The first paragraphs on the donation page:The goal is to build a secure messaging app with integrated support for Monero payments and a decentralized backend.
The application will be based on the Signal fork Molly.im (henceforth ‘Molly’) but with a privacy-focused backend that allows the user to sign up anonymously (without phone number), encrypt their local database with passphrase encryption, RAM shredding, and more.
Monero features will include the ability to set up a XMR wallet, send and receive funds, keep track of the balance, and review the history.
Feelings of inadequacy? Signal also has a crypto integrated into the app called MobileCoin, which is a Monero fork. I agree, though. Nobody asked for integrated crypto in their chat app and that goes for both Molly and Signal.
