How to Sync Your Whales
1. Connect Your Wallet
Make sure your wallet is connected to the correct network for the shadow chain you want to sync to.
2. Select Shadow Chain
Choose the chain where you want to sync shadow tokens (Only Apechain for now). Each chain requires a separate sync.
3. Choose Sync Method
You have two options to sync your whales:
- Sync All: Use the "Sync All Un-synced Whales" button in the OG Whales list on the top left to sync all un-synced whales in your wallet at once.
- Sync Specific: Enter specific whale token IDs below to sync only selected whales.
4. Get Quote
Click "Get Quote" to see the estimated cost of syncing your whales. This will show you the required native token amount.
5. Sync Whales
If you're happy with the quote, click "Sync" to create shadow tokens on the selected chain. Make sure you have enough native tokens to cover the cost.
6. Verify Shadows
Once the transaction is confirmed, your shadows will appear within a few minutes. You can also verify the shadow transfer on the relevant block-explorer:
Note: Syncing triggers an ownership update for the shadow tokens. Each shadow token is linked to your original OG Whale. The shadows will show up in the same wallet as the OG Whale, unless delegation through delegate.xyz is configured. If delegation is used, the shadows will show up in your hot wallet.
