Users with $KUJI on other IBC chains will first need to IBC their $KUJI back to the Kujira Network. As most of the IBC-bridged $KUJI is deposited on Osmosis, we will use Osmosis as the example.
To convert your $KUJI tokens to $RUJI, follow the steps outlined below:
IBC $KUJI from Osmosis to Kujira Network.
(Optional) Buy $ATOM to transact on the Cosmos Hub Chain.
Convert your Merge tokens to $RUJI.

⚡️IBC $KUJI from Osmosis to Kujira Network
Kujira users that have their $KUJI on Osmosis, need to IBC their tokens from the Osmosis network back to Kujira. They can do that by the following steps:
Go to kujira.network and connect your wallet in the top right corner.
Click in the top right corner and select “Deposit”.
Click “KUJI”, select “Osmosis” and then select Keplr as the source wallet.
For the Amount, press “Max”.
Press “Send” and approve the transaction.
⚡️(Optional) Buy $ATOM to Transact on the Cosmos Hub Chain
For the second step and third step of the Merge, you will need to pay gas fees to do a transaction. If you already own $ATOM on the Cosmos Hub, you can skip this step.
Follow These Steps to Buy $ATOM
Go to https://mantaswap.app/ and connect your Keplr wallet in the top right corner.
At the section Swap, search for KUJI and enter 2 as the amount.
At the section To, search for ATOM. The system will automatically calculate the equivalent dollar value in $ATOM.
Click “Swap” and approve the transaction in your Keplr Wallet.
Follow These Steps to IBC Your $ATOM to the Cosmos Hub
Go to https://kujira.network/ and connect your Keplr wallet in the top right corner.
Go to Portfolio at the top, then scroll down to Token and search for your $ATOM.
Press the three dots, click “Withdraw” and choose the Cosmos Hub.
Click “Withdraw Max”, and fill in your address via the Keplr-icon.
Press “Withdraw” and sign the transaction. Your $ATOM is now being sent to the Cosmos Hub.
⚡️(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
Go to https://rujira.network/swap/GAIA.ATOM/THOR.RUNE and connect your Keplr in the top right corner.
For $ATOM, fill in Amount 0.1. The system will automatically calculate the equivalent dollar value in $RUNE.
Click on “Select Destination” and select your THOR address.
Click “Instant Swap” and approve the transaction in your Keplr Wallet.
⚡️Convert Your $KUJI to $RUJI
To convert your $KUJI from the Cosmos Hub to $RUJI on the THORChain network, follow these steps:
Box 1: Send $KUJI to the Cosmos Hub
Go to rujira.network/merge and connect your Keplr wallet in the top right corner.
The left box (“IBC to Cosmos Hub”) is to send your $KUJI to the Cosmos Hub.
If you're not already on the Kujira network, click “Click here to switch to the Kujira network”.
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.
Click “Send to Cosmos Hub”, then approve the transaction in the Keplr wallet extension.
Your $KUJI is now being sent to the Cosmos Hub.
Box 2: Deposit $KUJI on THORChain
Go to rujira.network/merge and connect your Keplr wallet in the top right corner.
The middle box (“Deposit on THORChain”) is to deposit your $KUJI to THORChain.
If you're not already on the Cosmos Hub network, click “Click here to switch to the Cosmos Hub network”.
Click “Balance on Cosmos Hub” to select the entire amount.
Click “Deposit”, then approve the transaction in the Keplr wallet extension.
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.
If you're not already on the THORChain network, click “Click here to switch to the THORChain network”.
(Optional: If your “Balance on THORChain” doesn’t update within a minute, refresh the page.)
Click “Balance on THORChain” to select the entire amount.
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.
