Surprise Your Loved Ones with A Crypto Box in Portkey: Sharing and Receiving Made Fun and Simple

Blog Image

Dear Portkey community members,

Portkey is thrilled to unveil an exciting new feature in the Portkey App — the “crypto box.” Unlike traditional direct transfers, the crypto box introduces a delightful way for users to send cryptocurrencies as gifts, imbued with an essence of surprise and blessings. What makes this feature even more exciting is its versatility. Crypto boxes can be sent directly to individuals or shared within groups. With functions like sending crypto boxes with random amounts, this feature is anticipated to spark a trend of joyful sharing and receiving among all Portkey users.

As the new year approaches, why not seize your Portkey and add a touch of surprise to your friends? Read on to discover how to send and receive crypto boxes in Portkey!

Sending Crypto Boxes between Individuals

Sending a crypto box to an individual is easy. Open the chat window, click the paper clip icon at the bottom left corner, and select “Crypto Box.” Choose the desired token type and specify the amount. Before hitting the “Send Crypto Box” button, don’t forget to add a personal touch by writing a memo or offering your blessings in the “Wishes” section.

Once sent, your crypto box will be visible in the chat window, awaiting the recipient’s discovery. If unclaimed within 24 hours, the tokens will automatically be returned to you, rendering the crypto box invalid.

Sending Crypto Boxes to Groups

Just like sending a crypto box in an individual chat, the crypto box feature in group chats lets you specify the type and amount of tokens to send, along with attaching a warm wish. However, it gets even more entertaining here, thanks to the customisable quantity and random amount design. Since group crypto boxes are visible to every member in the group and each can only claim the same crypto box once, the quantity you send directly determines if all members can enjoy a share.

Even more interestingly, you can switch tabs at the top and choose between sending crypto boxes with a “Random” or “Fixed” amount of tokens each. Opting for a fixed amount means the tokens you provide will be evenly distributed among the determined quantity, ensuring everyone gets an identical share. On the other hand, if you choose random, it really becomes a game of luck. A box containing 100 ELF to be claimed by two individuals could result in one claiming 99 and the other claiming 1. The element of surprise adds an extra layer of fun to the experience!

After sending group crypto boxes, you can join in the fun and claim one for yourself! If you’re curious to see who had the luckiest draw, all the details are available on the details page.

For your convenience, all transactions related to your crypto boxes can be easily tracked in the “Activity” section, accessible from the home screen. If you dislike missing out on crypto boxes or messages from others, simply turn on notifications and stay consistently tuned in to Portkey!

Along with this update, Portkey introduces subtle changes to the overall user interface and refines the flow of login and on-chain transfer processes, continuously optimising user experiences. Experience the joy of Portkey with entertaining crypto boxes now!
