# Solana IDO Participation - Guide on DegenPad

This is a step-by-step guide on participating in Solana IDOs on DegenPad. **Please read the entire guide carefully before contacting our customer support team with questions.**

**PLEASE NOTE:** In order to participate please ensure you switch your network to Solana and connect the correct wallet. Please view our guide [here](broken://spaces/jaaFgrSBa0hjVTAJ29Aw).

### **Step #1:** 

To join IDOs on Solana, you must connect your EVM wallet that you usually use for IDOs and your Solana wallet using Phantom Wallet (it will automatically be connected and paired to your account; you won't have to pass a KYC or do anything else besides connecting your wallet).

On your Phanton wallet:  go to settings -> preferences -> default app wallet -> Always ask

This step is required to ensure you can connect correctly and don't pick Metamask or Phanton by default to sign.

### **Step #2:** 

**Hold at least** 0.01 USDT and 0.01 SOL in your Phantom wallet. 

### **Step #3:** 

Once your Phantom wallet is connected, you must add your sub-wallets that can receive USDT on Solana (in case you choose to receive a refund) and a sub-wallet that can receive the IDO token. Adding those wallets is pretty easy, and there's a step-by-step guide below with screenshots of how to do it on desktop or mobile (please view the step-by-step guide).

### **Step #4:** 

Register interest in IDO.
