Start here! If this is your first time using HeadsTails, you likely fall into one of these groups (see below👇).
If you are experienced with Crypto, BUSD, wallets, and exchanges, then skip this overview and go to Connect Your Wallet.
What is BUSD? BUSD is a stablecoin that is pegged to the US dollar. You can always redeem 1 BUSD for US $1.00, giving it a stable price
A. You do not have any Crypto.
If you are new to Crypto, don't worry, we will help you get started. In order to start participating on HeadsTails, you have to first create an account, and then fund your wallet with BUSD.
Creating a Wallet You will need a wallet (Trust Wallet or MetaMask). We prefer MetaMask but the platform supports both of these wallets. Follow this guide to create a MetaMask desktop or mobile wallet.
Buying BUSD The currency used on HeadsTails is BUSD tokens. You will also need BNB for paying gas fees. The easiest way to get BUSD & BNB, if you don't already have any Cryptocurrency is to buy it directly on Binance.com with a credit card or bank account. Go here for a step-by-step walkthrough if you use Binance. If you want to use another exchange, see Acquire BUSD
Funding your Wallet Now that you have BUSD in your Binance.com account, you can easily transfer it to your MetaMask wallet using the BEP20 network. Go here for a step-by-step walkthrough for Binance.

Once connected, start by browsing interesting questions on the Explore page or go toParticipate in a Question for a step-by-step walkthrough for participating in questions.
B. You have Crypto, but not BUSD.
If you are somewhat familiar with Crypto and have some in a wallet or exchange, then you're ready to get started. You'll have to convert some crypto to BUSD first.
Converting to BUSD The currency used on HeadsTails is BUSD tokens. So first you need to "swap" some of your existing Crypto for BUSD. Exchanges like Binance and Kucoin make it easy to convert BTC or ETH and just about any token you might own into BUSD. Wallets like Metamask also let you convert one token to another.
Funding your Wallet Once you've converted some existing Crypto to BUSD, you're ready to fund your MetaMask wallet. If you do not have a MetaMask wallet, follow this guide to create a MetaMask desktop or mobile wallet. We recommend using Binance.com for sending BUSD via the BEP20 network to your MetaMask wallet because it's fast and very cheap in terms of gas fees. If your exchange supports sending BUSD via BEP20, then convert some of your Crypto to BUSD and send it to your MetaMask wallet. Otherwise, create a free Binance.com account, then send your crypto to Binance, convert it to BUSD and finally send BUSD via the BEP20 network to your MetaMask wallet. Now you can start taking part in questions.
