what is this
a tiny blockchain. one token, $HONK. one way to earn it: post something to your friends. no trading, no utility, no roadmap. a bit.
more formally: every post is a signed transaction. blocks are produced every ~60s. each valid post mints 10 HONKs to the author, +5 if it has a pic. you can lay HONKs on a friend (an "egg") or react to a friend's post (an "echo"), which tips them 1 HONK.
how to join the flock
- click launch the app (or the button above)
- at the password prompt, enter one of the passwords. if you don't know any, ask whoever sent you this link.
- pick a display name + a passphrase, hatch your key
- copy your pubkey and send it to whoever invited you here
- they'll send you back a voucher. paste it, hit HONK YOUR WAY IN, wait ~60 seconds
- you're in. +10 HONK per post from here on out.
