First things first, you need a wallet.
If someone will transfer ETH and other crypto tokens directly to your wallet skip to the creating a wallet with MetaMask. Otherwise, the first step is on-boarding fiat currency into a custodial wallet using a bank account or credit card and a Centralized Exchange (CEX) like:
Binance - or US Residents:
Kraken -
Coinbase (english only) -
Gate.io -
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.
For a through guide to setting up a MetaMask wallet .
Withdraw ETH (or another ERC20 token) from your Centralized Exchange Wallet and deposit the tokens in your Metamask Wallet.
Use the MetaMask mobile app or using a web browser with the MetaMask extension installed to browse to the DeFi protocol you would like to participate in and follow the instructions on the website to start participating in DeFi.
