From Banks and Back to Banks
Starting from Old Glory Bank to 0xCoast to PulseChain is one of the fastest and most integrated fiat on-ramp paths for US users.
Old Glory Bank Account Setup & Funding
Open an account at Old Glory Bank (online/mobile app, available in all 50 US states). It's an FDIC-insured bank focused on pro-crypto/freedom-oriented banking.
Fund your account via:
- ACH transfers from another bank
- Mobile check deposit
- Cash deposits (Cash-IN) at over 88,000 retail locations
- Direct deposit, wires, etc.
Old Glory integrates directly with Coast via Old Glory Pay (a private, secure payment system).
Old Glory Bank → Coast App (Deposit)
- Log into the Coast App at app.0xcoast.com.
- Go to the deposit/funding section and select the Old Glory Pay option.
- In the Old Glory Bank app, use Old Glory Pay to transfer funds to Coast (search for "Coast" as the recipient).
- Deposits are often automated and can appear in your Coast digital account quickly (users report near-instant or minutes). This is highlighted as one of the fastest methods.
No crypto involved at this stage — it's a standard bank-to-bank-style transfer via their partnership.
Coast → Mint CST or Buy Assets on PulseChain
Once funds are in your Coast account, connect your PulseChain wallet (e.g., MetaMask or Internet Money Wallet).
Option A (Stablecoin):
Mint CST (1:1 USD-backed stablecoin on PulseChain) for flexible on-chain use.
Option B (Direct Buy):
Buy PulseChain assets like PLS, PLSX, HEX, etc., directly with your USD balance. Trades route through decentralized exchanges (DEXes) on PulseChain for self-custody.
Transactions typically complete in minutes (4-8+ depending on network). Funds/tokens go directly to your connected wallet — full self-custody from this point.
On PulseChain
Why This Combo Works Well
- Speed: Old Glory Bank users can reach PulseChain in under a minute in ideal cases.
- Low friction: Direct partnership reduces fees/delays compared to other banks.
- Self-custodial focus: Coast emphasizes DEX routing and user control.
- Additional perks: Old Glory has its own future crypto plans (including PulseChain support and OGUSD stablecoin), making the ecosystem even tighter long-term.
Tips
- Start with a small test amount.
- Have your PulseChain wallet ready.
- Check Coast's help docs or support for the latest Old Glory Pay instructions.
- Always verify addresses and use official apps.
