APEX works on the xDAI chain, meaning that you will need to interact with the xDai network to create a smart wallet and orders. You will need xDai to create your smart wallet and xDai USDC to fund them.

In order to do this we will discuss:

  1. Setting up xDAI to interact with APEX

  2. Acquiring xDai to pay for transaction fees

  3. Creating a smart wallet

  4. Funding your smart wallet with USDC

  5. Creating orders
