Select “Custom network”, click “Add network”, and fill in the new network information, such as the RPC information of Qitmeer Network.

Click on the “Receive” button to enter the “Select crypto” interface. Locate BNB (Binance Coin) and choose the BNB Smart Chain channel to obtain your asset receiving address.

8、Preparation for Using IceCreamSwap Operations

You can authorize access to IceCreamSwap in the OKX Wallet to swap USDT assets from the BSC network to the Qitmeer network, then use the swapped USDT to purchase MEER and perform liquidity pool (LP) operations.
Before proceeding with these operations, ensure you have enough BNB Smart Chain (BSC) USDT for the cross-chain operation and some BNB to cover gas fees. Are you ready? Let’s get started!

9、Accessing the IceCreamSwap Website

Open your OKX Wallet application and navigate to the “Discover” option.
In the DApp search bar, enter and access IceCreamSwap: https://icecreamswap.com/
You will be redirected to the IceCreamSwap platform where you can perform desired operations such as bridge, trading, and adding liquidity pools.

10、Select Network

IceCreamSwap allows users to transfer assets between different blockchains. Here, we will demonstrate transferring USDT assets from Binance Smart Chain (BSC) to the Qitmeer Network.
For the first cross-chain operation, select “BNB Smart Chain Mainnet”.

Special Note: You cannot directly use existing Meer USDT to participate in IceCreamSwap operations. Meer USDT on Tether USD and KAHF wallets are not interoperable as they belong to different tokens.

The contract address for Tether USD is: 0x7D5a56742C082FcDfc240cd7D1775f00e059771F

11、Bridge

On the IceCreamSwap website, locate “Bridge” to access the cross-chain bridge page.
Select Binance Smart Chain (BSC) as the source chain and Qitmeer Network as the target chain.
Next, choose the asset you want to transfer, enter the quantity, and click “Bridge Now” to initiate the transfer.

Next, in the popup window, click “Confirm” and follow the wallet prompts to complete the transaction confirmation.

After the transaction is completed, IceCreamSwap will prompt you that the assets have been successfully transferred to the target chain.

12、Swap

Find the “Trade” feature entrance on IceCreamSwap, click on “Swap” to enter the exchange page.
Now, to purchase MEER using Swap USDT, switch the network to “Qitmeer Network Mainnet”.

On the Swap page, select the asset pair you wish to exchange, for example, USDT to MEER.
Enter the quantity of USDT you want to exchange, then click “Swap”. The system will automatically calculate the amount of MEER you will receive and the current exchange rate.
After verifying the exchange asset, target asset, and exchange quantity, click “Confirm Swap” in the popup window.

Click “Confirm” and authorize the transaction confirmation in your wallet.

After the Swap transaction is completed, you can click on “Add MEER to Wallet” to add the MEER Token to your wallet.

13、Liquidity

In IceCreamSwap’s “Trade” section, locate the “Liquidity” feature, then click on the “Add Liquidity” button to access the liquidity page. It’s recommended to choose the V2 pool to maximize capital efficiency.

On the liquidity provisioning page, select the asset pair you want to provide liquidity for, such as MEER/USDT.
After entering the quantities of MEER and USDT in the liquidity provision input boxes, click the “Add” button.

In the pop-up window, carefully review the provided fund quantities and asset pairs to ensure accuracy. Once confirmed, click “Confirm Supply”, then click “Confirm” to complete the transaction.

After providing liquidity, you can view the liquidity funds you’ve provided either on the liquidity pool page or in your wallet.
