Creating or Connecting Your Wallet

You can create a new wallet directly in our interface via Privy or connect an existing wallet to start trading with trade[XYZ]. Either method will link an address to trade on the platform, and you can switch methods or wallets later.

1. Create a new wallet with Privy (email)

This is the fastest option for new users without a crypto wallet. You can use Privy’s third party key management solution to generate a new secure wallet directly in your browser using an email address. Your keys are encrypted and stored securely, allowing you to sign trades without worrying about managing seed phrases yourself.

This is generally good for first-time crypto users or anyone who prefers a simplified setup or email recovery.

You can create a Privy wallet as follows:

• Click Connect Wallet in the top right or within the order window.

• Follow the prompt to enter an email address; a window will appear to request a code

• You should receive the code from Privy.io in your email address; enter it into the window.

• You will then be asked to accept our terms and privacy policy. You may not use our interface if you do not accept these.

• Once accepted, your new wallet is connected and ready to trade once you’ve deposited funds.

Note that your use of this option is subject to Privy’s terms and privacy policy.

1. Connecting an existing wallet

If you already use a wallet like MetaMask, Phantom, Rabby, or any of the other supported wallets, you can connect it to trade[XYZ] and trade using existing funds you hold.

To connect your existing wallet:

• Click “Connect Wallet” in the upper right or in the order ticket window and choose your wallet from the list of supported options.

• Your wallet extension/app will prompt you to approve the connection to trade[XYZ].

• Once connected, you will then be asked to sign a transaction to verify control of that wallet.

• You will then be asked to accept our terms and privacy policy. You may not use our interface if you do not accept these.

• Once accepted, ensure you are on the Hyperliquid network (your wallet interface may switch it automatically or prompt you).

• In order to begin trading, you will need to Deposit funds. You will need to click “Deposit to Get Started” and deposit funds.

• Once funds are deposited, you may see the deposit button change to "Enable Trading." If so, you will need to click this button and sign a confirmation to enable trading on the interface.

• You will then be fully connected and ready to trade. Your Wallet address and balances will be visible in the app.
