# connect your account and wallet

## connect your account and wallet

your trover profile links your sign-in identity, x identity, and the wallet used for onchain actions.

{% stepper %}
{% step %}

#### open account

go to **account** in the trover web app and choose a privy sign-in method.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

#### link x and a wallet

link your x account if you want to send commands by mention or dm. then connect the evm wallet you want trover to use.

trover only accepts a wallet that belongs to the authenticated privy user.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

#### choose your active wallet

make the intended wallet canonical for trading. if you have more than one linked wallet, check the address carefully before you continue.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

#### choose how actions are signed

an external wallet normally asks you to sign manually. a compatible embedded wallet may support delegated execution when that capability is enabled.

delegation does not remove trover’s policy checks. it does mean an allowed action may be submitted without a new wallet prompt.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

#### set your x controls

enable public mentions, dms, or both. these controls are independent, so you can disable one surface without disconnecting your account.
{% endstep %}
{% endstepper %}

### bridge preferences

the account page also lets you set default destination and refund addresses for bridge requests. request-specific addresses may override those defaults when custom recipients are enabled.

{% hint style="warning" %}
check every linked address. a transaction sent to the wrong wallet or network may not be recoverable.
{% endhint %}

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.trover.tech/getting-started/connect-your-account-and-wallet.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
