# Buying HYPE

If you don’t yet own any **HYPE**, we recommend following [this guide](../kick-off-on-hyperevm) to bridge **USDC** onto Hyperliquid’s **L1 DEX** and purchase HYPE there. Once you've completed the swap, simply follow the steps to transfer your HYPE to **HyperEVM**, and then to your _**alright botty**_ wallet.
