Hello everyone. In this guide, we will learn how to buy meme coins on the TON network. To acquire potential meme coins on TON before they are listed on centralized exchanges, we need a platform called geckoterminal, which is a tool for tracking Decentralized Exchanges (DEX). Here, you can find detailed information about various coins on different networks such as SOLANA, BNB, ETH, AVALANCHE, etc.
Please exercise caution when investing and only use funds you can afford to lose. Wishing you success in your trading endeavors!
Step 1: You access the geckoterminal
page, look at the left-hand side, you will see a list of underlying coins, you scroll down and select TON.
Step 2: You will see all meme coins on the TON network. They are categorized as follows:
- Top volume: 24-hour trading volume
- Top Gainers: Highest gainers
- Top losers: Biggest losers
Step 3: You click on the coin you want to buy, in this example, I will choose the FISH coin. Then, you click on the “swap” button to proceed with swapping the coin. Typically, we will swap the TON coin on two DEX platforms, STON.FI and Dedust.io. If you don’t know how to create a TON wallet, you can refer to my article on how to create a TON
wallet.
You scroll down to the bottom and find the address of the coin you want to purchase, then click copy and paste it into the search bar to ensure it finds the correct address of the coin you want to swap.
You access the STON.FI
or dedust.io
website, depending on the coin you are buying. Then, you click on “connect wallet” to connect your TON wallet to the DEX platform.
In the “swap token” section:
- You send: you select the amount of TON you want to swap
- You receive: you paste the address of the coin you want to buy here
You press swap to exchange from TON token to another meme coin.
