Quick start

Try Keel on Mezo testnet in about two minutes. Everything here uses testnet BTC, which is free and worth nothing.

#1. Pick how you want to open Keel

In Telegram: open t.me/KeelMezoBot/app, or start a chat with @KeelMezoBot.
In a browser: open keel-miniapp.vercel.app and tap Open web app. No Telegram is needed.
Just looking: open the demo. It shows every screen with sample data and signs nothing.

#2. Connect a wallet

Use MetaMask, any browser wallet, or a mobile wallet through WalletConnect.

In the browser, you sign one message that proves the wallet is yours. It costs nothing and moves no funds, and it starts a 12-hour session.
In Telegram, you sign one message that links the wallet to your Telegram account.

Keel adds the Mezo network to your wallet if it's missing (Mezo testnet, chain id 31611).

#3. Get testnet BTC

Get free testnet BTC from the Mezo faucet. Keep a little BTC for gas: Keel holds back about 0.002 BTC for fees.

#4. Open your first loan

The smallest loan Mezo allows is 1,800 MUSD. At a 160% ratio that needs about 0.05 BTC in your wallet, including fees.

In chat, send borrow 1800 at 160%, or open Borrow in the app.

Borrow review: 1,800 MUSD, 0.1% fee, ratio 160%, liquidation price

Check the numbers and tap Sign 2 steps:

The first signature creates your guardian account.
The second opens the loan on Mezo.

The MUSD arrives in your wallet.

#5. Turn on protection

Open Protect.
Fund the reserve with a small amount, for example 0.005 BTC. The reserve is only ever spent on protecting this loan, and you can withdraw it at any time.
Choose a trigger and a target, for example 170% and 180%, and sign.

Want to see it react to the market? Tap Set to test. It puts the trigger one point under your current ratio, so the next small dip in Mezo's BTC price makes the keeper act.

#6. Pay someone

Open Pay.
Choose how to pay:
- Send to any @username or 0x address;
- Split a bill;
- Claim link for someone with no wallet: they open the link, claim in one step, and Keel pays their gas.

#7. Get alerts

In Telegram, alerts arrive in your chat with the bot.
On the web, use Connect Telegram in your profile to attach a Telegram account to the same wallet. Your history comes with it.
