# Step 1. Delegate

In this step, you will use the [delegate](https://cyberbrokers.com/delegate) page on the CyberBrokers website to connect your cold wallet containing CyberBrokers assets to a hot wallet address. This enables you to access the utility of your assets stored in the cold wallet using the hot wallet address. This process needs to be done only once. After that, you can access your assets through the CyberBrokers platform and any third-party platforms that support delegate.cash now or in the future. 

### Requirements:

* A browser with access to your cold wallet (it is recommended to use a computer rather than a mobile device)
* The Ethereum address or ENS name of a pre-created hot wallet

### **Instructions:**

1. Go to the CyberBrokers [delegate](https://cyberbrokers.com/delegate) page<br>
