Currently, I found a cheaper way to trade and swap for Virtuals Protocol and its coins on the Base network for US users
I found a cheaper way to trade than using Ethereum. ETH gas fees and swap fees are too high. Sometimes you have to wait 10+ mins for a trade to finish. Due to ETH high gas fees, I do the following now.
For US users:
Use RocketX exchange or Uniswap exchange and buy USD Coin (USDC) on Base network with a debit card then swap for Virtuals Protocol. You can also swap for any of Virtuals Protocol tokens on Base network like GAME by Virtuals or aixbt by Virtuals.
*Note you can also go to the official Virtuals Protcol website use your USDC coin on Base network to swap for the Virtuals Protocol or any of Virtuals Protocol tokens on Base network like GAME by Virtuals or aixbt by Virtuals. Also, on the RocketX exhange, don't use the Walletless option. That option takes way too long.
This is not investment advice as investing is pure speculation and not indicative of past or future gains or losses.
Good Luck!
