**EVM wallet**

To get started on Monday Trade, you'll first need to set up a Monad-compatible wallet e.g. OKX, Rabby, Backpack, and Phantom, HaHa.

If you don’t have a wallet, you can set one up easily [here](https://rabby.io/). After downloading a wallet extension for your browser, create a new wallet.

Your wallet has a secret recovery phrase, private key, and a password. Anyone with access to these can access and/or steal your funds. Ensure to write and store the phrase in a secure place.
