### **Add your Wallet Address**

Adding your [wallet address](https://docs.autonomi.com/token/using-autonomi-tokens/holding/compatible-wallets) allows you to hold anything your node earns, and be rewarded for it. The more data your nodes store serve, and the longer and more reliably they do it, the more they will earn.
