A Status Community is a virtual space for like-minded people to exchange ideas and collaborate.
There are different types of communities in Status, and the requirements to join them differ depending on the type. Some communities are open to everyone, while others require holding a specific token or approval by the community Owner.
- You must share at least one account address from your Status Wallet when joining a community. You can change the addresses you share at any time.
- The aggregated balance of the shared addresses must meet the token requirements of the community you want to join or the management role you are about to take. For example, if a community requires 100 SNT to join, you must hold at least 100 SNT across all shared addresses.
- After you request to join a community, you become a member immediately or you need to wait until the Owner accepts you if the community requires approval.
- For communities requiring join approval, you can view your request status or cancel your pending request on the community page.
- If the community Owner rejects you, you can send a new request to join the community.
When you join a community, you share one or more of your Status Wallet addresses. This action confirms you have the tokens for token-gated communities or channels, lets you participate in airdrops or fulfil a management role in the community.
No matter which type of community you want to join, you must share at least one Wallet account address (or address, for short) with the community control node. If you have only one address, it's automatically selected when joining the community and you can't unselect this address.
The addresses you share are stored in the community control node and never revealed to the community Owner or members. However, the community Owner might discover their member addresses indirectly.
To join token-gated communities, you must hold the required tokens by buying crypto or receiving them from others.
