Step 3: Visit RenBridge to exchange your tokens
Now for the fun part. You must convert your BTC to RenBTC if you would like to experience the different currencies that run on the Ethereum network. In order to do this we must "wrap" our bitcoin. This does not make you lose your BTC, rather it converts it into a "wrapped" token that is available for use on the Ethereum block chain. This is useful if you are looking to dive into the world of decentralized finance.
First go to https://bridge.renproject.io/ and connect your metamask account;
Then enter in the amount you would like to convert, you can find this balance back in your CashApp bitcoin screen;
Finally you'll click the next button to verify the transaction. After waiting a few minutes your RenBTC (A.k.a. "wrapped BTC") will be deposited into your metamask wallet; You can now start participating in all of the functions of Ethereum. If you would like to cash out your crypto, follow this same process backwards back into your CashApp account. Now go out there and earn!
