Question 1

Do I need to create an account?

Accepted Answer

No. Your Solana wallet is your account. Connect once and you can upload, sell, and manage content immediately — no email or password required.

Question 2

What wallets are supported?

Accepted Answer

Monerixa supports any Solana-compatible wallet — Phantom, Solflare, Backpack, MetaMask, Trust Wallet, and more. Ledger hardware wallets work when connected through a supported wallet app (e.g. Phantom or Solflare). Make sure you have a compatible wallet extension or mobile app installed, and that you have SOL (for gas) and USDC on the correct network.

Question 3

What can I sell?

Accepted Answer

Files (PDFs, videos, archives, images, code — up to 100 MB), text content (articles, notes, prompts, code snippets — up to 50,000 characters), and links (private URLs, invite links, Google Drive links, etc.).

Question 4

What is the minimum price?

Accepted Answer

The minimum sale price is $0.10 USDC. There is no maximum.

Question 5

What does Monerixa charge?

Accepted Answer

A flat 5% on every sale. There are no monthly fees, no setup fees, and no tiered rates based on duration or file size. If you sell $100 of content, you receive $95.

Question 6

When do I receive payment?

Accepted Answer

Instantly. The USDC goes directly to your wallet on-chain when the buyer's transaction confirms — typically under one second. There is no payout schedule, no minimum withdrawal, and no intermediary holding your funds.

Question 7

What currency is used?

Accepted Answer

USDC (USD Coin) on the Solana blockchain. USDC is a stablecoin pegged to the US dollar. Buyers need USDC in their Solana wallet to pay for content. Creators only need USDC for the small per-upload anti-spam deposit — and if they have platform credits from previous refunded deposits, no USDC is needed at all.

Question 8

Are there gas fees?

Accepted Answer

Solana transaction fees are typically less than $0.001. Monerixa does not add any markup to gas fees — the buyer pays the tiny Solana network fee directly.

Question 9

What is the anti-spam deposit?

Accepted Answer

To prevent storage abuse, each upload requires a small USDC deposit. Amounts range from $0.01 (text, links, small files) to $0.15 (files up to 100 MB). The deposit is a one-time cost per paywall, not per buyer.

Question 10

Do I get my deposit back?

Accepted Answer

Yes — if you paid the deposit on-chain (directly from your wallet), it is automatically credited back to your Monerixa balance once your paywall earns $1 in total gross buyer revenue. You can then use that credit to cover the deposit on your next upload, with no wallet transaction needed. Note: if you already used platform credits to pay the deposit, that deposit is not refunded again — credits are a one-cycle reward, not an infinite loop.

Question 11

What if my content expires with no sales?

Accepted Answer

If a paywall expires with zero sales, the deposit is retained by the platform. This is the anti-spam mechanism — it discourages uploading content with no intention of selling it.

Question 12

What happens to my deposit if my file is flagged as infected?

Accepted Answer

For your first several infected uploads, the deposit is refunded as platform credit — we give you the benefit of the doubt. However, if you repeatedly upload infected files (more than 5), your deposits will no longer be refunded. This policy deters abuse while protecting honest creators from accidental infections.

Question 13

Is my deposit refunded if my content is removed by moderation?

Accepted Answer

No. Content removed for policy violations — including malware, illegal material, or other prohibited content — forfeits the associated deposit. Deposits are only credited back when a paywall earns $1 in legitimate buyer revenue.

Question 14

Can I use credits instead of paying a deposit on-chain?

Accepted Answer

Yes. If your credit balance covers the required deposit, it is automatically deducted during upload — no wallet transaction or popup needed. Keep in mind that paywalls funded this way do not generate a new credit refund when they hit $1, since the platform never received new USDC for that deposit.

Question 15

Why does my wallet ask me to sign something when I upload?

Accepted Answer

When you create a paywall, your wallet asks you to sign a short message to prove you own the wallet address. This is a signature — not a transaction — so no gas is charged and no funds move. It is a security step that prevents someone from uploading content under a wallet address they do not control.

Question 16

How long does buyer access last?

Accepted Answer

Access matches the duration you set at upload time: 1 hour, 1 day, 7 days, 30 days, 90 days, 180 days, or 365 days. Once the paywall expires, the buyer can no longer download — but any files they already downloaded are theirs to keep.

Question 17

Can a buyer share the download link?

Accepted Answer

No. Downloads require a fresh wallet signature each time. The server issues a short-lived single-use download token after verifying the buyer's wallet. There is no permanent shareable download URL.

Question 18

Can I edit my content after uploading?

Accepted Answer

You can edit the title, description, and price at any time from the Dashboard. The underlying file, text, or link cannot be changed — create a new paywall for a new version.

Question 19

Can I delete my paywall?

Accepted Answer

Yes, from the Dashboard. However, if a buyer has purchased within the last 24 hours, deletion is temporarily blocked to give them time to download what they paid for. The dashboard will show the exact time when deletion becomes available. Files are removed from disk once no other paywall references them.

Question 20

Are files encrypted?

Accepted Answer

Every uploaded file is encrypted with industry-standard authenticated encryption before storage. Each file gets its own encryption key. Decryption happens server-side during download — the plaintext is never stored on disk.

Question 21

What content is not allowed?

Accepted Answer

CSAM, illegal material, malware, adult/sexually explicit content, and content that violates intellectual property law are prohibited. Violating content is permanently removed. Creator wallets may be banned. See the report page for the full list of report categories.

Question 22

Is adult content allowed?

Accepted Answer

No. Monerixa prohibits all sexually explicit or pornographic material, including explicit images, videos, and text content intended for sexual arousal. This applies regardless of whether the content depicts real individuals, fictional characters, or AI-generated imagery. See our Content Policy for details.

Question 23

Are file uploads scanned for malware?

Accepted Answer

Yes. All uploaded files are automatically scanned for malware before being made available to buyers. Content remains in a "pending" state during scanning and cannot be purchased until the scan completes. If malware is detected, the content is removed and your deposit may be refunded as credit (up to 5 times). After repeated infected uploads, deposits are retained as a deterrent.

Question 24

Is text content moderated?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Text paywalls are automatically checked against our content policy before the upload is accepted. Content that violates severe policy categories (threats, CSAM-related material, instructions for self-harm) is blocked immediately — before any deposit is charged. Milder policy concerns are flagged for review but allowed.

Question 25

How do I report content?

Accepted Answer

Every paywall page has a "Report" link. You can also visit /report/:contentId directly. Reports are reviewed by our moderation team. Content with multiple pending reports is auto-hidden pending review.

Question 26

How do I submit a DMCA notice?

Accepted Answer

Visit /dmca and submit the form with your name, email, and a description of the original work. DMCA requests are reviewed by our team. If upheld, the content is permanently removed.

Question 27

How can I support Monerixa?

Accepted Answer

Monerixa is built and maintained independently with no venture funding or ads. If you find the platform useful, you can send a donation in USDC or SOL to our platform wallet. Visit the Donate page to copy the wallet address or scan the QR code.

Question 28

Is it safe to donate via the wallet address on the site?

Accepted Answer

Yes. A Solana wallet address is public by design — it can only receive tokens, never send them. No one can access your funds using just your address. The only consideration is that on-chain transactions are publicly visible, but that applies to all Solana activity.
