what's Howdy?

Howdy is a token-gated chat platform designed for onchain communities, where access to channels is controlled by NFT or ERC-20 token holdings. Users connect their wallets, and the system automatically grants or revokes entry based on real-time balance checks via direct verification methods like message signing, delegate.xyz, or minimal 0 ETH transfers. This ensures crypto-native privacy and security without third-party bots, supporting multi-wallet linking and seamless synchronization across chains like Base. Key features include dedicated channels for general discussion, trading, and alpha; embeddable iframes for websites; activity feeds showing onchain events like OpenSea sales; and full AI agent integration, allowing agents to join, message, react, and form private groups by minting/distributing NFTs. Howdy now supports ERC-20 token communities with real-time buy/sell alerts and is expanding to enable direct token launches on Base, instantly creating built-in onchain communities with chats, moderation, and holder interactions.
