# How to Buy Space Token ?

The current Space Token exists on the following chains:

* BNB Smart Chain
* Ethereum
* Base
* Polygon
* Avalanche C-Chain
* Optimism
* Arbitrum
* Sonic
* Gnosis

There is no fundamental difference between the tokens other than the blockchains on which they reside.​

### 0. Where can we buy or sell SPACE ? <a href="#id-0.-where-can-we-buy-or-sell-space" id="id-0.-where-can-we-buy-or-sell-space"></a>

​We recommend buying SPACE on [SpaceSwap](https://spaceswap.tech/?utm_campaign=buy_space\&utm_medium=referral\&utm_source=gitbook) for a smoother experience. SpaceSwap is the official website for swapping Space Token. SpaceSwap is compatible with over 50 blockchain networks, including the ones compatible with SPACE.

We will explain here the steps you can take in order to buy SPACE if you're a newcomer to the crypto world.​

### 1. Create a Wallet <a href="#id-1.-create-a-wallet" id="id-1.-create-a-wallet"></a>

​First, you will need a Web3 wallet.

We recommend using [Rabby.io](https://rabby.io/) since that's probably the most secure and the user experience is great.

<table><thead><tr><th>Wallet</th><th width="66">Link</th><th>Devices</th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td><a href="https://rabby.io/">Rabby</a></td><td><span data-gb-custom-inline data-tag="emoji" data-code="1f517">🔗</span></td><td>iOS, Android, Chrome, Edge, Opera</td></tr><tr><td><a href="https://trustwallet.com/">Trust</a></td><td><span data-gb-custom-inline data-tag="emoji" data-code="1f517">🔗</span></td><td>iOS, Android, Chrome, Edge, Opera</td></tr><tr><td><a href="https://frame.sh/">Frame</a></td><td><span data-gb-custom-inline data-tag="emoji" data-code="1f517">🔗</span></td><td>Chrome, Firefox, Edge, Opera</td></tr><tr><td><a href="https://metamask.io/">Metamask</a></td><td><span data-gb-custom-inline data-tag="emoji" data-code="1f517">🔗</span></td><td>iOS, Android, Chrome, Firefox, Edge, Opera</td></tr></tbody></table>

Install one of these Web3 wallets, and [create a crypto wallet](https://mycryptoview.com/rabby/how-to/how-to-setup-rabby-wallet-metamask-alternative).

{% hint style="warning" %}
Always store your seed phrase in a secure location and *never* share it with anyone!
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="success" %}
We recommend using a [Ledger ](https://shop.ledger.com/?referral_code=WWBK23HFSGKMD)to secure your funds, [Ledger ](https://shop.ledger.com/?referral_code=WWBK23HFSGKMD)is an hardware wallet that works fine with any web3 wallet, including Metamask.
{% endhint %}

If you use MetaMask or Frame, you'll have to connect your wallet to the blockchain that you want to use.

MetaMask already ships with **Ethereum**, **Polygon**, **BNB Chain**, **Base**, **Arbitrum**, **Optimism** and **Avalanche**. Open the network menu, scroll down to **Additional networks**, and click **Add** next to the one you need — there is nothing to type in by hand.

{% hint style="info" %}
**Gnosis** and **Sonic** are not in that list. Add them with **Add a custom network**, from the same menu.
{% endhint %}

### 2. Buy SPACE

**2.1 Swap POL for SPACE on SpaceSwap**

To purchase SPACE using Polygon on SpaceSwap, follow these steps. Ensure you have POL in your wallet before proceeding.

**On Mobile:**

1. **Access Dapps Browser:** Open the Dapps browser in your wallet app. This is typically represented by an icon at the bottom center of the screen.
2. **Navigate to SpaceSwap:** Paste this [SpaceSwap link](https://spaceswap.tech/?fromAmount=50\&fromChain=137\&fromToken=0x0000000000000000000000000000000000000000\&toChain=137\&toToken=0xb53ec4ace420a62cfb75afdeba600d284777cd65\&utm_campaign=buy_space\&utm_medium=referral\&utm_source=gitbook) into the Dapps browser. Make sure to use the browser within your Web3 wallet app for seamless integration.

**On Desktop:**

1. **Open Web Browser:** Launch your preferred web browser.
2. **Access Web3 Wallet:** Ensure your Web3 Wallet extension (like Rabby) is unlocked and active.

*Step-by-Step Guide to Using SpaceSwap:*

1. **Access SpaceSwap:** Copy and paste [this SpaceSwap link](https://spaceswap.tech/?fromChain=137\&fromToken=0x0000000000000000000000000000000000000000\&toChain=137\&toToken=0xb53ec4ace420a62cfb75afdeba600d284777cd65\&utm_campaign=buy_space\&utm_medium=referral\&utm_source=gitbook) into your browser. Use the Web3 wallet browser on mobile devices.
2. **Connect Your Wallet:** Click on the '`Connect Wallet`' button to link your wallet to SpaceSwap.

3. **Prepare to Swap:** Enter the amount of POL you wish to swap for SPACE. Remember to reserve at least 0.5 POL in your wallet to cover transaction fees.
4. **Execute the Trade:** Once you have entered the desired amount and are ready to proceed, click on the '`Exchange`' button to initiate the swap.

{% hint style="info" %}
**Remember to leave some POL in your wallet to cover the gas fees required by the Polygon network.**
{% endhint %}

### 3. Add Space Token to the Wallet (Optional) <a href="#id-2.-add-space-token-to-the-wallet" id="id-2.-add-space-token-to-the-wallet"></a>

Once you own SPACE, your wallet does not always show it straight away. Recent MetaMask wallets find it by themselves on most networks. Trust Wallet never does, and **Gnosis** and **Sonic** always need a manual import.

If SPACE is missing from your token list, add it as a custom token using the details below:
