Congrats brother β€
Millions trust Signal to keep their conversations private. The same should be true for payments.
Signal deserves a payment experience thatβs just as private and instant. Powered by Bitcoin β the native currency of the internet. So we built it.

Sending money to friends should be as easy and private as sending a message.
Our developers imagined what Bitcoin inside Signal could feel like. We integrated Cashu into the iOS and Android Signal apps, delivering a beautiful experience that protects user privacy end to end.

Back in 2021, Signal integrated MobileCoin. It stayed niche, speculative, and largely unknown to most users.
As the most widely adopted cryptocurrency, Bitcoin is ideal as the backbone for the new global economy.

Using the Cashu protocol, a Chaumian ecash system that provides strong privacy, Signal users can send and receive Bitcoin micropayments instantly.
The Cashu Signal integration doesn't compromise Signal's privacy guarantees. Your messages are private. Your payments should be too.
The 'Android Source Code' link seems to be borked, at least on mobile
libbitcoinkernel should hopefully make that more feasible
so pumped for silent payments

going to experiment with an onchain zap spec soon
I may or may not be watching those PRs religiously π
Honestly the potential is really exciting π
I hope there aren't too many footguns along the way. I'm worried about all of the different options being confusing to end users ...
No one needs to do anything outside of the consensus rules
It's not, according to Bitcoin Core:
> Bitcoin is a network that is defined by its users, who have ultimate freedom in choosing what software they use (fully-validating or not) and implementing whatever policies they desire. Bitcoin Core contributors are not in a position to mandate what those are. One way this is reflected is by our long-running practice of avoiding auto-updating in the software. This means that no entity can unilaterally push out changes to Bitcoin Core users: changes must be made by users choosing to adopt new software releases themselves, or if they so desire, different software. Being free to run any software is the networkβs primary safeguard against coercion.

Discoverability is nice sometimes though

If I only use models running locally will I be OK? Or do I need to get used to the big cloud providers because they have all the "advanced" features?
A profile within a user with their own apps, settings and files. You can store and run certain apps in this space protected by a separate PIN or password. It is isolated from the rest of the user but you can transfer certain things through it if the user desired.

Awesome!
None of this is "obvious" without receipts. I'm not gonna blindly assume the absolute worst from Louis, as it seems very out-of-character for him.
I saw Louis's video way back when it first came out, and it really seems like you're catastrophizing here, my friend: "targeted", "harassment", "spins", " fabrications", ...
Your assumptions seem incredibly uncharitable towards Louis...
What _specifically_ am I missing?

No matter what I or others do we get the error "We couldn't verify that this account belongs to you." :( #cashapp #grapheneos
Sorry I'm not sure what you mean by this. Isn't that an unrelated problem?
but is it really so bad when the owner of the email address can reset passwords at will anyways?
