Introduction
In a major step forward for the XDC Network, Uniswap V3 now supports native XDC, enabling seamless token swaps directly on the OKU.trade platform. This integration provides users with a decentralized, efficient, and secure way to trade tokens on the XDC blockchain without needing to wrap XDC or use bridged assets.
In this guide, we’ll walk you through how to swap native XDC for another token using OKU, a powerful frontend for Uniswap V3 on the XDC Network.

Before you start, make sure you have the following ready:
- A wallet (e.g., MetaMask or XDCPay) connected to the XDC Network
