Where can I buy or trade the THEO token?
Listing decisions are made by Autheo's commercial entity in coordination with compliance partners and are subject to each exchange's confidentiality and regulatory requirements.
THEO is live and trading today on Hydrex, a decentralized exchange built on Base network, under contract address 0xebE516a20238F79DC20b07eaD6768e08891Ed309. Buyers can also purchase a validator node separately at commerce.autheo.com, which qualifies for emissions over a 7-year window.
Understand the broader Autheo platform
This answer covers one part of the Autheo ecosystem. To understand how this capability fits into the full platform, start with the core Autheo overview and architecture pages.
Buying and Trading THEO Today
THEO trades on Hydrex, a decentralized exchange built on Base network. Connect an EVM-compatible wallet with ETH on Base for gas, then use the swap interface at hydrex.fi/swap, verifying the contract address matches 0xebE516a20238F79DC20b07eaD6768e08891Ed309. Trading is fully permissionless, with no account registration required. See the Hydrex buying and selling guide for full step-by-step instructions.
Validator Node Sale: A Separate Path
Buying a validator node is a separate path from acquiring THEO on the open market. Node buyers complete KYC/KYB, select a tier (Core, Prime, or Sovereign) at commerce.autheo.com, and receive an NFT representing on-chain ownership of the validator slot, with emissions accruing over the published 7-year linear schedule.
Compliance Considerations
Some jurisdictions restrict access to token trading or treat tokens differently for tax and securities purposes. Autheo's commercial entity coordinates with compliance partners to enforce geo-restrictions where required. THEO is a utility token used for staking, compute, storage, AI inference, fees, and identity, and is not marketed as an investment instrument.
