It sure is innovative. But are people actually using it? Or do they just want a relay-based chat?
Discussion
I find bitcoin, nostr and now bitchat interesting, particularly because they are all (hopefully) being built and made robust for necessary use cases on the edges of existence.
i use the bluetooth part it is very useful
Yes, they are
For me the only value of bitchat is the bluetooth part since that means it can be used in no internet situations. I dont actively use it since location based nostr sounds like a bad idea to me. But its in my emergency kit.
