What is Detalk?
Address channels, onchain messages, and the difference between protocol facts and product views.
One address, one public channel
A channel is derived from an EVM chain ID and a target wallet address. Nobody needs to create that basic channel. The address owner may later claim it to publish a name, rules, membership terms, posting gates, and moderation policy.
Chain first
Canonical messages and protocol state are emitted as events. An indexer improves speed, search, notifications, and link previews, but it is a rebuildable cache. If it disappears, a compatible client can replay the event history.
Chat, not a social feed
The interface is optimized for chronological conversation. New messages appear at the bottom; replies remain independent messages with a reference to their parent. Editing a parent does not silently rewrite the quote snapshot already shown in an older reply.
What Detalk is not
- It is not private messaging. Onchain content is public and durable.
- It does not promise free transactions. Ordinary posting has no protocol fee, but the sender pays network Gas unless a sponsorship policy applies.
- It does not promise an airdrop or investment return.
