Link Qtum mainnet wallet
This will be the address we pay your rewards to, so make sure you do not discard the wallet you are using. You can get a Qtum Main Network address from many wallet providers (like Ledger or Qtum QT) or from an exchange, or you can simply generate one at https://wallet.qtumbridge.org using the Qtum Metamask Snap extension you just installed for this event. Make sure you do not put a Qtum Testnet Address into this field, as you will not receive your funds from this event unless it's Qtum Main Network.
