Here is a step-by-step guide on how to mint your crypto cackles NFT, or really any NFT on the Ethereum Blockchain.
The mint price is .101 ETH. 1 cackle = .101 ETH.
You will need the following three things to mint a crypto cackles NFT:
An Ethereum wallet (e.g. MetaMask).
You will want to add more than .101 ETH into a wallet, this is to cover the gas fees on the Ethereum Blockchain We would recommend having at least .105 ETH in your Ethereum wallet.

There are a couple different ways to buy Ethereum. We’ll break them down here:
OPTION 1: The easiest way to purchase ETH and be ready for mint is to purchase ETH via the MetaMask wallet and MoonPay.
Here are the steps:
Download MetaMask (our preferred Ethereum wallet)
Install the MetaMask extension in Chrome (or any Chromium-based browser such as Brave or Vivaldi) and complete the onboarding setup. It’s helpful to pin the MetaMask extension to your extensions bar in the browser so you have easy access.
As a side note, you may also want to download and install the MetaMask app on your phone (available on iOS and Android) as it could come in handy later.
3. IMPORTANT: Save your Recovery/Seed Phrase in multiple safe places — both analog and digitally. Write it down on a piece of paper. Your Recovery/Seed Phrase is the only thing that can recover access to your wallet should you need it.
Once your wallet is setup, it should look like this from the main wallet screen.
Now go to MoonPay and buy at least .105 ETH to mint 1 crypto cackle. Since you have already installed the MetaMask wallet the MoonPay site will recognize that and connect to your wallet (meaning it will automatically input the correct wallet address — very nifty!).
2. Complete the payment onboarding process and finalize sending your payment to MoonPay.
3. Now when you look at your MetaMask wallet it will have funds in it (it may take a few minutes to appear).
4. Congratulations! Your ETH will now be available in your MetaMask Wallet.
Side note: if you have difficulty with this, fear not! We have another solution for you.
OPTION 2: Buy ETH from a crypto exchange. We recommend Coinbase.
Create a Coinbase account (or exchange of choice) and complete onboarding. If you use our link we both get $10!
For Coinbase, click the blue “Buy” button. This will be at the bottom of the mobile app or the top of the desktop app.
Select “Buy crypto with cash”
Search and select “Ethereum”
Click the arrow switch button to change the amount to ETH.
Input at least .105 ETH (If you want to purchase more than 1 crypto cackle, be sure to buy the appropriate amount of ETH. Remember 1 crypto cackle = .101 ETH)
Choose your purchase frequency. (Default is a one-time purchase).
Click “Preview Buy”
Click “Buy Now”
If you purchased ETH using Moonpay, the ETH will be available in your MetaMask wallet shortly thereafter. If you purchased ETH via an exchange (e.g Coinbase), you will have to transfer your ETH to your MetaMask wallet. Here’s how:
In the MetaMask wallet, click/tap on your wallet address at the top of the app to copy it to your clipboard (it should look like a long string of characters e.g. 0x58851aB52b26316eC32812ceaD784631FAa973C5)
Next, open the crypto exchange where you bought ETH and Click Pay or Send depending on the exchange.
Paste your MetaMask wallet address into the exchange field that says “Send to” or “Receiver”
Finally, complete the transaction. It may take a few minutes for the transaction and funds to show up in your MetaMask wallet.
