader Joe ecosystem.
Which network does JOE run on?
JOE is an Avalanche C-Chain token, so it works with wallets that support Avalanche, including options like MetaMask and Core. On Digital Surge you do not need to manage any of that yourself, because your JOE is held for you in your account wallet once you buy.
How do I check the live JOE price in AUD?
The live JOE price in AUD sits at the top of this page and updates through the day. You can also open the AUD converter to see what a specific amount of JOE is worth, or a set amount of AUD buys, at the current rate.
