Token Swap set up- Step 1 and 2

Step one and two will help you open up your first Matrix wallet to complete the swap, it will essentially set up the process to connect your current MEW wallet to your new Matrix wallet. Basically this step will help you to create your first new Matrix wallet address etc.

First, make sure your MAN tokens are in your MEW wallet. Now use your MEW wallet credentials (private key/Keystore file) to access your Matrix wallet. Basically you will go on the Matrix wallet site and access the wallet using your MEW wallet credentials. Logging in with your MEW credentials will also log you into your new Matrix wallet, giving you access to your Matrix wallet address etc. At this point you will be able to see your Matrix wallet address, to confirm this, you can move onto step number 3 in the part 2 section of the official manual. When you do this step, it should show you the same Matrix address that you are logged into. This is a simple way to double confirm our Matrix address just to be safe.

Please Note: These beginning steps are just to unveil your new Matrix wallet address.

Doing the Matrix Token Swap (Example 1 in the manual)

After completing the firs phase, you are now ready to do the actual swap. Make sure there’s some Ethereum in your wallet for gas.

Selecting the “Mapping” segment on the top right of the wallet site. You may or may not have to log in again. Now that you have entered this section, it should show you at the top how many Matrix tokens you have in your connected MEW wallet (You connected the MEW when you logged into the Matrix site with your MEW credentials). Now move unto step 3 (as seen on page 8/14). Here you can select how much MAN you wish to convert. The current gas prices displayed on that page before you press confirm should be fine, I typically change the gas etc a little higher on both parts ( If it says 1500000 Gas limit/price wei, I put in 1600000 or 180000 for it to process a little faster etc) Before pressing confirm, review the current page to make sure everything you entered is correct. Make sure the “Receive eth address is correct on that page as well. It should be the Burn address (0xA27d3632A283c138C2F78ba21d1e473a500e4AF3. Now if you feel confident that everything is correct, you may press confirm. copy the transaction ID/hash after pressing confirm. With that you can wait awhile and log into your MEW to make sure the process sent your MAN tokens to the burn address. The process to get the MAN swapped to your new Matrix MAN address wallet often takes up to 48 hours to go through.
