Wallet Setup Guide
Complete Guide to Getting Started with Phantom, Solflare & MetaMask
Introduction
To earn $SiCiCoin tokens while playing SiCierto games, you can connect using several wallet options. This guide walks you through setting up Phantom, Solflare, or MetaMask wallets.
Important: $SiCiCoin tokens are on the Solana blockchain. While you can connect with MetaMask (Ethereum) to earn points, you will need a Solana wallet (Phantom or Solflare) to claim actual $SiCiCoin tokens on-chain.
