How X2 Social works

Getting started

Open the app and choose Connect with Wallet. Any wallet, on any chain. Your wallet is your account: no email, no phone number, no password.

• Connect your wallet and approve the request in it.
• Choose your social name.
• Secure your messages with one signature (or a passphrase, if your wallet asks for one).
• Start writing.

One wallet belongs to one social name. Disconnect simply leaves this device; your account stays.

X2 Social is for personal wallets. Exchange wallets cannot be connected.

Your social name

Your social name is how people find you and how you appear in conversations. 3 to 20 letters, numbers or _ . Every name is unique. You can change it once every 30 days.

Your social name, profile photo and wallet address are public and view only. People can reach you by your social name or by your wallet address. When someone writes to your wallet address, X2 shows them your social name.

Messaging

Conversations, groups and broadcasts between X2 users are free.

• Conversations: one-to-one.
• Groups: up to 50 people, by social name.
• Broadcasts: one message to up to 100 people, delivered privately to each.

Messages can be up to 20,000 characters, and you can attach files.

In any conversation or group you can block a person, or report a message they sent you. The person is not told.

Writing to a wallet not on X2

You can write to any personal wallet address, even if its owner has not joined yet. The first message to that wallet costs $1 from your X2 balance. Every later message to the same wallet is free.

The $1 fee is burned.

Your message waits, secured, until the owner connects. They then pick up the whole conversation.

Nothing reaches their wallet until they connect, unless you add a knock. A knock is how they notice.

If you paste the wallet address of someone already on X2, X2 opens a free conversation with their social name, unless their privacy settings do not allow it.

Knocks

A knock is an optional payment that comes with a one-to-one message. It lands in the recipient’s own wallet with a short note, so they know a message is waiting.

• Recommended when writing to a wallet that is not on X2 yet.
• You choose a whole-dollar amount, from the recipient’s smallest knock up to $20. Each person sets their smallest knock: $5, $10 or $15. For wallets not on X2 it is $5.
• The recipient receives 75% of the knock in their wallet’s own coin. X2 keeps 25%.
• X2 pays the network fee. You pay only the knock amount.
• Paid from your X2 balance.

If a knock cannot be delivered right now, X2 tells you before anything is charged: try again later, or send without a knock. If a knock fails after it was charged, the full amount returns to your X2 balance.

Your X2 balance

Your X2 balance pays for first messages to new wallets and for knocks. It is held in $XTWO and shown in $XTWO and US dollars.

• Add funds: open Balance, choose a network and send to your own deposit address. Some networks also show a tag or comment. Always include it, or the deposit cannot be matched to you.
• Accepted: each network’s main coin, plus USDC and USDT where shown.
• Minimum $5 per deposit. A deposit under $5 is recorded but not credited, and it cannot be returned.
• Suggested maximum $100 per top-up. Larger amounts are still credited.
• The amount is converted to $XTWO at the market price when it arrives. The network fee for sending is yours.
• Usually credited within minutes. Sometimes it shows “Arriving shortly” and takes up to 4 hours.

Your X2 balance can only be used inside X2. It cannot be withdrawn, transferred or exchanged for money. Funds can come from any wallet you own, including an exchange account.

You do not need to buy $XTWO yourself. X2 converts what you send.

Privacy and control

You control who can reach you. In Settings › Privacy settings you choose who can message you, add you to groups and add you to broadcasts: Everyone, Following, Friends or Nobody. You also set your smallest knock, and who can see your followers, who you follow and your friends.

Messages and files are encrypted on your device before they are sent. That includes messages to wallets that have not joined yet: they stay secured until the owner connects and picks up the conversation.

Your social name and wallet address are always public and view only. Seeing them only lets people find you and write to you, within your privacy settings.

Security

Securing your messages takes one signature from your wallet. Use the same wallet on another device and your messages open there too.

Some wallets cannot repeat the same signature. They use a passphrase instead (12 characters or more). X2 cannot open or reset your passphrase. If you lose it, your messages cannot be recovered.

Every 7, 30 or 90 days (you choose; 30 by default), X2 asks you to connect your wallet again.

X2 Social never asks for your recovery phrase or passphrase. Never share them.

Sending limits

Each account can make up to 120 posts an hour and 600 a day, shared across messaging and the Wall. A group message or a broadcast counts as one post. See Sending limits for details.

Social Wall

Coming soon: free posting within the shared limits.

• Everything on the Wall is public: posts, comments and replies.
• Only the creator of a post sees its likes and dislikes.
• Before posting, a creator can turn off comments, turn off likes and dislikes, and mark a post AI-generated or 18+.
• There are no reposts.
• In Settings › Wall settings you can hide posts with keywords you choose, 18+ content and AI-generated content.

Safety and compliance

Like other responsible services, X2 checks wallets against international sanctions lists. This is routine and does not affect normal use. A wallet on one of these lists cannot be used on X2, and funds sent from it are held and not added to a balance.

X2 does not allow fraud, scams or other crime. You can block anyone and report a message in any chat. Sending limits slow down mass messaging, and reports are reviewed.

Messages stay end-to-end encrypted. Safety checks look only at wallet addresses and activity counts, never at what you write. Reporting or blocking does not change that: a report contains only what you choose to send.

Burns and transparency

Every $1 fee for a first message to a new wallet is burned: sent back to the $XTWO issuer, which is locked so no one can ever create more. Totals and each burn are public on the Transparency page.
