# How To Link Your Wallets

### 1. **Link Your Wallets**

Linking your wallets is a crucial step when using **Whales Market**. It enables **cross-chain settlements**, ensures **accurate reward tracking**, and applies **staker fee discounts** across all supported networks.

Please follow the instructions carefully in this section.

### 2. Why linking your wallet is important

**1. Cross-Chain Settlement**

Imagine you are purchasing Runstone (on the Bitcoin Network) with SOL (on Solana). The linking of your Solana wallet and Bitcoin wallet will facilitate the settlement.

You will receive Runestone in the exact Bitcoin wallet linked with your Solana address that you are using to fill the order.

**2. User Incentives & Referral Rewards**

Whales Market calculates incentive and referral rewards based on your **total trading volume across 8+ supported networks**. Linking wallets allows the system to combine your activity from all networks, ensuring accurate reward distribution.

**3. Staking Program**

$WHALES stakers receive trading fees waivers, based on the amount of $xWhales they hold.

* Since trades can occur on **Solana, EVM-compatible blockchains, Bitcoin**, and more, all relevant wallets must be linked for the discount to apply across your activity.
* For more details, see: [*Discount for Stakers*](/staking-mechanism/discount-for-stakers.md).
