How to Buy BMIC — Step by Step
Step 1: Get ETH or USDT
Purchase ETH or USDT from a reputable exchange: Coinbase, Kraken, or Binance. Fund your account via bank transfer or card. ETH and USDT are the two accepted payment methods for the BMIC presale.
Step 2: Set Up MetaMask or Trust Wallet
Download MetaMask (browser extension at metamask.io) or Trust Wallet (mobile at trustwallet.com). Only download from official sources. During setup, you'll receive a 12-word seed phrase — write it on paper and store it offline. Never digitise your seed phrase.
Step 3: Transfer Funds to Your Wallet
From your exchange, send ETH or USDT to your MetaMask or Trust Wallet address. Double-check the receiving address before confirming — blockchain transactions are irreversible. Allow 1-5 minutes for confirmation on Ethereum.
Step 4: Connect to bmic.ai
Navigate to bmic.ai (verify the URL carefully — type it directly, don't click links from unknown sources). Click "Buy BMIC" and select your wallet type. Approve the connection in MetaMask or Trust Wallet when prompted.
Step 5: Buy BMIC
Select ETH or USDT as your payment currency. Enter the amount you wish to invest. The interface will show you the equivalent BMIC tokens at the current presale price of $0.0528542. Review the details and click "Buy Now."
Step 6: Confirm in Your Wallet
Your wallet will prompt you to confirm the transaction and approve the gas fee. Review and confirm. After blockchain confirmation (1-5 minutes on Ethereum), your BMIC purchase is complete.
Step 7: Stake for post-quantum security
Don't let your tokens sit idle. Access the BMIC staking interface and stake for post-quantum security while waiting for TGE Q2 2026. This earns you additional BMIC tokens every day.
