Add a username, description and choose an image for your profile pic. The profile pic may take a few moments to show up. Because it shows with a circular crop, you may have to adjust your initial picture and add it again.

IMPORTANT When configuring your username, please don't use any special characters or spaces. It's also case-sensitive, so we recommend ALL LOWERCASE

Tezos Profiles (optional)​

Tezos Profiles is a 3rd party web application where users can associate their public online identity based on social media profiles and self-attested information to their Tezos address. Tezos Profiles is an extra layer of verification, and it's not required to complete your Teia profile information. It will only add icons confirming you control your Twitter account and wallet address.

IMPORTANT: _Tezos Profiles transaction costs 0.3 tez, so avoid doing this now, if you are a fountain receiver (you only have 0.5 tez) or are low on funds.

If Tezos Profiles seems too complicated, you can type your social media handles on your profile description and use your profile link (teia.art/yourusername) on your social media. This is a simple way to validate your identity.

Creating a Tezos Profile​

  • To create a Tezos Profile, visit the Tezos Profiles.
  • Connect your wallet (on mainnet). You will now be presented with available verifications that you can add to your Tezos Profile. Currently you can add verifications for twitter, discord and github accounts, for web domain and for an ethereum address. The more the better, but don't worry if you don't have all of these. Even the basic verification is useful and allows you to enter some information - username, description and 'logo' similar to the Teia profile), which will be used by other platforms.

NOTE - don't forget that if you change any of these, you should consider updating your tez profile (and your teia one).
