Follow these simple steps to purchase and use TPC Tokens.
Everything you need to go from wallet prep to a confirmed, silver-backed TPC position in six moves.
Before continuing, install MetaMask on your browser or mobile device. If you’re using mobile, be sure to access the site through MetaMask’s built-in browser.
Add ETH using your preferred payment method or exchange so you can cover both the TPC purchase and network gas fees. Make sure funds arrive on Ethereum mainnet.
Head to the TPC Silver app, connect your wallet, and confirm you are on Ethereum mainnet so pricing and balances load correctly.
Enter how many TPC Tokens you want to mint. Review the estimated silver backing and check you have enough balance for the purchase.
Confirm the live silver spot price, the premium, and the backing per token. Verify vault details before signing.
Sign the transaction in your wallet. Once confirmed, if you don’t see the TPC token, add the token contract to your wallet to view and monitor your holdings.

Bitcoin support notes: BTC and ETH accounts stay separate; BTC cannot pay Ethereum gas. Minting TPC requires ETH on Ethereum mainnet.
ETH is required to interact with the minting contract and pay gas. Start with the simplest path:
Option A (recommended): Purchase ETH directly in MetaMask
Option B: Convert existing BTC to ETH
Reminder: Always receive ETH on Ethereum mainnet so it can cover gas and the mint.
Official portal: Access the minting site at mint.tpc-silver.com and verify the URL before connecting.
Connect MetaMask:
Minting ratio: 100 TPC = 1 silver coin (e.g., 100 TPC ? 1 coin; 1,000 TPC ? 10 coins).
Minting procedure:
Post-mint verification: The transaction is on-chain and TPC tokens land in the connected wallet. If the token does not appear automatically, add it manually using the official contract address.
