Acquiring FTM¶

Now that you're set up in MetaMask, you can browse any Fantom dapps with ease. Each account on Ethereum also exists on Fantom which means you can use the same addresses without issues on Ethereum and Fantom. Please note Fantom does not yet support MetaMask via Ledger.

To get started you'll need to get Fantom native currency FTM, you can acquire it on SushiSwap or most centralised exchanges. For the latter, you can transfer directly to your Fantom address via the Fantom blockchain. If you purchase FTM on the Ethereum blockchain, you can cross to Fantom using bridges.

This will let you transfer FTM from Ethereum to Fantom and start transacting.
