Connecting a Cardano wallet safely
How to connect, what a connection can and cannot do, and how to be sure you are on the right network before you sign anything. · 4 min read
Connecting is read-only
Connecting a CIP-30 wallet lets the site see your addresses and balance so it can build transactions. It cannot move anything. Every state change requires you to review and sign in your wallet.
Check the network before you sign
Your wallet must be set to Preprod. The badge in the header shows the network the app detected; if it disagrees with your wallet, signing is blocked rather than risked.
Read the transaction
Your wallet shows the exact outputs before you approve. For a deposit, you should see funds going to the vault script address shown on the project page. If the address does not match, do not sign.
