🕸️Installing the Extension

At the backbone of our platform is the Bandwidth AI browser extension. To start with our DePIN services and earn $BPS rewards, one has to install this browser extension. In the initial period after the launch of our ecosystem and the $BPS token, our browser extension will not be downloadable in the official Chromestore. As such, users need to install the chrome extension manually, through steps below. Alternatively to the guide below, investors can watch a tutorial video in the Dashboard on how to download and install our extension. We aim to integrate the extension into the Chromestore in the weeks after launch. 1. Download & Install Extension To get started, simply head over to our website and click dApp. This link brings you to our official dashboard, in which you get a first glance of our platform! From this screen, select 'download' indicated by the arrow below. This prompts the download of a Zip file, which contains our browser extension. After the browser extension is downloaded, navigate to chrome://extensions for Chrome usersd. Unpack the ZIP you just downloaded in a new folder on your drive, click 'Load Unpacked' as indicated by the arrow below and select the folder you just unzipped. The Bandwidth AI extension should now show up in your Chrome browser and should look like the below screenshot. Simply click 'Reconnect' to start connecting to Bandwidth AI. 2. Connect Your Wallet After downloading and installing the Bandwidth AI extension, users should go back to the Dashboard, where they are asked to connect their wallet. This wallet is used as your 'login' credentials and will be the wallet receiving the periodic rewards. After logging into the platform, users can confirm they have started earning rewards by referring to the arrow below. 3. Start Earning Now that you have the browser extension installed and your account is set up, you can start using the platform and earn rewards. A detailed overview of our platform, how to earn and how to view/monitor your rewards, is detailed in the 'Navigating the Platform' chapter of this whitepaper.
