Why Wallet Set Up Matters

During TGE, BDAG is issued directly on the BlockDAG mainnet. Wallets must be connected to the BDAG network to:

View your BDAG balance
Interact with on-chain contracts eg; allocation and vesting contracts
Send and receive transactions

Setting Up your Wallet

BDAG is primarily supported by major EVM-compatible wallets for storing, buying, and interacting with its ecosystem.

The recommended wallets include MetaMask, Trust Wallet, Bitget Wallet, and Plus Wallet.

These wallets connect via WalletConnect to the BlockDAG platform. For other wallets you should contact your wallet provider support direct.

It is important to note that BlockDAG does not provide support for third party wallets. We do however provide the critical details for you to connect to the BlockDAG Network. See above.

Here are some generic steps you can use:

Metamask:

Trust Wallet:

Cold Wallet:

Connecting your Wallet to the BDAG Network

If the network or token does not appear automatically in your selected wallet of choice, you may add it manually.

General steps:

Open wallet settings.

Select “Add Network” or “Custom Network”.
Enter the official BlockDAG network details.
Save the network.

Use only the verified BlockDAG mainnet parameters below when adding the network manually.

Here are the official Mainnet Details to connect your wallet to the BDAG Network

Network Name: BlockDAG Mainnet

RPC URL: https://rpc.bdagscan.com

Chain ID: 1404

Explorer: https://bdagscan.com

Chain Type: EVM- compatible

Mainnet Launch - What should I do

The BlockDAG mainnet goes live and the ecosystem becomes operational, validating real transactions and creating on chain verifiable blocks.

What users should do:

1. Ensure you retain access to the wallet used during presale or the wallet linked to your  dashboard.

Via: https://purchase3.blockdag.network

2. No claims or BDAG will be allocated on Day 1. Mainnet Launch

Token Generation Event (TGE) and Claim Process

BDAG claiming opens via the BlockDAG dashboard.
Circulating supply is released in line with the published vesting schedule.

What you should do:

Log in to the BlockDAG Dashboard https://purchase3.blockdag.network
Connect the same wallet used during presale. Select “Claim BDAG”.
Confirm the transaction in your wallet. You will need to sign the transaction in your wallet that you used as part of the presale process. (You will be prompted to sign / verify the transaction so follow the prompts) This will ensure that you are the reciprocate to receive your presale purchase allocation of BDAG.

Claim Process Overview

Claims are executed on-chain.
Tokens are sent directly to your connected wallet.
Only the portion unlocked at TGE is claimable. Based on the vesting contract allocation and your presale parameters. (Default vesting is: 40% then 20% per month over 3 months.)
Any remaining allocation is released automatically according to vesting.

Additional Notes:

BlockDAG does not charge claim fees.
Users pay only standard network gas fees.
Claims do not expire and can be completed later if needed.

https://purchase3.blockdag.network

You will be required to connect your wallet so that the dashboard can retrieve your data and history
This is simply a matter of clicking Connect Wallet button, and follow the prompts.

NOTE: You must use the wallet that you identified when you purchased your BDAG as this is where you BDAG has been allocated to at TGE.

If you have changed your wallet since TGE, then you will need to move the assets (inc BDAG) into the new wallet.

At TGE, allocations are done in batches so if you have set up your wallet and connected successfully to the BDAG Network then you may need to be patient whilst your batch is processed. All batches will be processed prior to Listings go live.

Your BDAG is allocated to the wallet that you nominated when you purchased your BDAG. The allocation contract will send your BDAG here ONLY.

I changed my Wallet after purchasing my BDAG

If this is the case and you did not effect a change with BlockDAG before TGE then you will not see your BDAG in the new wallet.

The easiest solution is to move your old crypto wallet to the new one, by either importing your secret recovery phrase (seed phrase) into the new wallet app/device or by transferring assets via blockchain transaction. Using the 12-24 word recovery phrase restores all your addresses and balances instantly.

Using Your Seed Phrase (Restore/Import)

This method makes the new wallet an exact replica of the old one.

Get your seed phrase: Locate the 12/18/24-word recovery phrase from your old wallet.
Open the new wallet: Install and open the new wallet app or device.
Select "Import": Choose the option "Import Wallet," "Restore," or "I already have a wallet".
Enter words: Carefully enter the phrase in the correct order.
Set PIN/Password: Create a new password for the new device.
Verify: Your funds should appear, as the new wallet is now authorized to manage your keys.

NEVER share your seed phrase with anyone, ever.
Ensure you are using the official wallet software.

My Base Wallet is not compatible with the BDAG Network

Base Wallet is a Smart Wallet and is not compatible with the BDAG Network. Our team is working on a solution for you to be able to claim your coins. We will update you as soon as that is done and tested.

How does the Vesting contract affect the tokens I can claim at TGE

The community overwhelmingly supported the application of a vesting contract which essentially means that where vesting is applied to your coins, your initial allocation will be 40% of your total coins with a further 20% made available to you each subsequent month for three months. So your initial allocation should be 40% of your total allocation.

Vesting schedules determine when tokens become liquid, when they can be traded, when they enter circulation. Get this wrong, and you create instability – sudden supply shocks that can crater value and punish long-term believers. Get this right, and you create a stable foundation for sustainable growth that rewards patience and aligns everyone's incentives toward the project's long-term success.

TAP Miner Points Conversion

The most important clarification is this:

Tap Miner points are not tokens.

They represent participation, engagement, and contribution. Points are converted into BDAG through a compression framework to ensure fairness and predictable settlement.
We use tiered compression bands. As point totals increase, the conversion ratio adjusts. This prevents concentration and protects smaller participants.
The bands are as follows:

0 – 10 million points: 200:1
10 million – 100 million points: 500:1
100 million – 1 billion points: 2,000:1 1 billion – 10 billion points: 5,000:1
10 billion – 50 billion points: 15,000:1

Above 50 billion points: capped at the average of the 10–50 billion band

This structure ensures three things:
Smaller users are not diluted by very large point balances
No single participant can dominate settlement
Total settlement supply remains within the presale utility allocation (Tokenomics)

Tap Miner Points have been converted to BDAG as per the above conversion bands and allocated at TGE.
Everything is on-chain and reflected in the dashboard.

The resulting Bonus BDAG allocation

Staking BDAG means locking your tokens on the BlockDAG mainnet to earn rewards from block emissions. Your BDAG stays locked while it is staked.

Step 1: Connect

Access the official staking dashboard:

https://staking.bdagscan.com/

Step 2: Commit

Lock your BDAG directly on the mainnet.

Step 3: Earn

Receive rewards derived from network block emissions.

Once active, your BDAG begins working immediately.

IMPORTANT: Currently staking is ONLY available using a Metamask Wallet

Why Stake?

Emission-Backed Rewards
Earn BDAG directly from protocol-level issuance.

Infrastructure Alignment
Support operational stability and ecosystem strength.

Long-Term Incentive Design
Structured to reward committed holders over short-term speculation

Direct On-Chain ParticipationNo custodians. No intermediaries. Native mainnet interaction.

When do I earn and claim staking rewards?

Rewards begin accumulating as soon as your stake becomes active.

However, rewards can only be claimed after 4 weeks of continuous active staking. If you unstake before completing 4 weeks, rewards will not be eligible for claim.

What happens when I unstake my BDAG and how long does it take?

When you request to unstake:

A 3-week cooldown begins
Your BDAG stays locked during cooldown
You still earn rewards until withdrawal
If you add more BDAG during cooldown, the timer resets

BDAG staking operates on 7-day epochs.
If you submit an un stake request during an active epoch:
You must wait until the current epoch completes before withdrawing principal and eligible rewards.
You continue earning rewards for the remainder of that epoch.
This epoch model ensures synchronized reward accounting, fairness across participants, and operational stability.
