### Step 1: Open the Wallet Manager

First, click on the **Wallet Manager** located in the top right corner of the ALEX Lab homepage. This is where you’ll manage all your wallet connections.

### Step 2: Choose the Blockchain and Wallet

By default, the ALEX Lab homepage opens the **Stacks Swap**, so the **Wallet Manager** will display wallets for the **Stacks Chain**. For the **Bitcoin Chain**, click on the slider in the top left corner to open the [Bitcoin Swap](https://app.alexlab.co/bitcoin/swap).

In the Wallet Manager, select the blockchain you are using (e.g., **Stacks Chain**, **Bitcoin Chain** or **EVM Chain**), then choose the wallet that you want to connect. Supported wallets include Leather, Xverse, OKX and others.

For this example we will choose **Stacks Chain** and **Leather** wallet, but the steps are roughly equal for all supported wallets.

### Step 3: Enter Your Password

After selecting your wallet, you will be prompted to enter your wallet’s password.

### Step 4: Select Your Account

Once the password is entered, choose the specific account you want to connect. This account will be used for executing transactions on the bridge.

### Step 5: Confirm Your Connection

Once the wallet is successfully connected, you will notice the icon in the top right corner of the screen, confirming that your wallet has been successfully linked.

{% hint style="info" %}
Keep in mind that, for bridging, you will need to connect wallets for both the source and destination blockchains (e.g., Stacks, Bitcoin, and EVM). Once connected, you will see the respective blockchain icons in the top right corner of the app.
