How to Buy dSocially Tokens

Set up of wallet and exchange account

To participate in the DSO token sale, you’ll need a crypto wallet. You can choose from options like Metamask, Coinbase Wallet, Wallet Connect, or Ledger.

Below are some helpful resources:

If you prefer using a hardware wallet, Ledger is a great choice. Learn how to set up a Ledger account here.

Acquiring Circle USDC Tokens

Once you’ve set up your wallet, the next step is to acquire Circle USDC tokens. The easiest way to do this is by creating an exchange account.

For users in the US, Coinbase is a popular option, while Binance is also a great choice. Both exchanges offer reliable fiat on-ramps.

Purchasing USDC and Preparing for the Token Sale

After setting up your exchange account and wallet, you can purchase USDC on the exchange and transfer the tokens to your wallet.
Once the funds are in your wallet, you’ll be ready to connect to the token sale page. Keep in mind that you’ll also need Ethereum (ETH) in your wallet to cover transaction fees. Typically, $10 worth of ETH should be sufficient for this.

The token sale will take place on the Base Chain network.

Disclaimer

Participation in the token sale is at your own risk. SAFE Future Network is not liable for any loss of assets, including but not limited to errors such as sending funds to incorrect or invalid wallet addresses, loss of private keys, or mismanagement of your personal wallet. Please make sure to double-check all information and take the necessary steps to secure your assets. We strongly advise you to carefully review all transaction details before proceeding.

How to perform the token sale

In this guide, we’ll be using the Metamask wallet.
First, navigate to the token sale page

Select Base Chain and connect your wallet. (We’re using the Ethereum Sepolia test network for this guide.)

On the token sale page, you’ll find key information about the sale, including details like soft cap, hard cap, and the sale period.

To proceed, click the “Invest” button.
Important: The investment process requires two steps:

  1. First, click “Invest” to approve your wallet for sending the payment.
  2. Then, enter the amount you want to invest and click “Submit investment.”

Please do not send tokens directly to the sale contract, as they may be lost.

Next, approve the spending of USDC. (If you’ve already used USDC with Metamask, this step may not be necessary.)

Enter your desired investment amount and press “Submit investment.”

Finally, confirm the purchase in your Metamask wallet. Once confirmed, you can review your transaction on the Base Chain Explorer.

When Does the Token Sale End?

The token sale will automatically conclude when one of the following conditions is met:

  1. The specified sale duration ends. At this point, the total investment could be either above or below the soft cap.
  2. The sale ends early if all available tokens are sold, meaning the hard cap has been reached.

How and When to Claim Your Tokens

After your token purchase is completed, your tokens will be locked for a period of 6 months following the end of the token sale. Once the lock-up period is over, you will be able to claim your tokens from the same page where you made the purchase.

What Happens if the Sale Fails?

If the soft cap is not reached within the designated time frame, users will be able to withdraw their invested funds. The USDC tokens are locked during the sale and will only be released once the sale is declared either a success or a failure.
