The FOMOEgg egg in the studio, illustrating: How to buy a memecoin?
Short answer

You need a wallet, the chain's gas token, and a swap on an exchange or app. We explain each step and the checks before you press confirm.

How to check it yourself

  1. Get the contract address from the project's official channel, not from a search result or a reply.
  2. Check that your wallet is on the right network and holds enough of the gas token before any swap.
  3. Before you confirm, read the swap screen: the amount out, the slippage setting and the network fee.
