Its wallet, launches, and fees hang off that account alone. ## Wallet authority is not based on usernames An account is tied to a provider's stable, immutable identifier — not to a display name, handle, or username that can change hands. Your `@handle` or cast name is shown so a reply reads naturally; it is never what STONKFUNBOT uses to decide whose wallet to sign with. If a handle is renamed or reassigned, it does not carry a wallet with it. ## Linking a social account Registration happens privately, on the website. Once your account exists there, you can link an X or Farcaster identity to it from your dashboard. After linking, mentions or casts from that identity are recognized as belonging to your account. A public message from an unlinked identity never creates an account — it's told to link one privately instead. ## Custody STONKFUNBOT holds your wallet's private key, encrypted at rest, so it can sign on your account's behalf. **This is custody**, and these docs describe it as exactly that — not as non-custodial. What this buys you in exchange: * A key is only ever used for the account that owns it — users don't share wallets or custody state. * Wallet secrets are encrypted at rest under a key that lives only in the server environment; the database stores ciphertext, not keys. * Wallet export is available where currently supported. Exporting is a copy, not a handover — the platform keeps signing for your account afterward, so taking a backup costs you nothing. ## Balances and addresses stay private Your address and balance are shown to you in your own dashboard, and nowhere else. A reply on a public surface is built so it never carries them — see [Privacy](/understanding-the-system/privacy.md). ## A note on funds Fund your wallet with what an upcoming action needs, rather than treating it as long-term storage. See [Funding](/using-stonkfunbot/funding.md). --- # 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.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter: ``` GET https://docs.stonkfun.bot/using-stonkfunbot/accounts-and-wallets.md?ask=&goal= ``` `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.
