Ready is a one-stop access to communication and crypto asset management.

Ready is a messaging app where you only need a wallet address to log in (o phone number or any personal information required). Conversations (including private groups & channels) are end-to-end encrypted by default, and we give you a randomly generated pseudonym for full anonymity. Besides multi-chain crypto management, we also offer other features such as transacting via 1-1 chats and smart swaps (i.e. DEX aggregator).
