Re: [ANN]CONNECT-An open source P2P encrypted messaging & onchain bitcoin wallet APP
It is project ran by Bitmain, well Bitmain_Rob is who announced it - he was the creator of snowball.io, now Hashnest. (Bitmain respond to their official Connect ANN on their own forum - https://enforum.bitmain.com/bbs/topics/4027)
I would actually like to use the APP to replace a slack channel but it would need to be opensourced before I even consider that, guess we're just their beta testers - atleast I got paid with luckypackets, where's the next bunch for me to claim

Re: [ANN]CONNECT-An open source P2P encrypted messaging & onchain bitcoin wallet APP
Good app but without open source no trust.
we need 2-3 months for review code. It will open source in june
i ask about the missing GitHub link a few days ago. and i did not get an answer. and now you write that you will wait for 1-3 month. because of code review. if you show the code to all now than the review can start.
this all sounds fishy. how should i trust you?
Very .... Opensourced SOON

From memory to create a group, first add 2 contacts (scan their QR code using the APP), DM one of them, goto the menu and invite the other user - Your Group invite QR will now be in the same menu
There are a couple of groups around Mine - http://i.imgur.com/tfT0tpw.jpg and Hashnest - https://dn-hashnest.qbox.me/assets/connect/group-en-095db06cf7faf3f2f7a2f86068d1b681.jpg

I tried this method.
When I clicked to take picture the apps auto closed.
Maybe they need to fix this bug.

Yea its been reported, exactly the same.
Just realised you can create a user from an electrum(or other) privkey too ...
Just goto "import your backup sigIn/Up local account" > Scan backup > Scan PrivKey QR from your desired wallet .. sooo many possibilities would love it to hit github!

There have been lots of reports of android not working at that exact point ... try this (might differ I did it from the iOS APP)

On the first page you will be asked for a phone number, if you don't want to right down the bottom click "import your backup sigIn/Up local account"
Click Sign In/Up Local account
Take a picture of something random, this will be your Avatar in Connect.IM
Enter your username and password and click Completed
Click "Backup encrypted private key" - Save to photos or email it
Click Start encrypted chat
You've Signed Up!
Now scan a QR to join a group/claim lucky packet etc (goto Contacts > + at top)
To collect LuckyPackets you have to verify a phone number - can be done in Settings

Re: [ANN]CONNECT-An open source P2P encrypted messaging & onchain bitcoin wallet APP
Well I'm the one known as T22 23 24 25, waiting for the next round to claim it all again
Thanks for the mentions
CONNECT looks like it is a product of BITMAIN (BITMAIN_Rob - Product Manager of Hashnest), so I guess its reputable - They forced the Hashnest Trollbox to use it a couple of days ago.
The idea looks good at first but it seems flawed... "BIG BROTHER IS WATCHING YOU", and CONNECT app doesn't watch us right - do they track us though?
So I verify my phone number - it's hashed before it reaches CONNECT servers (probably not cos how do they send SMS's to hashed numbers) - They now have our phone number, linked to a bitcoin address.
You then go into the APP, goto contacts and you allow it access to your contacts (it does ask!)
According to CONNECT website:
What Comparison? - Checking to see if any of the hashed phone numbers match other CONNECT users?
Sounds like Big Brother - Doesn't have to be government, Business love tracking data - especially tracking data related to digital currencies
I know you don't have to verify/bind a phone number but from what I understand, you can't claim luckypackets without it.
If you manage to get CONNECT working feel free to come join my Trollbox

Contact list: No contact lists are stored when synchronizing contacts. The phone numbers from your address book get anonymized (hashed) before they reach the server. Once the comparison is finished, they are immediately deleted from the server.
