Step-By-Step Guide

Click "Connect Wallet" and follow the on-screen prompts to create a new Omni account (portfolio) linked with your crypto wallet. During the initial setup on Variational Omni, you will be prompted to deposit funds. Please select "Skip for now" and follow the next step to claim an initial balance of Test USDC.

2. Claim Test USDC (TUSDC) from faucet

Test USDC (TUSDC) has no monetary value and is used only for trading on Omni testnet. To get started, access the faucet from the menu. Simply select your wallet address in the top right corner, choose "Test USDC Faucet" from the dropdown, and click the "Claim" button in the faucet dialog.
