# FAQ

Quick answers to the most common questions.

## General

**Is Kumbaya custodial?** No. You always control your wallet and your tokens. Kumbaya never holds your funds.

**What chain is Kumbaya on?** [MegaETH](https://megaeth.com/) — chain ID `4326` for mainnet, `6343` for testnet.

**Do I need ETH to use Kumbaya?** Yes, for gas — but transactions cost a tiny fraction of a cent on MegaETH.

**Can I use Kumbaya from outside the website?** Yes. The DEX is permissionless — anyone can swap, LP, or interact directly via the Uniswap V3 fork. See the [developer docs](https://github.com/Kumbaya-xyz/documentation/blob/main/developer/README.md).

**Is Kumbaya audited?** Yes — the Kumbaya launchpad has a signed BlockSec audit, and the DEX inherits Uniswap V3's Trail of Bits and ABDK audits. See [**Audit & security**](/help/audit-and-security.md) for the full breakdown, the bundled BlockSec report, and links to the upstream V3 audits.

## Wallets

**Do I need a browser extension?** No. Kumbaya offers two paths in the connect modal: **Kumbaya Wallet** (full access; uses Privy and supports either an existing wallet OR email / Google / X / Discord / GitHub / Telegram social login) and **DEX only** (existing wallet, swap and LP only). See [**Connect your wallet**](/getting-started/connect-your-wallet.md).

**What's the difference between Kumbaya Wallet and DEX only?** Kumbaya Wallet gets you the full platform — DEX, launchpad, comments, tipping, profile. DEX only gets you swap and pool features without any social attribution. You can switch later.

**Can I export my embedded wallet's private key?** Yes. If you signed in via Privy with email or social, Privy provides an export flow. Once you have your private key you can import it into any wallet you want.

**I changed my login method and now my balances are gone — what happened?** Different *social* login methods give you different embedded wallets. Sign back in with your original method (email / Google / X / Discord / GitHub / Telegram) and your funds will be there. (This doesn't apply if you connected an existing external wallet — that wallet stays the same regardless of how you sign in.)

## Trading

**Why did my swap fail?** Most likely slippage exceeded your tolerance, or the price moved more than expected between clicking and confirming. Bump tolerance or reduce trade size — see [**Slippage and gas explained**](/trading/slippage-and-gas.md).

**How do I trade a token that isn't in the list?** Click the token picker, paste the contract address. Always verify the address — anyone can deploy a token with any name.

## Liquidity

**What's "concentrated liquidity"?** A way of providing liquidity where you pick a price range. You earn more fees per dollar while in range, but stop earning when price leaves your range. See [**What is concentrated liquidity?**](/liquidity/concentrated-liquidity.md).

**Are my LP positions tokenized?** Yes — each position is an NFT in your wallet. You can transfer it like any other NFT.

## Launchpad

**How does a launchpad token graduate?** When the price reaches a configured graduation tick, the bonding curve consolidates into a regular Uniswap V3 pool. See [**How bonding curves and graduation work**](/launchpad/bonding-curves.md).

**How do creators earn?** Two streams: **tips** from buyers (the protocol gives buyers a tiny tip-bonus credit on each buy, and buyers can tip creators with it) and **post-graduation streaming fees** from the consolidated pool. See [**Creator fees**](/launchpad/creator-fees.md).

**Can I rug?** By design, no. The bonding curve and tail liquidity aren't yours to pull, and the standard launch flow gives creators no direct token allocation.

**My token shows as "Unclaimed" — what do I do?** The on-chain creator wallet hasn't been linked to a Kumbaya profile yet. Sign in with that wallet and click **Claim**. See [**If your token shows as Unclaimed**](/launchpad/unclaimed-tokens.md).
