I will be using Kyber Network DAPP to exchange some ethereum to buy some Kyber Network Crystal tokens – KNC tokens. So, I will input one ethereum – just to get an idea on how KNC tokens I will get.

As you can see, I will get around 900 tokens with one ethereum. So, if you want to swap your ethereum to KNC tokens, just click on Swap and it will take away one ethereum from your wallet and exchange it with 900 something KNC tokens.
