Getting Started

Connect and sign in

You do not need to connect your wallet to begin exploring Hōkū. However, connecting your wallet does unlock some powerful personalization features and doing so costs nothing, provides no control permissions to the app and does not reveal any personal data.

To connect your wallet, click "Connect Wallet" in the upper right corner.

We currently support MetaMask, Coinbase and Phatom wallets, as well as any Wallet Connect compatable wallet.

Similarly, you do not need to sign in order to explore Hōkū. However signing in unlocks additional features such as Favorite Wallet lists. To sign in, click "Sign in" in the upper right corner.

When signing in, you will be requested to sign a message with your wallet. This proves that you are the owner of that wallet and does not grant Deep3 Labs any control or privileges over your wallet or the tokens you hold in it. There are no transaction fees associated with this operation.

Once complete, these two controls will show that you are fully connected and signed in.

Primary navigation

The primary navigation controls are found on the left-side of each page. Home is the main landing page for the app. My Dashboard contains a variety of information about the wallet you've connected with. Cluster Trends displays real-time buying and selling trends within each trading cluster. My Favorites shows a list of wallets that you've marked for tracking. There are 2 interactive, 3D network explorers: Wallet Cloud shows all of the active traders on the chain and Token Cloud, which is under development, will show all active tokens on the chain. Trade Signals shows the active and past alerts for trading trends that have emerged from our real-time trading cluster data feed. Settings and Terms & Privacy contain basic information about Hōkū.

Within each page, you may find additional navigational controls and typically those will be found at the top of the page. For most pages, these consist of clearly titled drop-down filters or buttons.

Settings

The Hōkū Settings menu lets you control your app environment and personalize how you receive alerts. From here, you can switch between supported networks and manage system notifications that keep you informed about market trends. Settings are saved automatically, so any changes take effect immediately.

Change network

The Change Network section allows you to select which blockchain network Hōkū operates on, currently Base, BNB Smart Chain, or Ethereum. All explorers, dashboards, predictions and token data will refresh automatically to match the selected network. The only module that is not network specific is the Trade Signal Alerts, which always combines trade signal data from all networks into a single page.

Switching networks does not affect your wallet connection or saved preferences.

System notifications

System notifications keep you informed about new and evolving market signals even when you’re not actively using Hōkū. These alerts appear as push notifications directly from your web browser. By default, system notifications are not turned on.

When Notifications Enabled is turned on, your browser will ask for permission to display push notifications. Once granted, these alerts will appear on your desktop or mobile device depending on your system settings.

Once turned on, you cannot disable notifications from inside Hōkū. To turn off system notifications, you'll need to manually disable notifications for the site itself. You can usually do this by clicking the lock icon next to the site’s URL and adjusting notification permissions.

Turning notifications back on requires the same permission process, so it’s best to manage your preferences carefully if you want to pause alerts temporarily without losing the browser permission entirely.

When enabled, you can control which type of notification you receive.

  • New trend alerts when a fresh buy or sell signal is generated.

  • Updates to existing trends when a previously active alert changes in strength, direction, or status.

If you'd like to minimize the number of notifications, but still stay informed on the most important alerts, de-select "Updates to Existing Trends." In most market conditions, there are far more updates to trade signals than there are new ones.

Risk level filtering

The Risk Level Filter helps you control which tokens appear in your signal alerts by automatically hiding tokens that show potential security risks. You can easily change the Risk Level Filter in Hōkū’s settings menu, or by clicking the filter control on the Token Signal Alerts page.

It combines results from all three of Hōkū’s integrated security providers (TokenSniffer, Go+ Security, and Honeypot.is) to assign a composite risk level for each token based on issues detected in its smart contract, liquidity, or holder behavior.

Security data in Hōkū is provided directly by third-party partners and may not always be accurate or up to date. Risk scores can change at any point during a token’s lifecycle as new activity occurs or contracts are modified. Deep3 Labs does not verify, endorse, or alter any of this information and presents it exactly as received from these external sources. Users should always perform their own due diligence before trading.

You can adjust the filter at any time using the Risk Level selector at the top of the alerts screen. More strict filter settings will reduce the number of visible alerts.

Off

Shows all alerts, regardless of risk. Use this setting if you want full visibility into every signal, including tokens with potential vulnerabilities or unverified contracts.

Low

Hides only tokens that are not marked as confirmed scams or honeypots, but where there are uncertain or unknown results from one or more of the 3 providers. All other alerts, including those with minor warnings, remain visible.

Mid

Hides only tokens that are not marked as confirmed scams or honeypots, but where there are conflicting results from one or more of the 3 providers. All other alerts, including those with minor warnings, remain visible.

High

Displays only tokens where all 3 providers have confirmed the token is not a scam or honeypot and the token is at least 48 hours old. This is the most conservative view, designed for users who prefer to focus on verified, low-risk assets.

Your chosen setting applies instantly across all alert feeds and persists between sessions. Adjusting it allows you to tailor the balance between visibility and caution depending on your risk tolerance and trading strategy.

Support

Throughout the app, you'll see a circled question mark icon that launches context-specific help docs directly in the interface. If you get stuck, this is the best first step.
