Getting $PTG on the Polygon network.

Crypto Colosseum is built on Polygon, a L2 commitchain of Ethereum. The in-game currency is Prestige ($PTG). Playing Crypto Colosseum does not require you to buy $PTG nor have $MATIC on the network (we use gasless transactions), but if you'd like to buy $PTG here's how. The app will offer you either a Torus wallet or Metamask when you sign up (it says 'Traditional Login' or 'Web3 login'). Either choice is fine and similar from here on out.

Notes#

You may have noticed your game wallet has a different address than your Metamask/Torus wallet. That's because we deploy what's called a smart contract wallet for you that lets you use the game without having to pay for gas (but everything is still fully in your control).

Already have a Polygon wallet and tokens on Polygon?#

Easy peasy. Swap here: https://app.slingshot.finance/trade/m/WPTG/MATIC and send the WPTG to your game wallet. You can also swap directly in the game wallet with several tokens (click 'Get more PTG').

Have tokens on Ethereum?#

You can easily move value from Ethereum -> Polygon using Hyphen or the official Polygon Bridge. If you need a little $MATIC to move things around there is a faucet available which will give you enough to make a couple of transactions.

Have crypto on a centralized exchange?#

If you have any crypto in a centralized exchange then Hippodrome makes it easy to get $PTG. The simplest thing is to is to click 'Get more PTG' and then follow the link to Hippodrome.

Are you an advanced DeFi User?#

You can actually get $PTG for free using QiDAO. The basic idea is to open a vault with your crypto, take a negative interest loan and turn that into $PTG.

Completely new?#

Here are some exchanges that offer withdrawal to the Polygon network.

You can also buy using cards/bank accounts:

We hear Coinbase support is coming soon. In the meantime, you can use the "Hippodrome" technique above.
