Connect your wallet

To use on-chain features — like the savings pool, on-chain donations, and governance voting — you need to connect a crypto wallet.
1

Get a wallet

If you do not have one already, download Coinbase Wallet from the app store or as a browser extension. Other wallets that support the Base network also work.
2

Connect to Shirikia

Click Connect Wallet in the app. Select your wallet and approve the connection.
3

Switch to Base network

Make sure your wallet is set to the Base network. The app will prompt you to switch if needed.
You need a small amount of ETH on Base to cover transaction fees for on-chain actions. You can bridge ETH from Ethereum mainnet or buy it directly through your wallet.
