Sending limits
Version 2.2 · 10 November 2026
How much you can send, so X2 stays fast and free of spam.
1. Posts
- 120 posts an hour and 600 a day per account, shared across messaging and the Wall.
- Every message counts as one post: a one-to-one message, a group message or a broadcast (however many people receive it).
- Counts start again at the top of each hour and at the start of each day (UTC).
2. Messages
- Up to 20,000 characters per message.
- Groups: up to 50 people. Broadcasts: up to 100 recipients. X2 users only.
- First message to a wallet not on X2: $1 from your X2 balance. Later messages to that wallet are free.
3. Files
- Up to 5 files per message, up to 100 MB each.
- Up to 1 GB of files a day per account.
- Files are encrypted on your device and free to send.
4. Knocks
- Optional, one-to-one only. Whole dollars from the recipient’s smallest knock ($5, $10 or $15; $5 for wallets not on X2) up to $20.
5. X2 balance
- Minimum $5 per deposit (under $5 is not credited and cannot be returned).
- Suggested maximum $100 per top-up (larger amounts are still credited).
6. When you reach a limit
The app tells you. Try again in the next hour, or the next day (UTC). Nothing is charged for a post that was refused. We may lower limits for accounts that break the Acceptable Use Policy.
