Bitcoin.me features a powerful DEX for users who prefer self-custody. Using the Bitcoin.me DEX, you can seamlessly exchange cryptocurrencies directly from your Klever Extension. Swapping on a DEX means you interact directly with smart contracts, keeping full custody of your assets without relying on a centralized intermediary.
If you want to swap external assets like USDT (TRC20 or ERC20) for specific ecosystem tokens like DVK, a direct trading pair may not always be available. To complete this trade, you will need to use KLV- the foundational token of the ecosystem - as a bridge. Simply swap your USDT for KLV first, and then perform a second swap using the specific KLV/DVK trading pair to receive your desired tokens.
Swapping tokens directly from your self-custody wallet is quick and secure on the Bitcoin.me DEX. In this example, we will look at swapping KLV for KFI.
Prerequisite: Ensure your Klever Extension is unlocked and connected to the Bitcoin.me platform.
