How to Buy KCY Tokens with MetaMask
Hi, friends! We’ve compiled a complete guide on how to participate here, but we thought we’d make it easier and faster for you to buy your KCY tokens using MetaMask.
MetaMask is more than just an Ether wallet, it is rather an Ethereum browser that allows you all the same functions, features and ease of access from regular Ethereum Wallets, and all without the need to download the blockchain or install any software. With MetaMask, you can just install it as a Google Chrome Extension, and you’re good to purchase those tokens you’ve been wanting to buy.
Prerequisites:
To follow this guide, you will need:
- A web browser.
- A certain amount of ether in the account that you control. Please notice, only ETH will be accepted for the KickCity Tokensale.
Getting Started
If you don’t have a ERC20-compatible address to send from, or ether (ETH) to contribute, start from Step 1. Otherwise, go to Step 5.
Step 1: Creating an account
First type “metamask chrome extension” in to Google, and click the link that begins with https://chrome.google.com. You will be taken to the install page, where you can click “Add to Chrome”.
Now you will see the Metamask fox in your browser tab.
Click it to open your wallet.
You will be prompted to create a secure password for your Metamask account. Make sure that the Ethereum Main Net network is selected (on the top left corner).
Step 3: Importing an Account
If you have a private key or JSON file for a wallet already, you can import that wallet in to Metamask. Simply click “≣” at the top right, choose “Import Account”.
You will need to input your raw private key into the “private” key field, or the typical JSON keystore file. Otherwise, you can select Create Account to generate a new one.
Step 4: Getting Ether
To be able to participate in the ICO, you will need to have some ether (ETH) in an account that you control. You can buy ETH from different cryptocurrency exchanges or using this Telegram bot.
Important Security Reminders
- DO NOT send ETH directly from an exchange, otherwise your tokens might never be recovered.
- There is no need to increase default gas price (or the value you are used to). Unless there is an unusual traffic in the Ethereum network, 30 GWEI should be enough to get the transaction confirmed in a few minutes.
Step 5: Buying KickCity Tokens
The Tokensale is open until March 31, or whenever the supply of tokens reaches zero.
Please ensure you are on our official and secure website. Our website address is: https://ico.kickcity.io and Tokensale address is https://tokensale.kickcity.io/.
One last step is to add the token to your MetaMask, so you can see your balance. Click “Add Token”, and paste in the following information:
Address: 0x9d22c3bf2b51213a3572e865ecf78fab0294e75b
Decimals: 18
Token Symbol: KCY
And that’s it!
When your transaction has been mined and entered into the blockchain, you will be able to see it under “Tokens” in your Metamask account.
Thank you for participating in the KickCity Tokensale. We appreciate your support.
