STEP 1 OF 8
What is a crypto wallet?
Before buying anything, you need a wallet. Think of it like a bank account — but one that only you control.
1
A wallet holds your crypto. Like a bank account, but without a bank.
2
No one can access it but you. Not even Metriplex.
3
You don't need to download anything. We use Coinbase Smart Wallet — it works in any browser with Face ID or fingerprint.
💡 Tip: Coinbase Smart Wallet is free, instant, and requires no seed phrase. Perfect for beginners.

What is ETH?
To buy MPX, you first need ETH. Think of ETH as the fuel that powers crypto transactions.
Ξ
Ethereum
ETH · The fuel of crypto
ETH is the most widely used crypto after Bitcoin. You need a small amount to pay for transactions (called "gas fees"). On Base network, fees are less than $0.10.
💡 You only need $10–15 of ETH. A small part covers fees (~$0.10), the rest becomes MPX.
STEP 3 OF 8
What is the Base network?
MPX lives on a network called Base. It's important to understand the difference between networks.
✗ NOT THIS
Ξ
ETH on Ethereum
Expensive fees ($5–50 per transaction). MPX is not here.
✓ USE THIS
🔵
ETH on Base
Ultra-cheap fees (<$0.10). MPX lives here. Built by Coinbase.
✗ NOT THIS
BNB (Binance)
Different network. You can't buy MPX with BNB directly.
✗ NOT THIS
SOL (Solana)
Different blockchain entirely. MPX is not on Solana.
💡 The key rule: You need ETH specifically on the Base network. Not Ethereum mainnet, not BNB, not SOL.
STEP 4 OF 8
Buy ETH on Base with your card
Now you'll get ETH on the Base network using your credit or debit card. This is the only step that costs real money.
1
Click the button below to open Coinbase Pay.
2
Make sure "Base" network is selected — not Ethereum mainnet.
3
Buy at least $10 of ETH. We recommend $15–20 to have a comfortable buffer for fees.
4
ETH will arrive in your wallet in a few minutes.
💡 Coming from Binance? You can buy ETH on Binance and withdraw it directly to your wallet address — select "Base" as the withdrawal network.

What is Uniswap?
To exchange your ETH for MPX, you'll use Uniswap — a decentralized exchange. No signup needed.
🦄
Uniswap
DEX · Decentralized Exchange
Uniswap is like a currency exchange kiosk — but automatic and open 24/7. You connect your wallet, choose what you want to swap, and it happens instantly. No account, no KYC, no waiting.
No registration — just connect your wallet
Non-custodial — your crypto never leaves your wallet until the swap
Instant — swaps complete in seconds on Base network

How the swap works
Here's exactly what happens when you swap ETH for MPX:

yours!
1
Open Uniswap — MPX is pre-selected as the output token
2
Connect your Coinbase Wallet
3
Enter the amount of ETH to swap (start with $10)
4
Important: set slippage to 1–2% in Uniswap settings (⚙️ icon)
5
Click Swap and confirm in your wallet
💡 What is slippage? It's the maximum price change you accept during the swap. 1–2% is normal. If the swap fails, try increasing to 3%.
STEP 7 OF 8
Swap ETH for MPX
This is it. Click the button below — Uniswap will open with MPX already selected. Connect your wallet and swap.
Metriplex (MPX)
🔵 Base Network
MPX is the token of the first blockchain with fractal identity. Fixed supply of 21,000,000 — like Bitcoin. Contract verified on BaseScan.
💡 Contract address (verify before swapping):
0x22D3f414438556d1B071cCfE52513d4d829400fd
Open Uniswap — Swap ETH → MPX →
STEP 8 OF 8
You did it! 🎉
You now hold MPX — a token backed by real cryptographic research and a working Layer 1 blockchain.
MPX is now in your wallet
Your identity on Metriplex is a geometric shape — a fractal attractor unique to you. Order from chaos.
