​
Connect your wallet

To use on-chain features — like the savings pool, on-chain donations, and governance voting — you need a wallet on the Base network. Shirikia makes this very simple using Coinbase.
1

Click Connect Wallet

On the app, click Connect Wallet. If you do not already have a wallet, you do not need to download any extensions or apps first.
2

Set up your Coinbase account

You are guided through creating or signing in to a Coinbase account using your email. Coinbase sends you a one-time password (OTP) to verify your email address.
3

Your Base wallet is created for you

After you confirm the OTP, Coinbase automatically creates a Base wallet for you in the background and connects it to Shirikia.
You do not need to worry about gas fees when using Shirikia — transaction fees on Base are covered by the Shirikia DAO platform for you.
