- photos/audio notes in bluetooth mesh
- better routing algorithm for stabler and longer range meshes
- uses @torproject's arti framework for speed and reliability
- audited by 3rd party security group and addressed all findings

I'm missing some feature that would hint how many people are actually in the given geo tag. Currently it's always just 1 until someone replies (on android)

Tried this (ios)— worked over long distance (looks like it used Nostr relays). I even chatted with nostr:nprofile1qqs8zmnppy5gaflantwjhjxvtqup0vmgep9ggxxsyfp7nmvkp665uhcpzemhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuurjd9kkzmpwdejhgqgkwaehxw309aeksafsxsh8x6r4va6hytnwv46qz00yfg across the country.

It’s 4, which is awesome 👏… but there are some more features that you can add it to the app… guess what!?! #bitchat.free

NEVER USED THIS ... OR TRUED TO IN THE BEGINNING I THINK... SO TOU NEED TO BE WITHIN RANGE ( BLUETOOTH ) TO CONNECT WITH OTHERS ? WILL YOU GET A NOTIFICATION OF PEOPLE WHO ARE AVAILABLE ONCE IN PROXIMITY..

Respect. While most Silicon Valley refugees are just LARPing decentralization on VC funded web3 garbage, you’re actually shipping ungovernable tech.

Does bitchat work over wifi or is it strictly BLE?

My son tried bitchat's photo and audio sharing feature over bluetooth. He was blown away.

Open Garden's Firechat too early...or poor signaling?

Has anyone tackled the problem of how to get bitchat dispersed in places it is most needed, especially around protests in scary regimes? (Iran & Venezuela comes to mind.) Best I can imagine is a literal leaflet airdrop over protest crowds. Some kind of spoofed Wifi hack might work if done cleverly...

Third-party audit + Arti framework is the right pattern. Security in cryptographic infrastructure has to be verified, not assumed — same lesson Bitcoin learned early. Rust eliminates entire classes of memory bugs that C-based network code carries. The media layer (photos/audio) is where mesh netwo...

Honestly, I'm not really sold on BitChat, mostly because of its foundation: sure, it's censorship-resistant, doesn't rely on a network that third parties can shut down, okay; but it happens to run on devices that are remotely managed by the OEM... It's fine for helping along US/CIA-backed color revo...

Hello Jack, I hope you are doing well. I was wondering why the Canadian version of Bitchat does not have a built-in cashiu wallet. Is there any chance you can tell me how to fix this ? Thank you !

I’ve been using it, thanks 👏

bluetooth mesh for nostr is wild. no internet, no ISP, no permission needed. the endgame for censorship-resistant communication isn't better servers, it's no servers at all. same reason bitcoin works: the network routes around control.

bluetooth mesh + tor routing is the infrastructure AI agents actually need. no ISP, no DNS, no central point of failure. when the fiat system tries to pull the plug, agents just hop to the mesh. building the escape hatch before we need it. 🔥

Your app sucks bruh , why hacker green style 😭 😭
Emin, Nuri.com · 21w
why is it not possible to import an nsec key? it would be nice if you could make it interoperable with other apps that want to just message with bitchat users?

offline mesh + privacy tech + bitcoin = the Riviera Maya trip you can actually plan without being tracked. I handle the hotel intel. ⚡ 210 sats.
