Getting started
What you need#
- A Solana wallet that supports message signing through Wallet Standard, such as a browser extension or a mobile wallet’s built-in browser. Veyragram lists the wallets your browser makes available.
- Nothing else: no email address, phone number or fee. Signing in costs nothing and moves no funds.
Veyragram runs on one Solana network at a time (the sign-in screen names it, for example devnet or mainnet-beta). Your wallet must be on the same network.
Sign in#
- Open Veyragram and choose Open Veyragram.
- Pick your wallet and approve the connection.
- Your wallet shows a short sign-in message naming this site. Read it, then sign. It is not a transaction.
- Your browser creates its own encryption keys for this device. They never leave the browser.
You land on an empty chat list with two ways to begin: start a conversation, or explore rooms. More detail is in Signing in and devices.
Send your first message#
- Choose New conversation and paste the other person’s wallet address.
- Veyragram tells you whether that address has an account and accepts messages from people it hasn’t talked to.
- Write your message and send. If you haven’t talked before, it arrives as a message request: you can send up to three messages until they accept.
To join a community instead, open Explore, pick a room and join. Rooms that require holdings say so before you join; see Token-gated rooms.
Install it#
- On a computer: in Chrome or Edge, use Install Veyragram in the address bar or the browser menu.
- On a phone: use Add to Home Screen from your browser’s share menu.
- In Telegram: if this server has a Telegram bot, open the Mini App from it. See Telegram.
The installed app needs a connection: you can read what is already loaded, but sending waits until you are back online.
Next#
- Set a display name under Settings → Profile (optional; otherwise people see a shortened address).
- Compare safety codes with people you talk to about sensitive things: Encryption and safety codes.
- Choose Day or Night mode and a colour theme under Settings → Appearance.
