# Wallet Setup Nibiru Chain

To interact with the protocol, you need to connect a **Nibiru-compatible wallet**. This is your gateway to deposits, borrowing, and rewards.

#### Why it matters

Without connecting your wallet, you cannot:

* Supply collateral.
* Borrow funds.
* Claim rewards.

Your wallet is also where you hold **NIBI tokens**, which are required to pay for gas fees on the Nibiru chain.

#### How to use it

1. Click **Connect Wallet** in the top right of the app.
2. Select your Nibiru-supported wallet.
3. Approve the connection request.
4. Make sure you have:
   * **NIBI tokens** for gas fees.
   * Assets you want to lend or borrow.
