For many of the $DGVC LP who only use Uniswap, moving between chains might be a little daunting. This is what we hope will be a handy guide to navigate the challenge! First, a couple of points:

  1. You only need to be a $DGVC LP on Uniswap to receive BOTH #alphadrops. There is no $DGVC token on Pancakeswap.
  2. Your wallet address will not change — the $INFINITY #alphadrop on both ERC20 & BEP20 will go into the same wallet on Metmask, Trustwallet and others.

Metamask

There are a couple of manual steps that need to be taken in order to load Binance Smart Chain onto your wallet, as follows:

  1. Go to settings page

Add a new network using these steps:

Mainnet: use one of these URLs:

ChainID:

  • 0x38, 56 in decimal (if 56 doesn’t work, try 0x38)

Symbol: BNB

Block Explorer: https://bscscan.com

Trustwallet

Smart Chain wallet will be enabled by default as soon as you Create a new wallet. If you do not see it yet, try to do a search and look for “Smart Chain”.

Open your Smart Chain wallet, tap on Receive to get your BEP20 address. In case you are wondering why BNB shows on the screenshot, it is because Binance Coin 146 is also the main token used on Binance Smart Chain. Tap on Copy or Share your QR code for the Smart Chain address.
