1.  Withdraw ETH from [OKEX](https://www.okx.com/join/10125079) in Arbitrum (3.5 times lower commission than on Binance)
    
2.  Logging on [1inch](https://app.1inch.io/#/42161/simple/swap/ETH/STG) change our ETH to STG (0.5 STG for example). Then change our ETH for ~6 USDC.
    
3.  Go to [Stargate](https://stargate.finance/stake/ARBITRUM), connect our wallet. In the **"Select Amount"** - put our STG, in the **"Stake Duration"** put any value (I put 6 months). Click on the bottom of **"Create a Stake"**. Additionally, you [can transfer](https://stargate.finance/transfer) (from Arbitrum to Optimism for example, send a minimum of ETH. Expense ~ $ 1.2).
    
4.  Go to the [pool of ETH](https://stargate.finance/pool/ETH-ARBITRUM/add), put any minimum value (from 0.00001 to 0.0002 ETH for example), click **"Add"** and sign the transaction.
    
5.  Then we will pass to [Farm ETH](https://stargate.finance/farm/ETH-ARBITRUM/add) and there we will enter 50% of the sum from the previous step, then click **"Approve"** and sign the transaction, then **"Add Stake"** and sign the transaction.
    
6.  Go to [rage.trade](https://www.app.rage.trade/trade/) (The protocol doesn't have its own token yet, so it's must🧐). Above the chart we see the inscription and the button **"Deposit"**, then press **"Approve"**, the window for deposit opens and we see the minimum amount of 20 USDC, but there is a nuance, that is not necessary to deposit the specified amount. It is safe to deposit the amount from 5,01 USDC (**IMPORTANT!** The amount should be more than 5,01 USDC, otherwise you will not be able to open position). Leave some USDC ($0.1 - $0.5), we will need it in step 8.
    
7.  Choose **"Long" or "Short"** in the **"Amount"** we enter a random value (for example from 0.1$ to 1$ USDC, ETH will be filled in the field above automatically) and press **"Swap"**. Under the graph, we have our position. I recommend to close not at once (15 minutes and more). Repeat 1-2 times per month to warm up the purse (commission for position opening and closing ~ $0.5).
    
8.  Переходим в [Radiant Capital](https://app.radiant.capital/#/asset-detail/0xff970a61a04b1ca14834a43f5de4533ebddb5cc8-0xff970a61a04b1ca14834a43f5de4533ebddb5cc80x091d52cace1edc5527c99cdcfa6937c1635330e4-Borrow). Press **"DEPOSIT"**, then under **"Deposit overview"** we will enter a random value (from 0.1$ up to 0.5$ for example), then **"Approve"**, then **"Deposit"**
    
9.  Then we go to the tab **"Borrow"**, move the slider to the minimum value (in the green zone), then press **"Continue"**, then **"Borrow"**. Sign and confirm the transaction
    
10.  Create a collection [on the Holograph](https://app.holograph.xyz/create-collection). Then create the NFT itself, add a picture. Then click **"Deploy"** on the collection that appears, choose "Polygon", click "Deploy". Then do **"Deploy"** on the Avalanche network.To get a native token into Avalanche and Polygon quickly, I use Refuel from [bungee](https://bungee.exchange/refuel). I withdraw ~$2.2 from arbitrage to Polygon and ~$1.5 to Avalanche.
    
11.  Go to the collection itself, and click **"Mint"** (on the Polygon network) on our picture, sign the transaction.
    
12.  After we've deplotched our NFT in the two networks, and made a Mint in Polygon - go to ["Bridge"](https://app.holograph.xyz/bridge), and send our NFT from Polygon to Avalanche.
    
13.  We go to [https://testnetbridge.com/](https://testnetbridge.com/), and send some ETH from Arbitrum to Goerli (for example 0.0001 ETH), after paying ~ $0.25 commission we get the real transaction, which is displayed on [http://layerzeroscan.com/](http://layerzeroscan.com/), and also we get some ETH in Goerli (which is not so easy to get from cranes, you will need always)
    
14.  Vote at [https://snapshot.org/#/stgdao.eth](https://snapshot.org/#/stgdao.eth), when votes appear Now we have to keep the minimum activity on the accounts - item 6 (rage.trade), 13 (bridge) and 14 (snapshot) On my personal account I additionally use all the bridges:
    
    [https://bitcoinbridge.network/bridge](https://bitcoinbridge.network/bridge)
    
    [https://theaptosbridge.com/bridge](https://theaptosbridge.com/bridge)
    
    [https://layerzero.bridge.harmony.one](https://layerzero.bridge.harmony.one)
