  • Add MegaETH network with one click
  • Bridge assets from Ethereum mainnet or supported L2s
  • Execute your first swap in under 10 milliseconds

What You'll Need

Before using MegaFi, prepare the following:

Wallet: Any EVM-compatible wallet. MetaMask, Rainbow, WalletConnect, or Coinbase Wallet all work seamlessly with MegaFi.

MegaETH Network: Add the MegaETH network to your wallet. This takes under 30 seconds using our automatic setup.

Assets on MegaETH: Bridge tokens from Ethereum mainnet or other chains to MegaETH. Native bridging takes 5-15 minutes depending on source chain.

Gas Tokens: Keep a small amount of $MEGA tokens for gas. Transaction costs average under $0.005, so even $1 worth provides hundreds of transactions.

Setup Steps

1. Connect Your Wallet

Visit megafi.app and click "Connect Wallet". Select your wallet provider from the list. Approve the connection request in your wallet.

2. Add MegaETH Network

After connecting, MegaFi will prompt you to add the MegaETH network if it's not already configured. Click "Add Network" and approve in your wallet. The network configuration is added automatically.

3. Bridge Assets

Click "Bridge" in the top navigation. Select your source chain (Ethereum, Arbitrum, Base, or Optimism) and the token you want to bridge. Enter the amount and confirm. Assets arrive on MegaETH in 5-15 minutes.

4. Make Your First Swap

Navigate to "Swap". Select the tokens you want to trade. Enter the amount. Review the quote (zero price impact on most pairs). Click "Swap" and confirm. Transaction completes in under 50 milliseconds.

Quick Actions

Once set up, you can immediately:

Swap Tokens: Trade any supported token pair with instant execution and minimal slippage.

Provide Liquidity: Deposit tokens into Pools to earn trading fees. Choose your Tick for custom capital efficiency.

Deploy Strategies: Activate automated Strategy Modes that rebalance your liquidity positions continuously.

Hedge Positions: Open options positions through Hedge to protect against price movements.

Performance Expectations

MegaFi on MegaETH delivers performance unmatched by any other DeFi platform:

  • Transaction Speed: 10-50ms from submission to finality
  • Gas Costs: $0.001-$0.005 per transaction
  • Slippage: < 0.05% on most pairs
  • Uptime: > 99.99%
  • Execution Jitter: ± 3ms

These metrics are possible because MegaETH processes transactions continuously rather than batching them into blocks.

Interfaces

MegaFi provides three ways to interact with the protocol:

Web Application: Full-featured interface at megafi.app. Works on desktop and mobile browsers.

Smart Contracts: Direct contract interaction for advanced users and protocols. ABIs and addresses documented in technical section.

Common First-Time Questions

Why do I need to add a network?
MegaETH is a separate Layer 2 chain. Your wallet needs the network configuration to connect.

How long does bridging take?
5-15 minutes from Ethereum mainnet, 3-8 minutes from other L2s. The bridge ensures secure asset transfer.

What's the minimum I need to start?
No minimum deposit or balance required. Even $10 worth of tokens is enough to begin swapping and exploring features.

Are my funds at risk?
All DeFi protocols involve risk. MegaFi smart contracts are in development and have not yet been audited. Current deployments are for testing purposes only. Users should understand DeFi risks before depositing funds.

Next Steps

After completing setup:

  1. Try a small swap to experience the interface
  2. Trade options to protect positions or generate yield
  3. Provide liquidity to earn fees
  4. Explore Strategy Modes for automation
