1 year agoI hear what you’re saying and I’m not trying to promote Whatsapp, but want to note that backups do offer encryption. They did not use to and I believe it is off by default, however.
You do not need crypto to call with it. It is simply a payment mechanism. I don’t see anything wrong with it. If anyone is uninterested, they can simply turn it off or not use it. Conversely, burning up fees to interact with smart contracts to message is what seems more silly to me. There’d be no opting out of that.
