BretCoin is now live for purchase on UniSwap.org.
It’s super easy to get started. If you’ve never been into crypto, it’s actually pretty simple.
Here’s how to get your BretCoin.
1) Create an account on Metamask.
This is your crypto wallet. This is where you will store your cryptocurrency, including/especially BretCoin.
(NOTE: make sure you are using Google Chrome or Firefox).
2) Add BretCoin (BRET) as a custom token.
On Metamask, at the bottom select “Add token.” Then go to the “Custom Token.”
Paste this exact code into the “Token Contract Address”: 0x44e337bbca036db02e3a45fadd61e702560db7b9
3) Deposit Ethereum (ETH) into your Metamask wallet.
Because we are (for now) a smaller token, we can only accept Ethereum (ETH) in exchange for BretCoin.
So you must either purchase the ETH directly on your Metamask. So hit buy and select ETH.
However much BretCoin (BRET) you’ll want is how much ETH you should get. So if you want $50 purchase $50. If you want $1000 purchase $1000, etc.
4) Go to this link on UniSwap.
Paste this link into your browser window: https://app.uniswap.org/#/swap?inputCurrency=0x44e337bbca036db02e3a45fadd61e702560db7b9
This is UniSwap, which is the exchange where BretCoin are currently sold. As we build out the token’s notoriety we will be on exchanges but for now, this is the one.
5) Click the middle arrow on that screen, so that BretCoin (BRET) is at the bottom of that square.
6) For select a token, choose ETH and input the amount of ETH you purchased.
NOTE: You’re going to want to do around $5 - $15 less than you originally purchased. This is amount accounts for the ‘gas fees’ (which are the charges required for the system). We have nothing to do with these fees FYI. It’s the network’s fee. If it feels like a lot, realize that I intend on making BretCoin multiply exponentially in value as I get more and more famous and stuff.
7) Hit confirm a couple times.
Usually it takes 5ish minutes for the BRET to transfer. So don’t fret if it isn’t immediate.
Also if you’re getting an error you need to lower the amount of ETH a smidge so that some of your ETH goes to the ‘gas fee.’
8) YOU’RE DONE.
Congratulations. You’re now the proud owner of BretCoin, the first cryptocurrency in a person’s name and a good, great, grand investment.
If you’re having hang ups, message me on Instagram.
