How to Supply

1. Connect Your Wallet

To begin supplying assets, first connect either:

• an EVM wallet (e.g., MetaMask, Rabby), or
• a Polkadot.js wallet

Connecting a wallet creates and controls your Chainflip State Chain account.

This does not pull assets from your wallet — it only authenticates your account.

2. Deposit Assets Into Your Account

Before you can supply to a lending pool, you must first fund your State Chain account (same flow used by Boost / LPs today).

1. Navigate to the Deposit section in the app.

2. Choose the asset you want to use for lending (e.g., USDC, USDT, BTC, SOL).

3. Chainflip will generate a native deposit channel for that asset:

   • USDC / USDT → deposit channel on Ethereum
   • BTC → deposit channel on Bitcoin
   • SOL → deposit channel on Solana

4. Send funds to the deposit address from any wallet or exchange.

   • You do not need to connect the wallet that holds the funds.
   • Once the deposit confirms, the balance appears inside your State Chain account.

After the deposit arrives, your account balance is ready to be supplied into the lending pool.

3. Supply to a Lending Pool

Once your balance is visible:

1. Navigate to Lending → Supply
2. Choose the asset you deposited
3. Enter the amount you want to supply from your State Chain account balance
4. Confirm the transaction

The supplied amount moves from your account balance → the lending pool.

4. Begin Earning Yield

Once you have supplied assets:

• Your deposit becomes part of the lending pool
• Yield accrues only when borrowers create loans
• Interest distribution updates every 10 blocks
• Incentives (if active) may still accrue even when utilisation is zero
• You can withdraw at any time (outside rare safety pauses)

Supplying is permissionless and requires no additional setup.
