Add Funds
There are multiple ways you can add funds to put to work inside the Linx App. For every action though it is required to have a wallet connected that supports the Alephium network.
Wallets
Currently you can connect with Linx Walletor Alephium Wallets
If you are mostly a mobile user, we suggest using Linx Wallet and use the in-app explorer (in the 'Explore' section of the wallet). If you have funds already in your wallet, you can go straight to work, just connect.
Adding funds from Ethereum or Binance
If you have funds on the Ethereum or Binance network, you can easily bridge them over to the Alephium network. Once you click the chain you would like to deposit from, you can select any of the supported tokens like WBTC (Wrapped BTC on Ethereum) or USDT etc. Once a token is selected you can connect your wallet that holds the token you would like to bridge.
In some occasions you will need to pre-approve the transfer of tokens before actually start the bridging transaction, which would require you to sign two transactions. You will need to have funds to pay for gas for these transactions.
No gas is required on the Alephium network, this is provided by the bridge.
The bridging process is automatic and should complete within 20 minutes.
While a bridge is in progress, there will be a bar at the top of the app that informs you of the remaining time before completion.
If you click the bar, or again go to 'Add Funds' you will see the progress screen and a link to the transaction that started the bridging process.
Buy with Creditcard, Apple Pay etc.
You can also buy Alephium straight from the Linx App.
If you click 'Buy' a window will open from OnRamper which will find you the best price to buy Alephium tokens.
For some providers you might have to verify your identifaction to complete a purchase, Linx plays no part in the buying process and Linx does not add any fees to the purchase.
