1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:01,000 Okay. 2 00:00:01,000 --> 00:00:07,000 So now that we know what crypto exchanges are and how they can be used to convert one cryptocurrency 3 00:00:07,000 --> 00:00:11,000 to another and why you might want to do this. 4 00:00:11,000 --> 00:00:17,000 In this lecture, I'm going to give you an example of using a crypto exchange called Morph Token. 5 00:00:18,000 --> 00:00:26,000 Most of these exchanges are very similar anyway, so this will give you a good idea on how to use any 6 00:00:26,000 --> 00:00:27,000 crypto exchange. 7 00:00:27,000 --> 00:00:27,000 Really? 8 00:00:29,000 --> 00:00:29,000 Anyway. 9 00:00:29,000 --> 00:00:34,000 In general, these websites use very intuitive and easy to use interfaces. 10 00:00:35,000 --> 00:00:41,000 So for this one, right here on the left, you have to specify the deposit currency. 11 00:00:41,000 --> 00:00:44,000 So as you know, we want to transfer from Bitcoin. 12 00:00:44,000 --> 00:00:49,000 So if you're depositing another a different type of coin, you can pick it from here. 13 00:00:49,000 --> 00:00:55,000 But I'm leaving it at Bitcoin because we want to actually deposit Bitcoin and we want to transfer that. 14 00:00:55,000 --> 00:00:57,000 We want to receive Monero. 15 00:00:57,000 --> 00:01:03,000 Again, if you want to convert your bitcoins to another coin, all you have to do is click in here and 16 00:01:03,000 --> 00:01:04,000 select the other coin. 17 00:01:05,000 --> 00:01:11,000 Next, you want to specify the amount of deposit, the amount of bitcoins that you want to convert to 18 00:01:11,000 --> 00:01:13,000 Monero or to the destination currency. 19 00:01:13,000 --> 00:01:19,000 Now for this website, the minimum amount that you can convert is five micro bitcoins. 20 00:01:19,000 --> 00:01:22,000 So 0.005. 21 00:01:22,000 --> 00:01:28,000 You should read the frequently asked questions of whatever service you're using to make sure that you 22 00:01:28,000 --> 00:01:30,000 send more than the minimum amount. 23 00:01:30,000 --> 00:01:36,000 Because sometimes if you send less than the minimum amount, it will be considered as a donation. 24 00:01:36,000 --> 00:01:39,000 So this is similar to what happens with Bitcoin mixers. 25 00:01:40,000 --> 00:01:45,000 Now if we go down into my wallet, I have my electron wallet right here, my Bitcoin wallet, you can 26 00:01:45,000 --> 00:01:49,000 see that my balance is 5.6 micro bitcoins. 27 00:01:49,000 --> 00:01:52,000 So this is 0.0056. 28 00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:57,000 You divide this value by 1000 to convert it from micro bitcoins to bitcoins. 29 00:01:57,000 --> 00:02:00,000 So I have more than the minimum amount. 30 00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:01,000 So that's fine. 31 00:02:01,000 --> 00:02:04,000 So I'm going to set this to the minimum amount. 32 00:02:04,000 --> 00:02:07,000 Now remember, like I said, this is in bitcoins, not in micro bitcoins. 33 00:02:07,000 --> 00:02:17,000 So 5.6 micro bitcoins will be equal to 0.0056 bitcoins. 34 00:02:17,000 --> 00:02:20,000 Now, we actually don't want to send all of this. 35 00:02:20,000 --> 00:02:22,000 I'm just going to send five micro bitcoins. 36 00:02:22,000 --> 00:02:28,000 So it's 0.005 they receive is already set to Monero, so we're good to go. 37 00:02:28,000 --> 00:02:36,000 You can also use the weight in here if you want to convert the deposit coin to a number of different 38 00:02:36,000 --> 00:02:40,000 cryptocurrencies so you can click on the plus and here to add more entries. 39 00:02:40,000 --> 00:02:47,000 And when you do that, for example, in this case, 50% of my bitcoins will be converted to Monero and 40 00:02:47,000 --> 00:02:52,000 50% will be converted to Ethereum, which is another cryptocurrency. 41 00:02:52,000 --> 00:02:58,000 And you can keep clicking on the plus and split your bitcoins into a number of different cryptocurrencies 42 00:02:58,000 --> 00:02:59,000 if you want. 43 00:02:59,000 --> 00:03:04,000 Now, in my case, I want to keep everything for Monero, so I'm going to click on the minus here and 44 00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:08,000 we're going to click on Morph to start the process. 45 00:03:09,000 --> 00:03:13,000 And the next page, it's asking us for the refund address. 46 00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:17,000 This is the address of the wallet that will send the funds. 47 00:03:17,000 --> 00:03:23,000 As the name suggests, the only reason you need this in case something goes wrong, the money will not 48 00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:24,000 be lost. 49 00:03:24,000 --> 00:03:29,000 It will be sent back to the wallet that it came from or to the address that you specify in here. 50 00:03:29,000 --> 00:03:35,000 So I'm going to go down and this is the wallet that will send the money, and I'm going to set it as 51 00:03:35,000 --> 00:03:37,000 the refund wallet. 52 00:03:37,000 --> 00:03:42,000 So I'm going to click on Receive as usual, copy its address and paste it here. 53 00:03:43,000 --> 00:03:44,000 That's done. 54 00:03:44,000 --> 00:03:51,000 The next step is to give the address of our Monero wallet, which will receive our Bitcoin coins after 55 00:03:51,000 --> 00:03:54,000 being converted to Monero or XMR. 56 00:03:55,000 --> 00:03:59,000 So again, we're going to go down and this is my Monero wallet. 57 00:03:59,000 --> 00:04:03,000 You'll notice that using these wallets is actually very, very similar. 58 00:04:03,000 --> 00:04:06,000 If you want to receive money, you click on Receive. 59 00:04:06,000 --> 00:04:08,000 Similar to what we do with Electron. 60 00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:12,000 Now, in your case, you'll probably only have one address in here. 61 00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:13,000 The primary address. 62 00:04:13,000 --> 00:04:19,000 I have two other addresses here because I created them manually and it's actually a very good idea to 63 00:04:19,000 --> 00:04:23,000 always create new addresses for every transaction you make. 64 00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:25,000 Therefore, this is a new transaction. 65 00:04:25,000 --> 00:04:28,000 I'm going to click on Create a new address. 66 00:04:28,000 --> 00:04:34,000 You can set any label for this, so I'm going to call it Test three and I'm going to click on okay. 67 00:04:35,000 --> 00:04:39,000 And now when I click on this, you'll see that the QR image changed. 68 00:04:39,000 --> 00:04:43,000 This is the QR image for address three for this wallet. 69 00:04:43,000 --> 00:04:49,000 And I can click on this icon right here to copy this address to my clipboard. 70 00:04:49,000 --> 00:04:53,000 As you can see in here, it's saying the address is added to the clipboard. 71 00:04:53,000 --> 00:04:59,000 And I'm going to go back to my website and I'm going to paste it here so that this will be the address 72 00:04:59,000 --> 00:05:05,000 that will receive the coins after they're converted to Monero or XMR. 73 00:05:06,000 --> 00:05:11,000 Once we're happy with setting the refund address and the receiving address, I'm going to click on start 74 00:05:11,000 --> 00:05:12,000 to start the process. 75 00:05:13,000 --> 00:05:14,000 And perfect. 76 00:05:14,000 --> 00:05:16,000 Now the process has started. 77 00:05:16,000 --> 00:05:18,000 We have our ID right here. 78 00:05:18,000 --> 00:05:23,000 If you go down again, you can see it's telling you what's the minimum amount that you can transfer. 79 00:05:23,000 --> 00:05:24,000 It's 0.005. 80 00:05:24,000 --> 00:05:26,000 This is what we picked anyway. 81 00:05:26,000 --> 00:05:27,000 So that's fine. 82 00:05:27,000 --> 00:05:34,000 And then it's given us the address of the wallet of this website, so we should transfer our coins to 83 00:05:34,000 --> 00:05:36,000 the address that we have in here. 84 00:05:36,000 --> 00:05:43,000 This website will convert our bitcoins to Monero and then transfer it to the address that we gave as 85 00:05:43,000 --> 00:05:47,000 the receiving address, which is the address of this wallet. 86 00:05:47,000 --> 00:05:51,000 So right now I need to go to the wallet that I'm sending money from. 87 00:05:51,000 --> 00:05:54,000 I'm going to go to the send tab, as we've seen before. 88 00:05:54,000 --> 00:06:00,000 We're going to set the pay to address to the address that we got from here, the address of the wallet 89 00:06:00,000 --> 00:06:01,000 of this website. 90 00:06:02,000 --> 00:06:05,000 You can set a description for this, but I'm going to leave it blank. 91 00:06:05,000 --> 00:06:06,000 That's fine. 92 00:06:06,000 --> 00:06:09,000 The amount we're going to set that to five. 93 00:06:09,000 --> 00:06:11,000 Remember, this is in micro bitcoin. 94 00:06:11,000 --> 00:06:17,000 So it's equal to 0.005, which is what we picked in here when we initiated the process. 95 00:06:18,000 --> 00:06:24,000 I'm going to keep the fees as they are and I'm going to click on send to send the bitcoins. 96 00:06:25,000 --> 00:06:27,000 I'm going to put my password. 97 00:06:28,000 --> 00:06:29,000 And perfect. 98 00:06:29,000 --> 00:06:31,000 Now the payment is sent. 99 00:06:31,000 --> 00:06:35,000 And if we look in our history tab, you can see that it sent. 100 00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:36,000 It's still unconfirmed. 101 00:06:36,000 --> 00:06:39,000 So you want to wait for this as usual. 102 00:06:39,000 --> 00:06:48,000 And if we go to the website, you can see that it's waiting for confirmation, but it received my 0.005 103 00:06:48,000 --> 00:06:49,000 bitcoins. 104 00:06:49,000 --> 00:06:56,000 So all we need to do right now is literally wait for these guys to receive my bitcoins, convert them 105 00:06:56,000 --> 00:07:01,000 to Monero, and then they will transfer it to my Monero wallet right here. 106 00:07:03,000 --> 00:07:03,000 Now. 107 00:07:03,000 --> 00:07:09,000 I've actually paused the video for a bit, and right now, as you can see, I received the funds in 108 00:07:09,000 --> 00:07:10,000 my Monero wallet. 109 00:07:10,000 --> 00:07:17,000 If you click on account, you should see the amount that you transferred in here in your wallet. 110 00:07:17,000 --> 00:07:21,000 And as you can see right now, this is in Exmor in one arrow. 111 00:07:21,000 --> 00:07:27,000 So we basically converted our coins from Bitcoin to Monero. 112 00:07:27,000 --> 00:07:33,000 XMR And like I said, once we do this, we basically broken the link between all of the previous transactions 113 00:07:33,000 --> 00:07:35,000 and the coins in this wallet. 114 00:07:35,000 --> 00:07:41,000 So right now if I go ahead and use the coins in this wallet for anything, it will be untraceable and 115 00:07:41,000 --> 00:07:47,000 unthinkable to the Bitcoin wallet that sent the money to this wallet right here. 116 00:07:47,000 --> 00:07:53,000 So even if the Bitcoin wallet was linked to my identity or compromised, it's still safe to use this 117 00:07:53,000 --> 00:08:01,000 wallet in here because it is not linked to the previous wallet and therefore it's not linked to my real 118 00:08:01,000 --> 00:08:02,000 identity.
