On Uniswap, you can swap Ethereum for another token.
But before you can do so, you need to connect a wallet to Uniswap first.
Then, you’ll be able to use your wallet’s Ethereum to swap for another token.
Uniswap allows you to connect to several wallets including “MetaMask” and “WalletConnect”.
However, you might have noticed that there isn’t a “Trust Wallet” option.
Moreover, in June 2021, Trust Wallet has removed the DApp browser.
This is in compliance with Apple’s App Store Guidelines.
Hence, you won’t be able to use the DApp browser on Trust Wallet.
Instead, you need to use Uniswap on a browser like Safari or Chrome.
