Step One: Install MetaMask in your browser.
Visit the MetaMask website https://metamask.io/ and follow instructions on how to install MetaMask in your browser.

Step Two: Acquire Ether

The purchase of CAT tokens requires Ether.
If you already have Ether, just transfer some to your MetaMask address.

If you require Ether, you can purchase some on well known cryptocurrency exchanges. Some examples include Coinbase, Poloniex or Kraken.

IMPORTANT: Do not attempt to purchase CAT using a wallet address on a cryptocurrency exchange. To purchase CAT you must use a wallet that allows you to interact with ERC20 token contracts. We have provided guides for MyEtherWallet, Parity and MetaMask. Though many other services also support this.

Step Three: Check the Token sale has begun.

The Token sale will begin at block 4027470. If the current block number is equal to or higher, then the contract has begun. You can check the current block numbers here: https://etherscan.io/blocks

Do not send Ether before the sale has begun.

Step Four: Sending Ether to the contract

Once on the official BlockCAT tokensale page (http://blockcat.io/tokensale), our site will detect you have Web3 support.

Enter how much Ether you wish to send to the contract then click “Receive CAT”. MetaMask will open and give details of the transaction.

Click “Submit” to confirm the transaction.

Congratulations, you have now purchased CAT!

Once the sale reaches the minimum cap, CAT will immediately be available to use. If the minimum cap is not reached, you will be refunded.

If you have any further questions about how to purchase CAT, please tweet @blockcatio or email any of the team. The email addresses can be found on our website, and we’d be happy to help!
