# Getting Started

New to BeeZee? Here is the quickest way to begin.

## 1. Get a wallet

We recommend [Keplr](https://www.keplr.app/) as your go-to wallet for BeeZee. It is a free, self-custodial wallet for your browser and phone that works smoothly with BeeZee and many other blockchains — so you stay in full control of your coins, with no account to sign up for.

Step-by-step instructions for installing Keplr and adding BZE are covered in the wallet guide.

## 2. Get some BZE

You will need a small amount of BZE to pay the network's low transaction fees.

The easiest way is right inside our apps: open the wallet panel in any BeeZee dApp and use **Buy BZE**. Pick an asset you already hold on another network — connecting MetaMask, Keplr, or whatever wallet you use there — and it is swapped to BZE for you in minutes. You can also buy BZE on supported exchanges.

## 3. Explore the apps

Each app has its own guide (linked here as those pages are published):

* **DEX** — trade coins and tokens directly from your wallet.
* **Staking** — stake your BZE to help secure the network and earn rewards.
* **Token Factory** — create your own token in seconds, no coding required.
* **Burner** — take part in community token burns and burning raffles.
* **Communities** — discover and support projects built on BeeZee.
