Wrapped ETH is the main currency on the Nifty Underground platform. Simply put, Wrapped ETH is ETH on the Polygon Mainnet (the blockchain that Nifty Underground is built on).

MATIC is used to pay transaction fees and minting fees on the Polygon Mainnet. Compared to the Ethereum blockchain, transaction fees on Polygon are minimal, making our NFTs more accessible to everybody.

To purchase Wrapped ETH (Polygon), go to https://www.moonpay.com/ and select "Ethereum (Polygon)" as the currency to buy. Purchase desired amount and head on back to Nifty Underground to start purchasing NFTs!

Here are the steps on how you can move ETH to the Polygon Mainnet so you can have Wrapped ETH to buy NFTs on Nifty Underground -

Step 1: Make sure you have ETH on your Metamask address. If you're looking to purchase ETH, go to Coinbase, Wyre, or Transak. After purchasing, transfer ETH to your MetaMask's address.
