Sonar only supports the Kujira network, and will sunset with the migration to THORChain to be replaced by Station. This means it will not be possible to convert your tokens to $RUJI via Sonar, and you will need to download an alternative (mobile) wallet. The steps you have to follow depend on whether you have access to a recovery phrase.

To convert your Merge tokens to $RUJI, follow the steps outlined below:

When you have set-up your Sonar Wallet by using an existing recovery phrase, or by creating a new one, you can use this to set-up your Keplr wallet.

  1. Download and install the Keplr Mobile wallet via https://apps.apple.com/nl/app/keplr-wallet/id1567851089 or https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.chainapsis.keplr.

  2. Search for Kujira and press “Add to Keplr.”

  3. Once added, go back to the main screen and search for Kujira in the search bar.

  4. Click “Manage,” select Kujira, and press Save.

(Optional) Buy $ATOM to Transact on the Cosmos Hub Chain

To perform transactions on the Cosmos Hub, you’ll need $ATOM to pay for gas fees. If you already own $ATOM on the Cosmos Hub, you can skip this step.

Follow these steps to buy and transfer $ATOM:

  1. In the Sonar app, go to Swap.

  2. At the top, choose $KUJI and enter 2. At the bottom, select $ATOM. The system will automatically calculate the equivalent dollar value in $ATOM.

  3. Press Swap and wait for the transaction to complete.

Send $ATOM to the Cosmos Hub

Follow these steps to IBC your $ATOM to the Cosmos Hub:

  1. Go to your Keplr Mobile Wallet and press on ATOM (on Kujira).

  2. Press on “Send” and then “IBC Send”.

  3. Select “Cosmos Hub” and at Amount, choose “Max”.

  4. Press “Next” and then “Approve”.

(Optional) Buy $RUNE to transact on THORChain.

To perform transactions on THORChain, you’ll need $RUNE to pay for gas fees. If you already own $RUNE on THORChain, you can skip this step.

Follow these steps to buy $RUNE:

  1. Open your Keplr mobile wallet and press “Browser” at the bottom.

  2. Go to https://rujira.network/swap/GAIA.ATOM/THOR.RUNE and connect your Keplr wallet in the top right corner.

  4. Click on “Select Destination” and select your THOR address.

  5. Click “Instant Swap” and approve the transaction in your Keplr Wallet.

⚡️Option 2: I have lost my recovery phrase or set-up Sonar with a Passkey.

Create a Keplr Mobile Wallet with a new recovery phrase.

When you have set-up your Sonar Wallet via a Passkey or you have forgotten your recovery phrase, follow these steps:

  2. Open Keplr Mobile Wallet and press “Create a new wallet”.

  3. Press “Create new recovery phrase”.

Your recovery phrase will appear and you have the choice to choose between 12 or 24 words. The more words a recovery phrase contains, the safer it is. Do not share your recovery phrase with anyone. Write it down or store it securely—this is the only way to regain access to your wallet.

  1. Press “Next”, fill in the two words, wallet name, and password, then press “Next”.

  2. Deselect Noble and press “Save”.

  3. (Optional: Enable Biometric Authentication) Press “Done”.

  2. Click “Balance on Kujira” to select the entire amount. Reduce the total by 0.1 $KUJI to ensure you have enough for gas fees.

    • Example: If you want to send 100 $KUJI, manually change the amount to 99.9 $KUJI.

  3. Click “Send to Cosmos Hub”, then approve the transaction in the Keplr wallet extension.

  4. Your $KUJI is now being sent to the Cosmos Hub.

Box 2: Deposit $KUJI on THORChain

The middle box (“Deposit on THORChain”) is to deposit your $KUJI to THORChain.

  1. If you're not already on the Cosmos Hub network, click “Click here to switch to the Cosmos Hub network”.

  2. (Optional: If your “Balance on Cosmos Hub” doesn't show the expected amount, refresh the page.)

  3. Click “Balance on Cosmos Hub” to select the entire amount.

  4. Click “Deposit”, then approve the transaction in the Keplr wallet extension.

  5. Your $KUJI is now being deposited on THORChain

Box 3: Convert $KUJI to $RUJI

The box on the right(“Convert to RUJI”) is to complete the final step to convert $KUJI to $RUJI.

  1. If you're not already on the THORChain network, click “Click here to switch to the THORChain network”.

  2. (Optional: If your “Balance on THORChain” doesn’t update within a minute, refresh the page.)

  3. Click “Balance on THORChain” to select the entire amount.

  4. Click “Merge to RUJI”, then approve the transaction in the Keplr wallet extension.

Once your $KUJI has been converted to $RUJI, you have successfully completed the Merge!

⚡️Claiming your $RUJI tokens

You will be able to claim your $RUJI on Token Generation Event (TGE) day, which will be announced at a later date. Once $RUJI is live, you can partially or fully claim your tokens on rujira.network/merge. For now, gas fees for interacting with the App Layer are set to 0, so you can claim your tokens and explore the ecosystem without paying any gas.

You have a few options for how to use your $RUJI:

  • Keep your tokens locked in the Merge contract and earn bonus tokens.

  • Unlock your tokens, start staking, and earn USDC rewards from protocol fees.

  • Unlock your tokens and use them within RUJI products.

Keep in mind that withdrawing from the Merge contract is a one-way bridge, meaning you won’t be able to deposit your tokens back in.

Stay updated on the TGE by following announcements from the Rujira X main account.

⚡️Questions and help

We understand that some parts of the Merge are difficult, and that issues can arise. If you need support with the Merge, please join our official Telegram chat (https://t.me/Rujira_Community) and we will help you with any question you have. In our official Telegram chat, make sure to only interact with team members and admins (with a tag in their name), and never answer to any DM's. None of the team members and admins will DM you first, so anyone who does is most likely a scammer.

We also want to emphasize that all official updates, links, and announcements will come exclusively from the official Rujira X account. Any other sources claiming to provide guidance, links, or assistance are most likely scams. We urge you to stay vigilant and avoid engaging with unverified actors.
