You can add ETH and USDC to your Ethereum wallet by purchasing them on an exchange, and then sending them to your wallet. Any exchange can send currency directly to your wallet address.

To send messages on Tela, you will need:

  1. A USDC balance to purchase Tela credits
  2. An ETH balance to allow USDC transfers

Let's look at MetaMask.

The main view of your ETH wallet

Under "Account 1", you can click once to copy your ETH address. You can take this to an exchange like Coinbase, purchase ETH, and have it sent to your wallet.

You can also click the "Buy" button and purchase directly within MetaMask using services like Moonpay and Transak.

Once you have purchased a small amount of ETH, repeat the process for USDC in order to purchase Tela credits.
