iota1k is a completely free, distributed private messaging app that uses the IOTA Tangle to exchange messages between users. All communication is automatically encrypted using quantum resistant NTRU-based encryption.
There are already many encrypted messaging platforms, but iota1k is unique in that it uses a completely open source, peer-to-peer, community-based technology - the IOTA Tangle - as the storage and delivery infrastructure. This means that there is no commercial entity that has control over or access to your communications. There are no central servers and almost all meta-data - information about who is sending messages to who - is kept private.
iota1k will always be free.
IOTA is of course a crypto-currency that allows users to exchange digital currency. Though iota1k does not yet support transferring IOTAs between users, it is definitely a high priority feature that will be coming soon.
To start using iota1k all you need is an IOTA seed and an IOTA node to connect to.
- Download the latest release https://github.com/xx10t4/iota1k/releases
- Install as appropriate for your operating system
- Log in with an IOTA seed
- Add node host and port in Settings
- Create an Account and share your Account address with other users to begin sending messages.
