🔗Connect wallet

Using the Mintera App requires you to connect your wallet through WalletConnect.

WalletConnect is an open-source framework that helps implement established connections between various crypto wallets and decentralized applications (DApps).

Connecting your wallet enables the use of funds stored in your wallet on the Mintera App.

What wallet should I use?

You can connect different types of wallet. One of the most popular options is Metamask.

How to connect your wallet

Prerequisite: make sure that you have a WalletConnect compatible wallet like Metamask installed on your device.

Go to app.mintera.co (make sure you are on the right URL). You will see at the top of the page if your wallet is not connected:

1. Click the button "Connect Wallet" on the top right. It will open the WalletConnect interface:

2. Select your wallet, for example Metamask. This should automatically open your wallet.

3. Authorize the dApp: you’ll receive a pop-up asking if you wish to approve the connection to the chosen wallet. Review and authorize the connection.

Once you authorize the connection, the Mintera App can successfully access and interact with your wallet.

If you own MNTE tokens, you should now see your balance on the Dashboard.

You can now use your MNTE in our DeFi products like the Green Mining Yield (GMY).

Approve transactions with a connected wallet

When you make a transaction within the App, a pop-up requiring your approval for the transaction will appear. Check the transaction details and click Confirm.

You will be invited to specify the amount of MNTE tokens you approve to send to the staking contract. This amount should be the same to the one you fill in the UI.

Click on Confirm after checking the details.

Is WalletConnect safe?

WalletConnect establishes a secure, encrypted connection between your wallet and the DApp. All information transmitted between the wallet and DApp is encrypted symmetrically with a shared key that only these two parties possess.

Generally, to improve your custody security, we advise you to use a personal physical cold wallet to store your assets. Please remind: "Not your keys, not your coins".
