How to Swap

To use our AMM to swap tokens, you must already have one of the existing liquidity pool assets in your wallet. Then you can use our interface to swap your assets.

  1. First, you will need ETH to pay the transaction fees. You can instantly get 1 KETH per 24h per GitHub account by visiting https://faucet.kovan.network/ and submitting your Kovan address.
  2. To start testing CONV, contact admin in the telegram group and admin will disperse CONV within 24hours

For our walkthrough we will explain how to buy CONV with ETH, and how to swap ETH to CONV.
