Getting started
From signing in to your first deposit.
1. Sign in#
Sign in with email, X, Telegram, Google or a Solana wallet such as Phantom. With a wallet you sign a message (Sign In With Solana): it is not a transaction and costs nothing. On your first sign-in DFM creates your app wallet, the wallet every fund operation runs from (see App wallet).
2. Add funds to your app wallet#
Open Portfolio → App wallet → Add funds. You need USDC to deposit and a little SOL for network fees and the temporary accounts a deposit opens (their rent comes back when the deposit closes). Three ways in:
- Send from a wallet you hold — the only time your own wallet signs.
- Buy with a card or from an exchange, straight to the app wallet address.
- Send to the app wallet address from anywhere: an exchange, a hardware wallet, a phone.
3. Pick a fund#
The Marketplace lists every live fund, ranked by TVL, with filters by sector (Fun, RWA, AI, Stocks, Gaming, DeFi). A fund’s page shows its basket and target weights, what it actually holds right now, its fees, its holders, its rebalance history and its creator.
4. Deposit#
Enter an amount in USDC and confirm. Your app wallet signs; no wallet popup opens. The deposit buys every token of the basket and then mints your shares — usually within a minute. Fund cards also have quick deposit buttons with preset amounts you can edit. Details: Depositing.
5. Follow it and exit when you want#
6. Or launch your own#
Launch a Fund takes a name, a basket and its weights. See Launching a fund.
