Wallet not connecting

Updated over a week ago

If your wallet isn’t connecting to Synthetix, don’t worry, this is a common issue and usually easy to fix.

Common Causes

  • Wallet app or extension not installed.

  • Wallet is installed but not unlocked.

  • Using a browser or device that isn’t supported.

  • Network mismatch (wallet not set to Ethereum Mainnet).

Steps to Fix

  1. Check your wallet is installed

    • For browser: make sure the Metamask, Coinbase Wallet, or other extension is added.

    • For hardware: make sure your Ledger or Trezor is plugged in and unlocked.

  2. Unlock your wallet

    • Open the wallet app or extension.

    • Enter your password or PIN.

  3. Refresh the page

    • Sometimes a quick refresh will trigger the connection popup.

  4. Check your network

    • Open your wallet and make sure it’s set to Ethereum Mainnet.

  5. Try another browser

    • Chrome or Brave usually work best.

    • Safari is often unsupported for wallet extensions.

If you are using your Mobile to view the platform try using using your wallet’s built-in browser to connect.

Still Not Working?

If you’ve tried all the above and your wallet still won’t connect:

  • Disconnect and reconnect your wallet.

  • Restart your browser or device.
