As a blockchain focused on interoperability, one of our core missions is to build sustainable and engaging cross-chain communities. We envision a world where users from diverse backgrounds can come together and contribute to the future of blockchain, crypto, and Web3. To help us achieve this goal, we’ve expanded the scope of ICON’s Discord to the entire BTP ecosystem, which consists of ICON, Polkadot, Kusama, Harmony, Binance Smart Chain, NEAR Protocol, and more.

As part of our strategy to build a dynamic community, we’ve designed an address registration bot which lets users submit wallet addresses for supported networks. From time to time, registered users will be able to participate in special events such as giveaways, quizzes, NFT mints, and more. While registering your address(es) is not required to become a full-fledged member of the ICON Discord, we highly recommend doing so to maximize the value of your Discord membership.

Supported Networks

The mICON Discord Bot currently supports the following networks for address registration:

  • ICON
  • Polkadot
  • Harmony

To register an address, you’ll first need to enable DMs in Discord. To do so, go to Preferences > Privacy & Safety. In the section titled “Server Privacy Defaults”, enable “Allow direct messages from server members”.

Next, start a DM conversation with the mICON bot (mICON#9635) and use the /register-address slash command. If you’ve never used a slash command, all you need to do is start typing /register-address and you’ll see the slash command menu pop up like so:

The /register-address command has two parameters – network and address. To navigate between the two parameters, you can use your space bar, tab key, or left/right arrow keys.
