Minting Runes on Bitcoin using Xverse is a straightforward process. Here’s a step-by-step guide to help you mint Runes:

Step 1: Visit the Xverse Rune Minting Page

Go to Xverse Runes > Click on the ‘Connect’ button in the top left corner to connect your wallet.

Step 2: Choose a Rune to Mint

Browse the popular Runes displayed on the dashboard, or use the search field to find a specific Rune you want to mint. Make sure to input the full name of the Rune when using the search field; spaces will automatically be converted to dots.

Once you’ve selected a Rune, click on ‘Mint’ to start the process.

Step 3: Set Minting Order Details

  • Destination Address: By default, the connected Taproot address is automatically set as the receiving address. If you prefer to mint to a different address, simply input your desired destination address.
  • Repeat Mints: To mint multiple Runes at once, specify the number of mints you’d like to repeat.
  • Minting Fees: You can adjust the transaction fees based on how quickly you’d like your mint to be processed, depending on current network conditions.

Step 4: Submit and Sign the Transaction

After confirming your details, submit the mint request. You will need to sign the transaction and pay using Bitcoin from your payment address (starting with ‘3’).

Note: The payment will be taken from the active account you are currently logged into. Make sure you are using the correct account for the transaction.

Understanding the Minting Process with Xverse

After placing your minting order, the process takes place in two main steps:

      1. Payment Approval: Your payment is sent to a dedicated Bitcoin funding address created by Xverse specifically for minting.
      2. Rune Minting: As the payment transaction is broadcasted, the funding address will process your order and send the newly minted Runes to your wallet once the minting transaction is confirmed.

⚠️ Batch Minting: If you’re minting more than 23 times, the Runes will be delivered to your wallet in multiple transactions. Each transaction will contain the number of Runes specified in each batch of up to 23 mint operations, and this will continue until your entire order is fulfilled.

Step 5: Track Your Order

You can track the status of your mint order by scrolling to the bottom of the page. The status will be marked as “Complete” once all the minting transactions have been confirmed.

Important to note

  • A “Complete” status on your mint order does not ensure that all requested Runes were successfully minted.
  • If the Rune cap is reached before your minting transaction is broadcasted, the system will stop the minting process and automatically refund your payment.
  • However, if the Rune cap is reached after the minting transaction is broadcasted, the Runes will not be minted, and no refund will be issued, as the funds were already used in the mint attempt.
