2. How to Participate
​
The OriginTrail Parachain crowdloan process is performed on the Polkadot network and is a permissionless event. This means that participants can have multiple ways of taking part in the crowdloan process. Below we will list all the options that the Trace Labs team was made aware of. Using any third party service is under sole discretion and responsibility of participants. Before participating using any of the options below please familiarize yourself with the Terms & Conditions.
Option 1: Using Polkadot.js wallet browser extension
Contribute your DOT using the main Polkadot wallet interface - Polkadot.js.
Step 1: Prepare your wallet
​Install the Polkadot.js browser extension and create a Polkadot wallet if you do not have one. The video below shows a step-by-step guide on how to create a Polkadot JS wallet.
Ensure that you have MORE THAN 1 DOT remaining amount after your contributions (Polkadot existential amount) or your wallet will be automatically purged by the Polkadot blockchain and cannot be returned. Read more on the Polkadot Existential amount here.
In case you have DOT tokens bonded in Polkadot, ensure that they are unbonded to be able to participate in the OriginTrail Parachain crowdloan. 
 You can contribute multiple times with the same account.
Step 2: Contribute on the Polkadot JS crowdloan page​
Visit the Polkadot.js Crowdloan page and click the “+ Contribute” button next to the OriginTrail Parachain.
Click on the "Contribute" button in the OriginTrail Parachain row
Step 3: Confirm your parameters and execute the transaction
Select your wallet, enter your contribution amount in DOT and click the Contribute button.
Insert your contribution amount and click "Contribute" in the bottom right corner
​
Once your transaction successfully completes, you are done!
DOT Redemption: Your DOT will be unlocked and returned to you after 96 weeks in a trustless way.
