Guide to buying SCROLL token using Uniswap Wallet
In this guide, we will go into detail on how to participate in a private sale using Uniswap Wallet.
Uniswap Wallet has gained worldwide recognition for its innovative concept and ease of use. Launched as part of the Uniswap ecosystem, one of the largest and most popular decentralized exchanges on the market, Uniswap Wallet has quickly become a sought-after tool among cryptocurrency users.
To buy a SCROLL token using Uniswap Wallet you will need the Uniswap Wallet app, as well as an exchange through which you will withdraw ETH to buy the token. In this guide, the ETH withdrawal is done through Binance exchange.
The Uniswap Wallet app is available for download at:
If you have any difficulties during the purchase process - at the end of the instructions you can see a block with popular difficulties and the way to solve them.
Let's move directly to the Uniswap Wallet app.
In this method we will create a Uniswap wallet, fund it from the exchange and connect it to buy token.
After downloading the application:
1 - Create a new wallet;
3 - Choose how we will save the seed-phrase (manually or ICloud);
We save the private phrase in a convenient place and then we are asked to choose the words in the correct order.
After that we need to replenish our created ETH wallet. To do this, let's copy the address of the wallet. The screenshot shows how you can do it.
The following steps will be shown using the Binance exchange. For other exchanges everything is identical.
Let's move on to transfer ETH from the exchange to our wallet
After downloading the application and registering an account (if you haven't registered before), we need to go through KYC-verification following the suggested instructions.
We will need a balance on the exchange wallet so that we can buy ETH for the swap. To do this:
1 - Search for ETH/USDT pair;
3 - Click “Buy”;
We're taken to the trade menu. Here we have only to:
1 - Select the order type “Market”;
2 - Enter the amount;
3 - Press the “Buy” button;
Now that we have ETH on our wallet, let's go to the Web3 section (step 3).
Withdraw the purchased funds to the previously copied Uniswap wallet address:
1 - On the exchange go to the “Wallet” section;
2 - Click the “Withdraw” button;
3 - Choose withdrawal by address in the blockchain network;
4 - Insert the address, the network must be ERC20, the amount and send (step4);
We wait until ETH enters the wallet, and we can proceed directly to the purchase.
Buying SCROLL token
Right in the Uniswap app we can make swaps. This is exactly what we need.
1 - Click on the “Swap” button, or alternatively “Swap”;
2- Enter the contract address of the SCROLL token into the search:
0xD0f1196Dfb044CA21D6feD0755a5E9B02218AfC4
After that, select the token that appears (step 3).
4 - Click “Buy”;
After selecting the token, we need to set the slippage parameter to 49%. Repeat the actions shown in the screenshot:
1 - Click on the settings gear;
2 - Select the adjustable slippage parameter;
3 - Set 49%;
Now all we have to do is enter the desired amount to purchase and exchange the token for ether. For simplicity, everything is shown in the screenshots:
We will need to confirm the transaction in the wallet and wait for it to go through. If something doesn't work out, we have prepared the next block with solutions to possible problems for you.
Solving possible problems during the purchase
Using these tips you will no longer have difficulties when buying tokens on the Uniswap platform
Let's find solutions to the most popular problems you may encounter:
Questions that can be answered here:
1 - Uniswap page won't load
2 - Can't find the token at the contracted address
3 - Difficulties with token purchase (Commission / transaction does not go through).
Let's start with the first point:
Uniswap page does not load
The problem may be due to Uniswap's regional restrictions. To get around this, install a VPN app on your device, refresh the Uniswap page, and try searching for the correct token again.
Often this solves the problem, but sometimes you will need to select the correct region. In my case, Germany always works, and the apps I use are available at the links:
For PC:
For iOS:
For Android:
Cannot find the token at the contracted address
This problem is similar to the previous one, so you should try everything from the previous point, including using different VPN applications, changing your browser and device.
The above steps should help you bypass the geo restrictions and find the token.
Difficulties with token purchase (Commission/ transaction does not go through)
There can be several reasons for this: not enough ETH for the commission, difficulty with the wallet or browser itself, etc.
Always pay attention to what exactly the commission amount is, and whether you have enough ETH to pay for the gas. In addition, it is also important to set the slippage parameter to 49%.
If none of the above helped, or you have another difficulty - try changing your wallet application and browser. In addition, I advise you to repeat the attempt not immediately, but after some time, because due to the huge load on the network during the private sale transactions can go badly.
If the problem is specifically related to the lack of ETH for commission, it is important to pay attention to the range of possible commission, which will be displayed when confirming the transaction. The easiest solution is to simply send more ETH to the wallet for the commission, or try entering fewer tokens for the swap.
