As requested by our community members we have made a guide on how you can purchase IXS tokens.
As IXS is available on both the Ethereum and Polygon networks, we will cover the various options for obtaining these tokens. It's worth noting that if you plan to stake or add liquidity to IXS, it's best to do so on the Polygon network as the transaction fees on the Ethereum network can be quite high.
For a full list of places to buy IXS, please refer to our CoinMarketCap page.

Note: Keep in mind that the network you are withdrawing your tokens on will determine the type of token you receive. If you withdraw on the Ethereum network, you will receive IXS tokens. However, if you withdraw on the Polygon network, the tokens will be referred to as wIXS.
2. QuickSwap (Polygon Network -wIXS)
IXS on the Polygon network is referred to as WIXS. IXS and WIXS are the same token and have the same value. 1 WIXS is 1 IXS if there is a small price difference it is due to the different exchanges. Note as well that if using QuickSwap to buy WIXS, you need to use MATIC as a purchase currency.
Before going to the QuickSwap Exchange, you need to have MATIC on your wallet with that amount you wish to purchase WIXS with. Or make sure that you can swap to MATIC from another currency on QuickSwap as an additional step.
Remember that when you click on the amount of MATIC you want to use to buy WIXS, it is important to not click MAX because you will need some MATIC left in your wallet to pay for transactions on the Polygon network as this is their native token used for transaction costs.
Once you have MATIC in your wallet, please follow these steps:
- Go to https://quickswap.exchange/#/
- Connect your wallet.
- Choose Swap from “MATIC” and on the “to” section, click on “Select a token” and paste our WIXS token address: “0x1ba17c639bdaecd8dc4aac37df062d17ee43a1b8”. After WIXS has been, added click on it.
- Chose the amount of MATIC you want to use to purchase IXS.
- Swap and confirm the transaction!
If you cant see your WIXS in your wallet, you have to add the contract address manually to your wallet.
On Metamask, for example, you can scroll down on the homepage and click import tokens. You can refer to this guide (https://metamask.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/360015489031-How-to-add-unlisted-tokens-custom-tokens-in-MetaMask) if you need assistance or come by our Telegram channel!
WIXS Contract Address: 0x1ba17c639bdaecd8dc4aac37df062d17ee43a1b8
