Creating a Channel

Once you have Maiar installed, EGLD for Gas and KVRI for engaging you can create your channel. It is recommended that you create a channel even if you do not plan to create content. This gives your profile a persona and unlocks added features like user rewards and staking.

In the menu, click "Account" and navigate to your channel. If it is your first time you will be prompted to add the channel details you would like to best describe yourself. You can upload a profile picture and any data you would like other users to know about your channel. When ready, click "Create Channel" and you will send this data to the smart contract to store your channel on the blockchain. This requires sending a transaction, once clicked you will be prompted to "Open Maiar to Sign Transaction". This means navigating to the Maiar App and click "Sign Transaction". Once signed the transaction is sent to the blockchain and will be processed.
