TipChain is a community-built onchain creator tipping platform for the Hemi Network. It helps you support creators directly using onchain tips — no middlemen, no extra fees.

This guide shows you, step-by-step, how to [connect your wallet, create a profile, find creators, and send tips](https://docs.hemi-tipchain.xyz/quickstart).
