How To Buy CAT on DEX (Solana)

If you’re new to Web3, don’t worry—getting started with a wallet on Solana is easier than it sounds. Follow this step-by-step guide to create a Phantom wallet, set it up for Solana, and start holding CAT.

How to Create a Phantom Wallet

If you don’t already have a Phantom wallet, follow these steps to create one and start managing your CAT tokens on Solana.

Step 1: Install Phantom Wallet

  1. Visit the Phantom Website: Go to phantom.app.

  2. Download the Extension: Click Download and choose the appropriate version for your browser (Chrome, Firefox, Edge, or Brave).

    • Alternatively, download the Phantom mobile app from the App Store or Google Play Store for your smartphone.

Step 2: Add the Extension to Your Browser

  2. Once installed, you'll see the Phantom icon in your browser toolbar. Click it to open the wallet.

Step 3: Create a New Wallet

  1. Click Create a New Wallet on the Phantom setup screen.

  2. Save Your Secret Recovery Phrase:

    • You’ll be given a 12-word secret recovery phrase.

    • Write it down and store it in a secure place (offline, not on your device).

    • Never share your recovery phrase with anyone. It’s the only way to recover your wallet if you lose access.

  3. Confirm that you’ve saved the phrase by completing the on-screen verification.

Step 4: Set a Wallet Password

  1. Choose a strong password for your wallet.

  2. This password will be used to unlock the Phantom wallet on your browser or device.

Step 5: Complete Setup

  1. Once your wallet is created, Phantom will walk you through its features, including sending and receiving tokens, swapping assets, and viewing NFTs.

  2. The wallet will now be accessible from your browser extension or mobile app.

Step 6: Add SOL to Your Wallet

  1. Copy your wallet address by clicking the Receive button in Phantom and copying the provided address.

  2. Use this address to send SOL from a centralized exchange (e.g., Binance, Coinbase, Kraken) or another wallet.
