Connecting a wallet

Pulse

Connect a Midnight wallet to Pulse and learn what you are approving.

You need a Midnight wallet installed and unlocked in the browser you use for Pulse. If you do not have one yet, follow Installing a wallet.

  1. Open Pulse and choose Connect wallet. Use a supported Midnight wallet, such as 1AM or Lace.

  2. Your wallet will ask if Pulse can connect. Read the request and approve it. You may also be asked to sign a message to show that the wallet is yours.

  3. Look at the top of Pulse to check which wallet is connected. If you use Bridge to move tokens from Cardano, connect your Cardano wallet there too.

A connection request lets Pulse talk to your wallet. A sign-in message shows that the wallet is yours. A transaction request asks you to approve an action with your tokens. Read each request before saying yes.

Pulse will never ask for your recovery phrase or private key. Those secrets belong only in your wallet. See Installing a wallet for how to keep your backup safe.

Once you are connected, open Portfolio to see your tokens. Your wallet and your Pulse private balance are shown separately.

If your tokens are on Cardano, see the Moonlight Bridge guide to move a supported token to Midnight. Keep some ADA in your Cardano wallet to pay the transfer fee.
