What is $METIS?

$METIS is the currency used on Andromeda to pay for transaction fees and, consequently, to deploy a DAO, in the same way that $ETH is used on Ethereum.

How to get $METIS?

$METIS needs to be transferred onto the Andromeda Network using a 'bridge' such as this bridge here. It allows you to bring the $METIS from the Ethereum Network to $METIS on the Metis Andromeda Mainnet.

How much $METIS is necessary to deploy a DAO?

At least 0.2 $METIS is required to deploy an Aragon DAO, though the actual cost might be much less.
