When you have completed these three steps, your screen should look similar to this:
And now we’re getting to the interesting part, which will allow you to experience the basic functions powered by DOP.
Step 5 — Encrypt Assets
In this step, you will use DOP to encrypt assets, so they will no longer be visible on the blockchain.
6. On the Transaction Summary screen, click Confirm to confirm the transaction.
7. You’ll also need to confirm the transaction in Metamask.
8. If the transaction is completed successfully, a notification will appear to let you know that the assets were encrypted successfully.
9. To see what the transaction looks like on the Sepolia blockchain (in this case), click on View in Explorer.
10. To finish, click Close. A popup will appear to let you know you have completed the task successfully. Click OKAY to dismiss it.
The assets you’ve selected in step 5 are now encrypted. If you want to see which encrypted assets you have, click on Encrypted Tokens under Account in the upper left menu.
Step 6 — Send Assets
In the Step 6 — Send Assets tile, click on Get Started to go to the Send screen. Then follow the steps below to send encrypted assets to another DOP wallet.
5. To Send the encrypted assets, click the Send button.
6. Confirm the transaction in the Transaction Summary pane that appears.
7. Confirm the transaction in your Metamask wallet.
8. The transaction should complete within a few seconds.
That’s it! Your funds are on their way to the destination address. Dismiss the two popups that are displayed to continue to the next step.
Step 7 — Decrypt Assets
The following popup appears:
Share your unique referral link with at least 3 friends, and click Done.
At the bottom of the Step 8 — Invite 3 Friends box, you will now be able to see if 3 of the friends you had invited have joined.
Once 3 friends join through your unique link, you will be eligible to receive your DOP reward after the official token launch in early 2024. Your Progress at the top of the screen will change to 100%.
Mind that for each additional person you refer (up to a maximum of 100) who completes all the testnet steps you will receive a 20% bonus. In other words, you can earn up to 2000% more in DOP token rewards!
At the top-right of your dashboard, under Invite & Earn, you can see how many people have joined through your referral link (starting from the 4th person) and completed the testnet, and also the percentage of the bonus rewards you’re entitled to.
If you want, you can use the navigation bar options on the upper left side of the screen to encrypt, send, and decrypt tokens again. However, these actions will not be counted towards any additional rewards.
If you’d like to share your feedback with us, please send an email to support@dop.org.
Thank you for helping us test and improve DOP!
As a reminder, this is just the testnet, and what you’ve experienced is just the basic features of Phase 1. The official release of DOP will include many more features and options.
