# Direct messaging

Chimpx includes direct messages inside the app.

You can message other wallets without leaving the platform.

### How to start

You can open a conversation from:

* a public profile
* your inbox

### What messaging is for

Direct messages help users:

* connect with creators
* ask questions before buying
* follow up after a launch

### What to expect

Your inbox shows conversations, unread activity, and recent messages.

Messages are tied to wallet identity, so public reputation still matters.

{% hint style="warning" %}
A wallet can be real and still be risky. Never treat a message as an endorsement from Chimpx.
{% endhint %}

### Safety tips

* never share seed phrases
* avoid clicking random links
* double-check usernames, wallets, and socials

### Next steps

Read [Safety and risks](/safety-and-risks.md) for more on staying safe.
