Unfortunately, Fetch.ai is currently one of the more complicated cryptocurrencies to stake due to their recent changes. Fetch.ai currently exists in 2 forms – the ERC20 version and the native coin version. Most exchanges, with the exception of Binance and HitBTC, currently hold the ERC20 version and must make the journey of Exchange -> MetaMask -> Fetch.ai Token Bridge -> Cosmostation. We will guide you through this journey to make it as simple as possible.

If you have the native coin version of Fetch.ai, you can skip directly to the Cosmostation section

If you’re unsure which version of Fetch.ai you have, if your current FET address starts with “0x”, you have the ERC20 version. If your current FET address starts with “fetch”, you have the native coin version.

There is a 100 FET minimum to convert your ERC20 FET into the native coin version.

Prerequisites:

  1. Have about $50-100 worth of ETH available to send to pay for possible future fees. You shouldn’t need all of this amount but it’s just to be safe.
  2. Get the MetaMask app for your computer.
  3. Get the Cosmostation app for your mobile device.

How to install MetaMask

  1. Go to https://metamask.io/download.html and download the extension for your chosen browser.

2. After installing the MetaMask, start it up if it didn’t do so automatically and click “Get Started”.

4. After creating your account, you will see an entry for ETH already on your account. To send the $50-100 ETH to your MetaMask wallet, hover over your account name so that it says “Copy to clipboard” and click so that it copies your wallet address. Use this somewhere else to see your full address if you need to type it in manually or paste it directly onto the website/app you are sending ETH from.

7. Since FET is an Ethereum token, send your FET to the same address you originally sent your ETH to add your FET to MetaMask.

8. After you’ve received your FET on MetaMask, you’re now ready to convert it into the native coin and send it to Cosmostation.

Fetch.ai Token Bridge

With your ERC20 FET on MetaMask, we will now use the Fetch.ai Token Bridge to convert it to the native coin and send it to Cosmostation.

  1. Go to the Fetch.ai Token Bridge at https://token-bridge.fetch.ai/

2. The website will ask you to unlock your MetaMask account. Go ahead and do so.

5. Back at the Fetch.ai Token Bridge, paste your Cosmostation FET address into the “Native Address” field. Afterwards, enter in the amount of FET you wish to transfer to Cosmostation. There is a 100 FET minimum to transfer. Confirm the transaction through MetaMask. It is normal for the transaction to take a while, do not panic if you do not see your FET on Cosmostation for a few minutes.
