HushChat Beta Guide

HushChat Beta Guide

Ask somebody for their HushChat zaddr

They click the button that says "zs1" and it will copy it to their clipboard. Give every contact a different zaddr!

When you know a HushChat zaddr, send a contact request

Make sure you have funds! Send yourself funds 3+ times or with 3+ outputs in one transaction, so you have multiple "notes" to spend. This means you can send another memo before waiting for a confirmation. If you don't, you will need to wait for 1 confirmation every time, before sending.

Click the "add contact" button at the top left, and "Send Contact Request" screen will show up.

  • Choose a name
  • Enter zaddr
  • Choose an avatar (custom avatars coming soon)
  • Add a custom memo introducing yourself
  • Click "create new address" to make a custom new zaddr for this contact
  • Click "Add contact and send request"
  • Close "send contact request" window (this will autoclose in the future)

If you sent a request, be patient!

It may take a few minutes. This process will be twice as fast come November 2020 at Block 340,000, when our block time decreases to 75 seconds.

Once your contact has accepted

And you get a response, now you can type encrypted memos back and forth and enjoy a bit of privacy 😎
