Welcome,

In this guide we’ll walk you through the step-by-step process of buying USDh on both Stacks and Runes. It’s quite straight forward, let’s dive in:

Stacks

The most efficient way to purchase large amounts of USDh is:

1. Bridge USDC into Stacks via Allbridge to receive aeUSDC

   • Open the Allbridge Classic App

   • Choose your originating blockchain under the "From" section

   • Select Stacks as the destination blockchain under the "To" section

   • Select USDC under “Choose asset”

   • Click "Connect wallet" to link your preferred wallet for the originating blockchain

   • Enter your Stacks destination address and the amount of USDC you wish to bridge

   • Click "Send" to initiate the transfer

   • Connect your Stacks wallet

   • Click "Receive money" to complete the transfer

2. Swap aeUSDC for USDh on Velar or Bitflow

   • Open the Velar or Bitflow app

   • Click the button in the top-right corner to connect your Stacks wallet

   • Choose aeUSDC as the currency under the "From" section

   • Select USDh as the currency under the "To" section

   • Enter the amount of USDh you want to purchase

   • Click "Swap" and confirm the transaction

If you already hold STX assets and prefer to use them, the best approach is to leverage Bitflow’s aggregator to find the most cost-effective route for your swap.

You have two options for accessing Bitflow’s aggregator:

1. Use the "Buy" feature on our app at app.hermetica.fi/buy, which integrates Bitflow’s aggregator under the hood

2. Use Bitflow’s app directly
