Collateralize
You may begin transferring your $DAG or $DOR tokens to your newly imported wallet.
🚧 Proceed with caution
Start by sending a small test amount to ensure the transfer is successful before committing to a full transfer.
You can continue with multiple transfers or a single lump-sum transfer after the test is confirmed. There should be no fees associated with these transfers.
