our bitcoin for signal campaign has been a huge success
- sparked imagination: bitcoin should be what powers freedom tech
- proves that bitcoin use can be perfectly privacy-preserving
- shows cashu engineering's excellence: we shipped a working demo for ios & android
#BitcoinforSignal
Good done
where can you download the fork?

Cool! Now, do this for a secure communications platform that has an open-source back-end (and front-end of course), and can be federated.
Keychat is inspired by the postal system — stamps, post offices, letters.
Keychat uses Bitcoin ecash as stamps and Nostr relays as post offices.
Keychat uses Signal/MLS protocol to ensure message encryption security and meta-data privacy.
Yes, I know about Keychat. It still needs to mature some - the deb package is likely for trixie and doesn't work on my Whonix workstation, and the AppImage flickers a lot but at least seems to work. I'm also not really convinced MLS is a good idea. But Keychat is a cool nostr thingy.
Currently, Signal’s group chats primarily use the Sender Key scheme, rather than the previous pairwise-group approach.
The post compromise security of the Sender Keys group is not as strong as that of MLS groups.
this looks interesting, are you using it ?
Wen ecash on bitchat?
Also I wanted to tag nostr:npub1xtscya34g58tk0z605fvr788k263gsu6cy9x0mhnm87echrgufzsevkk5s
🤣🤣🤣🔥✅
The Peter Todd recommendation isn’t helping.
That would be great indeed, but only of they remove the mandatory phone number. That is a big no no.
This is really great initiative. Do you have some respond from Signal? Are they interested somehow?
I look forward to the day that nostr:nprofile1qqsfhcskzx35zsnwj9rz2lz5z70z95tchd75zphzglwl8eg8k7v956cpzemhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuerfw36x7tnsw43z7x3qlgh realises it can be a purely economic decision for them.
Follow Block’s lead and run a highly efficient lightning routing node and make bank.. Block reported ~10% APR on bitcoin liquidity back in May…
