Investing in DeFi is a three stage process.

This guide references DeFi Basics and assumes you have an understanding of basic DeFi concepts as outlined on our DeFi Basics page.

First things first, you need a wallet.

How do I setup a wallet?

Fiat currency is used to purchase ETH tokens on a CEX. Once the ETH tokens are available for withdrawal to a crypto address (wallet) outside of the it's time to create a crypto wallet for the Ethereum network. We recommend using MetaMask.
