4. Enter the destination address.
5. Select Destination Chain (which will be main).

After clicking Settings you’ll be brought to this screen. On this screen you’ll see 5 different fields:

• Currency (Can be changed to display USD/EUR/CAD/GBP/JPY/AUD)

Changing Phantasma Name

Phantom Wallet has this cool little feature where instead of using your Public Address to receive tokens, you can give it a name to make it easier to remember. To do this, look towards the left hand side of your screen over towards the menu.

• Under where it says “Wallet Connected” you’ll find the word “anonymous”. Currently, “anonymous” is what all new wallet addresses will be called until you rename it (make sure you have same KCAL at the ready!).
• To rename it, there will be an edit logo to the right of “anonymous”. Click on that which will bring up a small dialog box where it will allow you to type in a new name (NOTE: IT MUST BE LOWER CASE AND YOU CAN ONLY DO THIS ONCE).
• Once done, click ‘confirm’. Congratulations! You have now named your Phantasma address.
