Here's How to Buy THEO on Hydrex
THEO is the foundational utility token powering identity, privacy, application infrastructure, and ecosystem participation across the Autheo operating system.
Primary listing on Hydrex DEX , a decentralized exchange built on Base for professional token markets.
Set Up Your Wallet
Install a compatible EVM wallet, MetaMask is the most common, and add the Base network, since Hydrex runs on Base. US-based users typically fund their wallet by buying crypto on a centralized exchange like Coinbase, Kraken, or OKX and withdrawing to Base, which requires KYC on the exchange side.

Common Questions
THEO lists on Hydrex Thursday, August 20, 2026. We're finalizing liquidity with our appointed market maker ahead of that date, and we'll share any final details across our newsletter, X, and this page as launch day approaches.
Hydrex is a decentralized exchange (DEX) built on Base for professional token markets. Once live, THEO will be searchable directly on Hydrex's pools page under the THEO ticker. Trading is fully permissionless, with no account registration required.
There's no account or registration required to trade on Hydrex itself, since it's a permissionless DEX. That said, most US-based users first need to onboard funds onto the Base network through a centralized exchange such as Coinbase, Kraken, or OKX. Those exchanges apply KYC checks to comply with federal and state regulations. Once your funds are on Base, you're free to interact with Hydrex and the rest of its decentralized infrastructure without further KYC.
Any EVM-compatible wallet works. MetaMask and WalletConnect-compatible wallets are supported. You'll need to add the Base network, since Hydrex runs on Base rather than a separate Autheo-specific network. Full setup instructions will be published with the launch announcement.
No. Tokens purchased through the Hydrex DEX at launch are fully liquid with no lock-up or vesting period.
Node operator allocations and vesting schedules are separate from the public listing. Your allocation is unaffected. Reach out via the contact page for specifics on your node.
