Steps to swap $FTM for $POWER
You can follow the same steps to setup any tier of POWER node, but you will need to adjust for the right amount of $FTM and $POWER tokens to cover the cost of the node you want.
1. Create and setup a MetaMask wallet (available as a web browser extension and mobile app).
2. Add the FTM network (Fantom Opera) to your MetaMask wallet.
You can do this easily by clicking the link on SpookySwap DEX to connect your wallet to the network.
Optional – Add Fantom network to your MetaMask using the official Fantom guide here.
3. Buy some $FTM from Binance or your preferred exchange (see other exchange options here).
4. Send your purchased $FTM to the your MetaMask wallet.
5. Add the $FTM the contract to your wallet so the tokens appear in your wallet.
You can easily do this by clicking the MetaMask fox icon on CoinGecko here.
Optional – You can manually add the $FTM contract to your wallet using this address: 0x4e15361fd6b4bb609fa63c81a2be19d873717870
6. Add the $POWER contract to your wallet so the tokens appear in your wallet.
Use this CoinGecko link and follow the same instructions as adding FTM to your wallet.
Optional – You can manually add the $POWER contract to your wallet using this address: 0x131c7afb4e5f5c94a27611f7210dfec2215e85ae
7. Swap $FTM for $POWER through the SpookySwap exchange here.
Select FTM as the token to swap “from” and POWER as the token to swap “to”.
Enter the amount of $FTM you want to swap for $POWER.
You will need to connect your wallet to SpookySwap and make an approval transaction to allow SpookySwap to use the $FTM in your wallet. This will cost you a tiny amount of gas paid in $FTM.
You should now see a balance of $POWER tokens in your wallet.
