# getting started

This guide explains how to use HyperPot on HyperEVM mainnet.

{% stepper %}
{% step %}

## Open The App

Go to:

```
https://hyperpot.vercel.app
```

{% endstep %}

{% step %}

## Connect Your Wallet

Click `Connect`.

If your wallet is not on HyperEVM mainnet, the app will ask your wallet to switch or add the network.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

## Get HYPE

You need native HYPE on HyperEVM mainnet to enter a round.

Only deposit amounts you are comfortable risking.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

## Enter A Round

In the `Enter Round` panel:

1. Choose an amount.
2. Review your estimated win chance.
3. Click `Enter Pot`.
4. Confirm the transaction in your wallet.

Your deposit becomes part of the current round.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

## Wait For The Round To Close

A round can close in two ways:

* The pot reaches the cap.
* The timer expires and the keeper triggers the next action.

If at least two unique players joined, the round can draw a winner.

If only one unique player joined, the round is cancelled and that player is refunded through the claim flow.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

## Claim Winnings Or Refunds

Open the wallet dropdown in the top-right.

If you have claimable HYPE, you will see it under `Claimable Amount`.

Click `Claim` and confirm the transaction.
{% endstep %}
{% endstepper %}

{% hint style="warning" %}

## Mainnet Beta Reminder

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://hyperpot.gitbook.io/hyperpot-docs/getting-started.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
