### Important Notes Regarding Wallet Connection

* Nexapia uses [**WalletConnect**](https://docs.walletconnect.network/) to securely connect your wallet to the platform. Make sure your wallet supports WalletConnect and is up to date.
* **To make swaps, manage positions, or interact** with platform features, **wallet connection is required**.
* If the **"CONNECT"** button doesn’t respond:
  * Refresh the page.
  * Switch to a different network in your wallet and then switch back to the **Flare Network**.
* Always double-check you are on the **official website**:\
  [**https://fpex-v3.nexapia.xyz/**](https://fpex-v3.nexapia.xyz/) — stay safe and avoid phishing attempts.
* For this demonstration, we’ll be using [**MetaMask**](https://metamask.io/) as the example wallet, although other wallet applications such as [**Bifrost**](https://bifrostwallet.com/) function in a similar way.
