  • Updated

You can use your CASH stablecoin in some DeFi apps, such as Kamino.  when CASH is in your main Phantom wallet. DeFi apps cannot use funds that are still in your Cash account.

Before you start

Make sure you understand where your funds are before connecting to a DeFi app:

  • CASH is the stablecoin that appears in your main Phantom wallet balance.
  • Your Cash account balance must be withdrawn to your main Phantom wallet before a DeFi app can use it.
  • When connecting to a DeFi app, choose the Phantom account that holds CASH.

Important: DeFi apps are third-party services. Phantom does not control their availability, APY, rewards, deposits, withdrawals, or product terms. Review the app carefully before connecting your wallet or depositing funds.
