Getting started on Blurt: guides and account safety

Creating an account is only the first step toward using Blurt. Newcomers often ask what the account keys are for, how to publish their first post and why some blockchain actions carry fees. We have gathered these answers in our Blurt knowledge base.

Begin with account security

Start with our account creation guide and the explanation of owner, active and posting keys. The owner key grants sensitive account-management permissions and should be kept especially secure. Everyday publishing should use the appropriate, more limited permissions.

Next, learn how to publish. Posts can contain headings, lists, links and images through Markdown. For specific formatting examples, see images and Markdown.

What comes after your first post?

Explore voting and comments, fees and Blurt Power, and ways to connect with other authors. Rewards are not guaranteed; they depend on blockchain mechanics and community activity.

Each guide has a dedicated URL and a language-specific edition, so sharing a focused answer is easier than linking everyone to a generic list.
