Explore Ideamarket on any device, but the best experience for participating happens on Desktop, with the Metamask browser extension. (If you don't have Metamask yet, get it here. Setting up a wallet is easy and should take less than 5 minutes. Written tutorial here. Video tutorial here.)

Step 1

Visit Chainlist.org and find "Arbitrum One."

Click "Connect Wallet" and sign the transaction.

Then click "Add to Metamask" and sign that transaction.

Step 2

Use hop.exchange to transfer ETH from Mainnet (or Polygon, Optimism, etc.) to Arbitrum. Transfers are inexpensive and near-instant.

All set!

What should I do first?

  1. Set up your profile with username, photo, and bio (please use something recognizable so people know it’s you). This won't cost any gas fees!

  2. Connect Twitter (just a sign-in, no tweet needed)

  3. Rate 5-10 posts that interest you.

  4. Start making your own posts and sharing them with friends

Let us know on Discord or Twitter if you get stuck at any point, and of course let us know what you think!

Troubleshooting

If you see this screen...

...simply switch Metamask to "Arbitrum network":
