# Claiming your Autonomi Network Tokens

If you are [eligible to claim](https://shareholders.maidsafe.net/claiming-autonomi-tokens/who-is-eligable) Autonomi Network Tokens (ANT) via NFT should have already submitted your wallet address to the Autonomi Foundation. \
\
Here's a step-by-step guide on how to claim:<br>

{% step %}

### Submit Your Wallet Address

You'll need a [Compatible Wallet](https://app.gitbook.com/s/yZv1zkASl6hUNUmP3ypg/using-autonomi-tokens/holding/compatible-wallets) to hold the NFT, and any ANT you'll be claiming. If you haven't already submitted your wallet address to the Autonomi Foundation, you can do so [via this form](https://autonomi.typeform.com/to/oYnm27Up).
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Visit the Claims Site

Head to[ **claims.autonomi.com**](https://claims.autonomi.com) where you'll be able to see your NFT, the amount of tokens it entitles you to, and begin your claim
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Connect Your Wallet

Click the `Connect Wallet` button, and then connect the same wallet you submitted to the Foundation in Step 1. This is where your NFT has been sent.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

### View Claimable ANT

Once connected, your NFT and claimable ANT allocation will appear.

* As of **May 12, 2025**, 50% of your allocation is available.
* The remaining 50% unlocks on **August 10, 2025**.
  {% endstep %}

{% step %}

### [Fund Your Transaction Fees](https://shareholders.maidsafe.net/claiming-autonomi-tokens/funding-your-transaction-costs)

You'll need a small amount of Ethereum (which must be on the on the Arbitrum One Network) in your wallet to cover the transaction fees, or *Gas*, in order to claim your tokens. Less than $10 worth should suffice for numerous transactions.\

Read our [step-by-step guide](https://shareholders.maidsafe.net/claiming-autonomi-tokens/funding-your-transaction-costs) on how to do this.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Claim Your Tokens

* Enter the number of tokens you wish to claim and click **“Claim”**. You don't have to claim them all in one go.
* Claimed tokens should then appear in your wallet. If not, add them manually using this contract address:\
  `0xa78d8321B20c4Ef90eCd72f2588AA985A4BDb684`

For further information on setting up your wallet to hold ANT, and how to use them, visit the [Autonomi Docs](https://docs.autonomi.com/ant).

### Important notes about claiming

1. **There is no time limit.** You may claim at a time that is best for you and your financial and tax situation.
2. **You don't need to claim them all at once.** You can claim incrementally, in as many tranches as you like
3. **You don't have to sell after you claim.** The tokens are yours, and there is no obligation to sell after claiming. You can choose a time, and a price that is right for you

{% endhint %}
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Manage Responsibly

* Claims may be taxable. Selling your NFT or ANT tokens is optional and unrestricted.
* No recovery is possible if tokens are lost or mismanaged.
