Twitter founder Jack Dorsey has published the white paper for Bitchat, a decentralized messaging platform operating entirely over Bluetooth.
The app is designed to work without internet access, relying instead on Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) mesh networks for peer-to-peer communication.
What is Bitchat?
Bitchat is a privacy-first chat platform built on a store-and-forward architecture using BLE.
Its goal is to offer censorship-resistant communication that remains functional even during internet outages or infrastructure failures.
Bitchat operates across BLE mesh networks, allowing users to communicate securely within physical range. According to its white paper, each device serves as a client and server, relaying messages between users in a decentralized fashion.
This multi-hop design expands communication beyond the direct Bluetooth range, making it possible to reach offline or distant devices through nearby nodes.
Bitchat uses a custom BLE mesh protocol that lets devices scan for othe
