bitchat now uses georelays for geohash chats. uses the 5 known relays closest to any given geohash. helps with latency and makes spam more difficult. and further decentralizes chat.

in app store now (1.3.2). android play store version does the same.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but doesn't that fragment the network and break these heatmap web apps (like bitmap.lat) because they cannot track events globally anymore? Unless they connect to all 300 georelays, I guess. Which seems possible for a dedicated spammer, but if hundreds of people are doing it...
