# How to Buy XGLD
XGLD, the yield-bearing gold issued by Unitas, can be acquired on the secondary market or minted directly through the Unitas protocol.
1. **Connect Wallet**
Go to the official [**XGLD dApp**](https://evm.unitas.so/xgld), click **"Connect Wallet,"** and choose **BSC** or **Base**, and then sign the confirmation in your wallet.
*Note: XGLD currently only supports these two networks; connecting to any unsupported network will hide your XGLD assets and features.*

2. **Buy XGLD**
Click **"Buy XGLD"** on the homepage to enter the swap interface. Enter the amount of **XAUt** you wish to spend (or switch to other supported tokens), click **"Review swap"** to check the quote, and then click **"Start swapping"** to authorize and sign the transaction in your wallet.
*Note: This feature integrates the LI.FI router and requires an EIP-7702 Smart Account. If not yet activated, a prompt will guide you to set it up. Alternatively, you can click the bottom banner to trade directly on* [*PancakeSwap*](https://pancakeswap.finance/swap?chain=bsc\&outputCurrency=0xe60106a5cAb7e7C64830919d36Ab20CaAf50Ac91\&inputCurrency=0x21cAef8A43163Eea865baeE23b9C2E327696A3bf)*.*

3. **Check Portfolio & Earnings**
Return to the XGLD main page post-transaction to track your assets and earnings data in real-time:
* **Future 1-Year Yield**: Click to estimate expected yields over different future time horizons (based on current holdings and APY; for reference only).
* **XGLD Holdings:** Current value of your XGLD holdings
* **Earnings**: Displays the accrued, un-claimed book earnings from your current holdings.
* **Yesterday's**: Click to view cumulative realized earnings over different historical periods.
*Note: All displayed earnings are calculated based on XAUt standard and converted to USD value using XAUt's real-time market price. Consequently, your earnings value will fluctuate dynamically with XAUt market prices.*

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.
Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:
```
GET https://docs.unitas.so/guides/how-to-buy-xgld.md?ask=&goal=
```
`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.
Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
