  conversion for you.

{% step %}
### Select Your Network

Go to the **Wallet** tab and click **Deposit**. You can choose from any of the following supported networks:

- **Ethereum** (Mainnet)
- **Base**
- **Arbitrum**
- **Optimism**
- **Polygon**
- **Solana**
{% endstep %}

{% step %}
### Choose Your Asset

You can deposit **USDC** directly, or send other major tokens (such as **ETH, SOL, or MATIC**) supported on that network.

- **Auto-Conversion:** If you send a non-USDC asset (e.g., ETH on Base), the platform will automatically swap it into USDC upon arrival so you can start trading immediately.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}
### Send Funds

Copy the unique deposit address displayed for your selected chain and send your funds from your external wallet or exchange.

{% hint style="warning" %}
**Minimum Deposit Requirement** Each chain has a specific **Minimum Deposit Amount** displayed clearly to the right of the chain name in the deposit window.

  **You MUST exceed this amount** for your deposit to land.

  - If you send less than the minimum, the transaction may not be processed by our custodians, and your funds could be lost.
  - Always check the minimum _before_ sending.
