Welcome to our guide that teaches you how to transfer MOONs or BRICKs to/from your Kraken account!

Please note that this guide was written for MetaMask users, but you can use your preferred wallet. The instructions will be very similar no matter which one you use.

We encourage you to do your own research throughout this guide. Don’t trust; verify! And if you have any questions or you spot anything that needs updated along the way, just ping us in the thread. 🙂

1️⃣ How to import your Reddit Vault seed to your wallet

  1. If you already have a wallet set up, you may be required to uninstall then reinstall the application/extension in order to import your Reddit Vault seed.
  2. After reinstalling, you’ll see a prompt in your MetaMask wallet that says ‘Import using Secret Recovery Phrase.’ Click on that.
  3. On the next screen, you’ll see a field where you can insert your Secret Recovery Phrase and also set up a separate password for your wallet.

⚠️ CAUTION

A little note about doing this: Be extremely careful when importing your seed to ANY wallet. Double and triple check that you have the official wallet app and/or extension installed. There are imposter apps/extensions out there that are created for the purpose of tricking people into handing over their seeds.

NO SUPPORT PERSON WILL EVER ASK FOR YOUR SEED. Never share your seed with any person you don’t trust, and ensure that there is no one around you when interacting with your seed. If a bad actor gets their hands on this, they will be able to take your MOONs or BRICKs (and any other funds you may have in your wallet).

2️⃣ How to add the Arbitrum Nova network to your wallet

Once inside the wallet, you will first want to change the network to Arbitrum Nova. Here’s how you do this:

In your MetaMask wallet, click where it says ‘Ethereum Main Network.’

  1. You’ll then want to choose ‘Add Network.’
  2. Find the option that allows you to put in a custom network.
  3. You’ll then be presented with several fields to fill out. The requested information can be found on several reputable websites, including Arbitrum’s website. Although I’ll paste it below, I encourage you to do your own research and verify that what’s written below is correct.

Configuration for Arbitrum Nova

Network Name Arbitrum Nova
RPC
Chain ID 42170
Currency Symbol ETH
Block explorer URL

3️⃣ How to import MOONs or BRICKs

  1. Back at your main screen in your MetaMask account, locate and click on the button that says ‘Import tokens.’
  2. In the field that says ‘Token address,’ insert the contract address of MOONs or BRICKs. The contract address of MOON or BRICK tokens can be found on websites like CoinGecko and also directly on the Arbitrum Nova block explorer which is linked above! As always, we recommend doing your own research.
Token Name Contract Address
MOON 0x0057ac2d777797d31cd3f8f13bf5e927571d6ad0
BRICK 0x6dcb98f460457fe4952e12779ba852f82ecc62c1
  1. Click down in the next field where you can insert the ticker, and it should populate.
  2. When you go back to the main screen and refresh, you should now see your tokens.

4️⃣ How to supply your wallet with ETH (for gas) using the Reddit faucet bot u/MOON2gas

  1. Visit the r/CryptoCurrencyMoons subreddit.
  2. Use the following command:

!gas nova

The bot will then send you enough funds for gas. You can do this every 30 days!

If the bot is out of funds or if this isn’t a viable option for you, we’ve included another option in the next section. ⤵

5️⃣ How to send ETH to your wallet and bridge it to Arbitrum Nova

What is a bridge? Well, it’s a platform that bridges assets from one network to another. 🌉

For example, if you send ETH from Kraken to your wallet over Ethereum Main Network, you would only be able to see these funds and interact with them when you have ‘Ethereum Main Network’ enabled in MetaMask.

If you want that ETH to be on Arbitrum Nova network instead, you would have to use a bridge such as Arbitrum Bridge (again, DYOR) to move them them from Ethereum Main Network to Arbitrum Nova. (Note: If on your mobile device, you would use the browser within MetaMask to access the bridge.)

The process flow would be as follows:

  1. Send ETH from Kraken to your MetaMask wallet over Ethereum Main Network.
  2. Once the funds arrive, visit the Arbitrum Bridge, and move your funds to Arbitrum Nova.

It’s a relatively straightforward process, but it does cost quite a bit of gas when doing anything on Ethereum Mainnet. 😅

As an alternative, you could send ETH to your wallet over Arbitrum One:

  1. Add Arbitrum One to your custom networks in MetaMask. Configurations are below, but again, please do your own research to verify this information.

Configuration for Arbitrum One

Network Name Arbitrum One
RPC
Chain ID 42161
Currency Symbol ETH
Block Explorer URL
  1. Send ETH from your Kraken account to your wallet’s ETH address on Arbitrum One.
  2. You would then use the bridge to move the ETH from Arbitrum One to Arbitrum Nova.

The benefit of doing it this way is you’ll spend a lot less in gas, but the negative is that you’ll have to go through the whole process of adding another network.

6️⃣ How to deposit MOONs or BRICKs in your Kraken account

You should now have your MOON or BRICK tokens as well as ETH visible in your wallet, and you should be set up on the Arbitrum Nova network.

Assuming you already have a fully verified Kraken account, you should now be able to deposit your MOON or BRICK tokens to your Kraken account. The instructions slightly vary depending on which interface you’re using, so please choose the correct one below:

🚨 IMPORTANT

  • Always ensure that you’re sending funds over a network that is supported by both the sending and receiving wallet/exchange.
  • When sending funds anywhere, it’s a good idea to double and triple check that you pasted the correct receiving address.
  • Consider sending a test transaction. This is the minimum amount able to be sent just to ensure it arrives to your Kraken account safely! You can check our minimums here.

7️⃣ How to withdraw MOONs or BRICKs from your Kraken account

If you have MOONs or BRICKs in your Kraken account balance, you should be able to withdraw them to the wallet of your choosing. Again, the instructions vary slightly depending on which Kraken interface you’re using, so please choose the correct one below:
