INSTALLATION
Tighten in sequence. Do not overtighten.
-
01
FIT A WALLET
Install Phantom or Solflare. Write the seed phrase on something that cannot be lost, then lose the copy that can.
TORQUE 1.2 N·m -
02
LOAD SOL
Send SOL from any exchange to your wallet address. Leave a little behind for fees. Leaving a little behind is the whole point.
TORQUE 1.8 N·m -
03
OPEN THE LISTING
Go to pump.fun and paste the contract address from the top of this page. Confirm the ticker reads $OPTIONAL before anything else.
TORQUE 2.4 N·m -
04
SWAP AND HOLD
Set the amount, approve the transaction, and keep it. You will not be told what it is for. That has never stopped anyone.
TORQUE FINAL
Sequence 01 → 03 → 02 → 04 is also acceptable. Nothing has ever come loose.
§05
