# Get Started

Before depositing into a Brink Vault, make sure you’re fully prepared. Here are a few things you’ll need:

**1. Wallet Setup**

* Brink currently supports wallets like **MetaMask**, **Rabby**, and other EVM-compatible wallets.
* Make sure your wallet is connected to the **Mantle** or **Base** network.
* Ensure your wallet is updated to the latest version for smooth interaction.

**2. Supported Assets**

* Available Vaults accept: **WMNT, WETH, USDe** on **Mantle**, and **USDC** on **Base**.
* Make sure you hold the correct token for the Vault you want to enter.

**3. Gas Fees**

Keep a small balance of the native token of the chain (**MNT** on Mantle, **ETH** on Base) to pay for transaction fees.
