Zero Chat is a private messenger with a crypto wallet inside. Claim your @handle as an NFT nobody can take from you, chat end-to-end encrypted, run groups and channels, and send private payments right in the conversation. Nothing is stored.
Mint @yourname on ZeroChain. Only your wallet can move it or change its keys. The small zkTRACE fee is burned. Ethereum minting arrives with mainnet.
X25519 + XChaCha20-Poly1305, signed with Ed25519. The relay sees ciphertext only and never learns who sent a message (sealed sender).
Messages live only in memory. Lock or close the session and they are gone. Offline messages wait encrypted for at most 24 hours.
Set a timer per chat, from 30 seconds to a week. Both sides delete the message when it runs out.
Like Telegram, but encrypted. Groups where everyone writes, channels where only you post. Invite by @handle or by a link whose keys never touch a server.
A full wallet for ZeroChain and Ethereum. Pay inside a chat through Shield, swap privately on ZeroDex, share ZeroLinks.
