Enter this page: https://app.stafi.io/rDOT/type, click "Connect to Polkadotjs", and select "Yes, allow this application access" in the pop-up interface and then connect successfully.

In addition, User needs to sign three times. Please pay attention to the account that initiates signature.
The first signature: user signs for the transaction on the Polkadot chain.
Signature account: Polkadot account
Second signature: Considering that the information on the Polkadot chain is open and transparent, anyone could obtain the transaction information and upload it to the StaFi chain to mint rDOT. Therefore, before sending the transaction information to StaFi chain, it is necessary to reconfirm the ownership of the transaction to ensure the security.
Signature account: Polkadot account
The third signature is to send the transaction information on the Polkadot chain to the StaFi chain. After it is verified by the StaFi chain, users will receive rDOT tokens.
