BYOD Device Onboarding Guide
This guide explains how to onboard your own device (BYOD) to technically participate in Fry Networks by providing resources or sharing environmental data.
BYOD License Overview
License Fee: 105 USD equivalent (payable exclusively in Fry v2 tokens).
Step-by-Step Guide
Step 1: Create Your Algorand Account If you don’t have an Algorand account yet, create one using recommended apps like Pera or Defly.
Step 2: Prepare Your Algorand Account Transfer the required number of Algo tokens into your account. Ensure the amount transferred covers the equivalent of the BYOD license fee plus a small additional amount to accommodate transaction fees.
Step 3: Opt-In to Fry v2 Token (ASA: 2485314946) From your Algorand account app, complete the opt-in process for the Fry v2 token.
Step 4: Obtain Fry v2 Tokens Use the token swap feature provided within your Algorand app (such as Pera) to exchange Algo tokens for Fry v2 tokens. Note: Retain a small balance (~10 Algo) to cover potential transaction costs.
Step 5: Activate Your BYOD License Visit the BYOD License Portal to activate your device license. After successful activation, a confirmation email containing your unique license number will be provided.
