It’s really sad to see SimpleX goes the shitcoin route to try and fund their project, Ethereum is not ethical as I briefly explained in this post

Now is a perfect opportunity to fork the project with I2P and add Monero as the payment option both for people to transact and fund the developers and I2P operators

    The interesting thing about simplex is that (IIRC) the chat protocol is unencrypted and sits atop an encrypted transport protocol call SMP.

    That is to say the encryption is divorced from the rest of the stack, and a lot of the hardwork of making it is done.

    Of course its going to need lots of maintenance, but the open source community has proven itself capable of maintaining secure implementations of encryption alogrythms.

    This is especially true if we continue to take upstream upgrades from SimpleX and strip the crypto VC bullshit out of the codebase.
