Jack Dorsey Experiments with “BitChat”, a Decentralized Messaging App Without Internet

Jack Dorsey, the co-founder of Twitter, is testing “BitChat,” a decentralized messaging system designed to function without an internet connection. This initiative aims to provide a reliable and resilient means of communication in environments where internet access is limited or unavailable. “BitChat” technology relies on a peer-to-peer network, allowing users to send and receive messages directly without the need for a central server. Dorsey believes that such decentralized systems can enhance freedom of expression and provide a secure alternative to traditional messaging platforms. The application is still in its early testing phase, but it has the potential to revolutionize how we communicate in areas with poor connectivity or during emergencies. Dorsey emphasizes the importance of developing communication tools that are resistant to censorship and independent of major corporate control.
