Step 2: Set up an intermediary wallet (optional)

If your main wallet holding FIL has an address starting with "f1":

If your main wallet holding FIL has an address starting with "f410" or "0x":

  • You will need to use an intermediary wallet such as a FilSnap wallet, burner wallet, or Ledger. Check out the step-by-step guide for creating your intermediary wallet by clicking the link.

  • This is because some exchanges, including MEXC, do not support deposit from "f410" or "0x" addresses. Check this page for more details.

Once done, your intermediary wallet’s address, starting with ‘f1’, will be visible in the top right dropdown. Copy this address.

  2. In the top right corner of GLIF website, click "Send / Forward FIL" .

  2. Enter the amount of FIL you wish to transfer (start with a small test amount)

  3. Click "Send"

Please ensure you have sufficient FIL for gas fees; 0.001 FIL is usually more than enough.

  1. Click "Confirm" in your main wallet.

  2. After the transaction completed, you can check the balance of your intermediary wallet in the "Wallet" tab in GLIF.
