You can open the side-bar menu at the top-right corner of the UI (https://trade.bluefin.io/swap) to display your accounts. The Spot account will show the tokens you have in your wallet and the positions you're currently providing liquidity to in the "Pools" section.
In Bluefin's Spot CLMM you'll be able to swap any assets available in our Liquidity Pools or routed through our external aggregator, however, in order to trade on Bluefin Perps (Bluefin's orderbook-based exchange for leveraged Futures trading) you'll be required to have wUSDC (USDC bridged from Ethereum through Wormhole) as this is the main asset supported as collateral for your trades. So before switching to your perpetuals account make sure to swap any asset you have for wUSDC in the desired amount.
Once you have wUSDC you can start trading on https://trade.bluefin.io. If you're connecting for the first time to the platform you'll be prompted to sign an on-boarding message with your wallet, after which you'll be able to deposit your wUSDC into Bluefin's margin bank contracts and view your Perpetuals Account balance in the wallet side-bar (just like the screenshot below). Only the deposited funds will be available for trading, so users can efficiently manage both their Spot and Perps accounts with independent capital allocated to each.
