Get a wallet

Your wallet holds the keys to your DYN. Pick the one that fits how you'll use it. You can always add another later.

Get DYN

DYN trades on Base as wDYN. You buy wDYN with USDC or ETH, then bridge it to native DYN in your wallet.

  1. 1

    Get USDC or ETH on Base

    Buy it on an exchange such as Coinbase, which can send directly to the Base network, or move funds you already have on Base.

  2. 2

    Swap for wDYN on Aerodrome

    Connect any Base wallet to Aerodrome and swap into wDYN. Paste the contract address below rather than searching by name.

  3. 3

    Bridge to native DYN

    Early access

    In the Dynamo Hub, convert wDYN to DYN to earn holder rewards and use it across Dynamo apps.

Only use this address. Tokens with similar names exist and are not Dynamo.

Keep it safe

Crypto has no reset button. A few habits protect you from almost every common loss.

Never share your recovery phrase

No real person or service will ever ask for it. Anyone who does is trying to steal from you.

Keep more than one backup

Write your phrase down and store copies in different safe places. Test that a backup works.

Send a small amount first

Before a large transfer, send a little and confirm it arrives.

Check addresses carefully

Compare the first and last characters of every address you paste. Malware can swap them.
