If you don't have one yet, the [Get Started](https://hash-ly.com/onboarding) page walks you through three steps: 1. **Create a wallet** β€” HashPack or Kabila, as a browser extension or a phone app 2. **Get some HBAR** β€” it pays the network fee on every transaction 3. **Make a first swap** β€” on a decentralised exchange > πŸ’‘ Browsing needs no wallet. The calendar, markets, news and every other page can be read without connecting. *** ## Step 2: πŸ”— Connect and Sign In Click **Connect** at the bottom of the sidebar (on a phone, open **Menu** first), choose your wallet and sign the **"Sign in to Hashly"** message. Signing it creates no transaction, so it costs nothing. The details are in [Connect Your Wallet](/hashly-docs/getting-started/connect-wallet.md). *** ## Step 3: πŸ” Find Your Way Around * πŸ–₯️ **Desktop:** the sidebar shows Home, Get Started, News and Calendar, then the **Markets**, **Rewards** and **Community** groups * πŸ“± **Phone:** the bottom tab bar has **Home**, **Calendar**, **Missions**, **Staking** and **Menu** * ⌨️ **Search:** press **⌘K** (Ctrl+K) or **/**, click **Search** at the top of the sidebar, or tap πŸ” on a phone With the search box empty you get shortcuts to Home, Calendar, Markets, Ecosystem, Mindshare, News, Season Pass, Missions and Get Started. Type two or more characters to search events, ecosystem projects, tokens, NFT collections and articles at once. Use ↑ ↓ to move, Enter to open and Esc to close. *** ## Step 4: πŸ“… Explore the Calendar The [Calendar](https://hash-ly.com/calendar) lists NFT mints, meetups, hackathons, X Spaces and other events. It opens on upcoming events; the chips and **More filters** change the type, state, source and sort order. See [Events Calendar](/hashly-docs/discover/events-calendar.md). *** ## Step 5: ⭐ Give Your First Star Open an event and press **Give a Star**, or star a token or NFT collection on [Markets](https://hash-ly.com/markets) and a project on [Ecosystem](https://hash-ly.com/ecosystem). * Each star is worth **1**, plus **1 per Dragon** and **5 for El Santuario** * You have **5 votes a day** (20 with an active Hashly Premium), shared across everything you can vote on * Votes reset at **00:00 UTC** and every one is recorded on HCS See [Voting System](/hashly-docs/discover/voting-system.md). *** ## Step 6: 🎯 Complete Missions The [Missions](https://hash-ly.com/missions) page tracks daily, weekly and season missions. A few of the daily ones: | Mission | What to do | XP | | ----------------- | -------------------------------- | ------ | | πŸ“† Daily Check-in | Log in | **5** | | πŸ—³οΈ Cast a Vote | Vote on at least 1 event today | **10** | | πŸ”₯ Active Voter | Vote on 3 different events today | **50** | Completed missions are credited automatically when you open the Missions page, and your XP counts toward the season on the [Season Pass](https://hash-ly.com/season-pass). See [Missions & XP](/hashly-docs/rewards/missions.md). *** ## Step 7: 🧭 Explore More * πŸ“ˆ [**Markets**](https://hash-ly.com/markets) β€” live token and NFT data, and market cap comparisons * ♾️ [**Forever Mint**](https://hash-ly.com/forever-mint) β€” every live Forever Mint pool on Hedera * 🏒 [**Ecosystem**](https://hash-ly.com/ecosystem) β€” projects building on Hedera * 🧠 [**Mindshare**](https://hash-ly.com/mindshare) β€” where the community's attention is going * πŸ“° [**News**](https://hash-ly.com/news) β€” the latest from the ecosystem * ⚑ [**Staking**](https://hash-ly.com/staking) and 🎁 [**Raffles**](https://hash-ly.com/raffles) β€” earn and spend Embers * 🌍 [**HashWorld**](https://hash-ly.com/community) and πŸ›οΈ [**Museum**](https://hash-ly.com/museum) β€” the community side of Hashly > ⚠️ Prices, rankings, comparisons and mindshare scores are information, not financial advice, and much of the data comes from third parties. Do your own research before you act. See the [Terms of Use](https://hash-ly.com/terms). *** ## πŸ’‘ Tips 1. πŸ—“οΈ **Spend your votes before 00:00 UTC.** Unused votes don't carry over to the next day. 2. πŸ“… **Come back to events you support.** You can star the same event again every UTC day, and each star adds up. 3. πŸŽ™οΈ **Run X Spaces?** Ask to be added from the Top hosts panel on the calendar. Once an admin approves your account, your new Spaces are added automatically. 4. πŸ“ **Know an event that's missing?** [Submit it](/hashly-docs/for-event-organizers/submit-event.md). --- # Agent Instructions This documentation is published with GitBook.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter: ``` GET https://hashly.gitbook.io/hashly-docs/getting-started/quick-start.md?ask=&goal= ``` `ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language. `goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal. The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation. Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
