UCT tokens are on the Polygon / Matic Mainnet (not Ethereum Mainnet). In order to prepare to transact with them, there are some steps you need to follow.
The videos and instructions (see below) will guide you through these processes.
Step 1: Install your Metamask Wallet
Video tutorial walking you through:
- How to install Metamask wallet,
- How to enable UCT Token and other custom tokens in Metamask,
- How to find your receive wallet address, so that someone can send you cryptocurrency tokens,
- How to ensure your Metamask wallet is secure.
Some things to note:
When you first install your Metamask wallet, it will default to the Ethereum Mainnet. In the next few videos, we will show you how to change it over to the Polygon/Matic Mainnet, which we’ll be using for transactions with the two UCT tokens, UCT and UCTC.
Step 2: Configure your existing Metamask Wallet to Polygon / Matic Mainnet
Video tutorial walking you through:
- How to configure your existing Metamask wallet to the Polygon / Matic Mainnet network,
- How to enable UCT Token and UCT Cash as custom tokens in your Matic Mainnet configured Metamask wallet,
- How to find your receive wallet address on the Matic Mainnet, so that someone can send you UCT Token or UCT Cash.
Some things to note:
As we will be using UCT Token and UCT Cash on the Polygon / Matic Mainnet network, you must do this step in order to be able to receive or transact with any of the UCT tokens.
*** You can download PDF instructions below the video (these have been updated with one change to the settings in Metamask of the New RPC URL for Matic Mainnet, which should now be https://polygon-rpc.com/).
The updated settings you will need in order to configure Matic Mainnet in Metamask are as follows:
- Network Name: Matic Mainnet
- New RPC URL: https://polygon-rpc.com/ (Note: this replaces what was previously advised. Advanced users can view info/alternatives at: https://docs.polygon.technology/docs/develop/network-details/network/)
- Chain ID: 137
- Currency Symbol: MATIC
- Block Explorer URL: https://explorer.matic.network/
Step 3: Transfer any existing balances of UCT Token and/or UCT Cash from Ethereum Mainnet to Polygon / Matic Mainnet
Video tutorial walking you through:
- How to transfer any UCT Token and/or UCT Cash balances you may have on the Ethereum Mainnet network in your Metamask wallet, to the Polygon / Matic Mainnet network, using Polygon Bridge,
- How to find your balances of any transferred UCT and/or UCTC in your Matic Mainnet configured Metamask wallet.
Some things to note:
If you do NOT already have any UCT Token and/or UCT Cash balances (on Ethereum Mainnet in your Metamask wallet), you will skip this step.
