# Swapping or Minting $sDAI on Gnosis Chain

Once you have $xDAI, you must obtain $sDAI using two methods:

## Swapping to $sDAI

There are a few known DEXs with deep liquidity that we can swap your tokens to xDAI and sDAI.

1. Balancer - <https://app.balancer.fi/#/gnosis-chain/swap>
2. Honeyswap - <https://honeyswap.1hive.eth.limo/#/swap>

There are more DEXs, but these have the deepest liquidity on Gnosis Chain.

You should not swap all the $xDAI for $sDAI as you still need $xDAI for gas! You may need to get more xDAI for gas fees occasionally!

## Minting $sDAI using $xDAI

You can mint $sDAI directly on the Agave website here:

Mint $sDAI directly on Agave!

Either way, you now have both $xDAI and $sDAI, you're now ready to trade on Mu!
