Most people use the weekend to unwind, not Jack Dorsey, CEO of Bitcoin tech firm Block and former CEO of what was then Twitter. Dorsey spent this past weekend building a messaging app that exclusively communicates via Bluetooth. “My weekend project: to learn about Bluetooth mesh networks, relays, and store and forward models, message encryption models, and a few other things,” Dorsey wrote on Sunday in a post on X. He calls the app “Bitchat,” and has even published a whitepaper on Github and uploaded a test version of the app to Apple’s “Testflight” platform. The whitepaper describes Bitchat as “a secure, decentralized, peer-to-peer messaging app that works over Bluetooth mesh networks.” Bitchat doesn’t even require an Internet connection or phone number, according to the whitepaper. It also features end-to-end encryption, automatically pitting itself against Meta’s Whatsapp, but there’s still work to do. A few people pointed out several key features that are missing from Bitchat. “Yes, will work on these. Started small.” Not bad for a weekend’s worth of work.
