How to use Phantom’s social feed

The social feed in your Phantom mobile app gives you a real-time stream of updates from the people and tokens you choose to follow. You'll see what your friends, top traders ("whales"), and the wider community are buying, selling, and reacting to—helping you spot opportunities faster.

This article covers how the social feed works, privacy controls, and how to get the most out of your experience.

Use the feed

What stories you can see

The way that the feed works is by showing you different types of activities as stories:

• Buys and sells from people you follow.
• Whale activity (when notable accounts make significant trades).
• Your own on-chain activity from your default public address.

How to get the most of your feed

Here's how you turn the feed into a more valuable, engaging experience:

• Follow accounts and tokens that interest you to personalize and enrich your feed.
• Buy tokens directly from stories.
• React to your friends' buys and sells.

Manage your privacy settings

Manage profile visibility

Your profile defaults to public—this means it can be searched and seen by others. To change it:

1. On the home screen, tap your avatar in the top left.
2. Go to View Profile > Edit Profile > Privacy.
3. Choose your visibility level:
   1. Public: Anyone can follow you and view your activity.
   2. Private: Only people you approve can follow you and view your activity.
   3. Invisible: Your profile and activity are hidden from everyone.

If you see a profile with a lock symbol 🔒 next to the name, this means the user has a private profile, and you won't be able to see their activity. Their activity becomes visible if they follow you back.

1. On the home screen, tap your avatar in the top left.
