Getting started is simple:

• Go to solink.chat/app
• Click "Connect Wallet"
• Connect your Phantom wallet
• Approve the connection — you're in!

No registration, no email, no phone number required.

Currently, SOLink supports Phantom wallet — the most popular Solana wallet.

Support for additional wallets (Solflare, Backpack, etc.) is planned for future updates. Check our roadmap on the homepage.

To start a conversation:

• Enter a wallet address or @nickname in the search field
• Click the "New Chat" button (✏️) next to the result
• Start typing and hit Send!

Note: Currently you can only message wallets that have registered with SOLink. If someone hasn't connected yet, they won't appear in search.

A nickname is a human-readable name for your wallet address. Instead of sharing 7xKXtg2CW87d97..., you can share @alice.

To set your nickname: Profile → Nickname

Nicknames are unique and first-come-first-served.

Yes. SOLink uses end-to-end encryption (E2E) with NaCl cryptography (XSalsa20-Poly1305). This means:

• Messages are encrypted on your device before sending
• Only you and the recipient can read messages
• We cannot see your messages — even if we wanted to
• No backdoors, no exceptions

No, never. Your private keys stay in your Phantom wallet and never leave your device. We only see your public wallet address.

• Locally: Your message history is stored in your browser (IndexedDB)
• Temporarily on server: Encrypted messages wait on our server until delivered, then are deleted

We only store encrypted ciphertext — we can't read your messages.

Go to Settings → Backup & Restore:

• Create Backup: Exports your messages as an encrypted file (AES-256)
• Restore Backup: Import your messages on a new device

Set a strong password — without it, the backup cannot be restored.

The Token Scanner analyzes Solana tokens and provides security risk assessments powered by DFN Patrol. It checks:

• Contract security (mint authority, freeze authority)
• Liquidity status and top holders
• Social presence and community
• DEX payment status
• Potential rug pull indicators

Two ways:

• Scan tab: Open the Scan tab, paste a token mint address in the input field, and click Send
• In chat: Paste any token link (pump.fun, dexscreener, etc.) — it auto-generates a preview card

Use it as one data point, not the only source.

The scanner provides algorithmic analysis based on available data. It may not detect all risks. Always:

• Do your own research (DYOR)
• Check multiple sources
• Never invest more than you can afford to lose

Try these steps:

• Make sure your wallet extension is installed and unlocked
• Refresh the page and try again
• Check if you have multiple wallet extensions — disable conflicting ones
• Try a different browser (Chrome works best)
• Clear browser cache and cookies for solink.chat

If messages show "Sending..." but never deliver:

• Check your internet connection
• Refresh the page
• Make sure you're still connected to your wallet
• Try disconnecting and reconnecting your wallet

Check these settings:

• Make sure notifications are enabled in SOLink Settings
• Check browser notification permissions for solink.chat
• On mobile: check system notification settings
• Notifications only work when the app is closed or in background

Chat history is stored locally in your browser. If you:

• Cleared browser data: History is lost unless you have a backup
• Using a new device: Use Restore Backup if you have one
• Using incognito/private mode: Data is deleted when you close the window

Tip: Create regular backups in Settings → Backup & Restore
