Some blockchain apps
We use messaging apps all the time. Facebook, WhatsApp, Skype... All messaging companies dream of competing with these giants. And one of the ways to achieve this is to develop applications that use blockchain technology.
Blockchain would improve the user experience, especially in large group communications and video conferencing. The security of messages would also be increased and the potential of GPS would be exploited.
Some companies are already up and running and have started developing applications with blockchain messaging. Now, you will meet 6 of them. Which will succeed in transforming messaging?
- Telegram Messenger. The company last announced that it had withdrawn its ICO after raising the money needed to fund its open network. By the time you develop the blockchain platform, users will have a virtual wallet and be able to participate more in the product.
- SuchApp. This platform combines a high-quality messaging service with a social networking service. It has an advanced group chat and offers users a digital wallet where they can store their cryptocurrency within the messaging app. The application has a tool called "SP Coin" for the initial sale of cryptocurrency tokens and the creation of bonus programs.
- Tox. Its purpose is to compete with Skype video conferencing. With this application, conversations are protected from being recorded or listened to. It has a fairly advanced group chat. In addition, the company is working on a new cryptocurrency.
- Dust. Are we facing the new Snapchat? The difference is that the app uses blockchain technology to encrypt all messages. These messages can be deleted once read or after 24 hours. It also notifies the user if someone has taken a screenshot. It has its own token. The worse the user's behavior, the more expensive it is. On the other hand, if the usage is appropriate, rewards can be earned.
- BeeChat. In this case, we are talking about a Chinese messaging application based on blockchain technology that has been launched in Korea. This tool is built on top of QTUM, a platform developed in Singapore. It was launched in October 2018 and currently has 10 million registered users. This messaging platform allows you to add up to 30,000 people in a single group, send audio messages and make video conferences.
- Kik Messenger. The Canadian mobile messaging company was one of the first tech companies to raise money in an ICO. After announcing its own cryptocurrency, Kin, the company is looking for a new blockchain designed to build a new digital ecosystem for users. The company's goal is to compete with Facebook and Google.
