Mainnet Swap is a process of migrating a cryptocurrency from one blockchain to its own mainnet.

Mainnet Swap is a process where a cryptocurrency transitions from an existing blockchain to its own independent mainnet. Initially, new projects often launch tokens on established blockchains like Ethereum or Binance Smart Chain for easier development and deployment. Once a project develops its own blockchain, a mainnet swap occurs. This involves exchanging the old tokens for new ones on the project's proprietary blockchain. Users are required to follow specific instructions to exchange their tokens. The mainnet swap is crucial for a project seeking enhanced functionality, scalability, and independence.
