Hey All,

![image.png](https://images.hive.blog/DQmck9thub65nxte5ivwcVyC5GRhh4yGh893tFr46Md6sSJ/image.png)

$FBA token is Firebird Aggregator Token (FBA) which is a next-gen profit-sharing token backed with multi-chain utilities. In more simple words its a multi-chain DEX aggregator with best-rates and cash-back are availed for every swap made. 

Its been ages that I invested in $HOPE token which is associated [FireBird Finance](https://firebirdfinance.medium.com/) and was the governance token for [app.firebird.finance](app.firebird.finance) that ran on Polygon network. The FireBird team shifted its focus purely to **aggregation**, optimizing their aggregator and building the app more on the [Fantom  Blockchain](https://fantom.foundation/)

So as the focus shifted the token Holders for $HOPE and $HOPE-P had to burn their tokens to receive the new $FBA token which is the new governance token for [app.firebird.finance](app.firebird.finance). Simply lock $FBA for $veFBA and stake that $veFBA to earn USDC.

All these days, I had closed to 100K+ $HOPE token sitting ideal. And at one point I thought that I will swap it for $MATCI someday. But, when I stumbled about this news  that we have 10 days remaining to burn and claim $FBA token. It got me excited and look into the process of burning $HOPE and get this new governance token $FBA

### Firebird FBA Token Migration Guideline

There is a guide available for $HOPE and $HOPE-P holders to follow to burn their respective tokens to claim $FBA. The guide has simple steps to follow and you can easily claim your $FBA token. 

### Step 1 Visit Burn Interface on Firebird’s App

[Firebird’s App Link](https://legacy.firebird.finance/burn) connect to the wallet either Polygon for (HOPE) or BNB for (HOPE-P) depending on which token you HOLD. I had $HOPE, so I connected my wallet with Polygon to burn 100K+ $HOPE

### Step 2 Enter amount of tokens to Burn for $FBA

100K+ HOPE got me close to 740 $FBA tokens. 313 $FBA were immediately available for trade/swap and the remaining tokens are claimable as the vesting date ends i.e. in another 99 days I'll be getting fraction of $FBA tokens daily.

Currently, $FBA is trading for $1.6+ and the plan I have for the tokens that I claimed is to stake them and participate in the governance voting and receive the staking rewards in the form of $USDC. **$FBA** HOLDERs need to lock their tokens for **$veFBA** used to participate in governance AND then receive 25%+ of total multi-chain profits.
