# ⚡How to Mint

## How to Mint Tokenized Assets

Minting your tokenized real-world assets on **Cassowary** is designed to be a seamless, one-click experience. You don't need to register, pass KYC, or wait for approvals.

### The Minting Process

1. **Access the Platform:** Visit our official website cassowary.pro
2. **Locate the Minting Widget:** On the main page, you will find our secure minting interface, powered by **Thirdweb** infrastructure.
3. **Enter the Amount:** Input the amount you wish to invest.
4. **Select Your Payment Method:** You can mint tokens using **any cryptocurrency from any network** (Ethereum, Polygon, Base, etc.). The widget will automatically handle the cross-chain bridging and swapping for you.
5. **Authorize & Confirm:** Follow the prompts in your Web3 wallet to authorize the payment to Thirdweb (the widget provider) and confirm the transaction.

*Once the transaction is confirmed on the blockchain, our decentralized backend will instantly calculate the live price and send the tokenized assets directly to your wallet.*

### The Minting Widget

When you access our platform, you will see our secure minting interface powered by Thirdweb. The process is simple:

> Your tokenized SpaceX tokens will be automatically sent to your wallet. You may need to import them to view them. 💬 **Need assistance or have a large OTC order? DM us on X.**

### Step-by-Step Guide

1. **Connect your Wallet:** Click the connect button on the widget and link your Web3 wallet (MetaMask, TrustWallet, Coinbase Wallet, etc.).
2. **Select your Payment Method:** Choose the cryptocurrency and network you want to pay with. The widget will automatically handle any cross-chain bridging and swapping for you.
3. **Enter the Amount:** Input the amount you wish to invest (Remember the $10 minimum to avoid network routing errors).
4. **Authorize & Confirm:** Follow the prompts in your Web3 wallet. You will first need to authorize the payment to Thirdweb, and then confirm the final transaction.

*Once the transaction is confirmed on the blockchain, our decentralized backend will instantly calculate the live price and send the tokenized assets directly to your wallet.*

### ⚠️ Important: Minimum Recommended Investment

While our protocol is permissionless, **we strongly recommend a minimum investment of $10**.

Because the widget uses decentralized exchanges to swap your cryptocurrency into USDC behind the scenes, micro-transactions (e.g., $1 or $2) can suffer from high slippage and network routing errors, causing the visual interface to fail. Investing $10 or more ensures a smooth, error-free transaction.
