    Understanding ApeX Omni Protocol Funding

    ApeX Omni Protocol allows you to fund your account from multiple sources. Available blockchains include Arbitrum, Base, BNB Smart Chain, Ethereum and Mantle Network. This guide will show you how to fund your account using Arbitrum USDT or USDC.
    Funding your ApeX Omni Protocol account means moving supported collateral to the Arbitrum network. You'll need two things: stablecoin collateral (USDC or USDT) for trading margin, and a small amount of ETH for transaction gas fees.

    Supported Collateral

    USDC and USDT on Arbitrum network

    Network

    Arbitrum (Layer 2 on Ethereum)

    Gas Requirements

    Keep $5-10 in ETH for transactions

    Important: Only send assets to your own wallet address over the Arbitrum network. Test with a small amount first. Wrong network = potential loss of funds.
