New XChat on X Will Feature Bitcoin-Style Encryption
Last Sunday, Elon Musk introduced the new XChat. He announced that the direct message (DM) function of the social media platform will offer Bitcoin-style encryption. Currently available in beta on X (formerly known as Twitter), this is a new feature for paying subscribers. In addition to encryption, the messaging tool will also include disappearing messages, audio and video call capabilities, and file sharing support https://xrust.ru/. The social media platform has not yet revealed when XChat will be widely rolled out to eligible users.
In a post on X, Musk shared more details about the platform’s messaging tool under development. XChat is built using the Rust programming language, which was designed for safety and speed. Originally developed by Mozilla Research, Rust has recently gained significant popularity. It’s used by platforms like Dropbox, Cloudflare, and Discord. Musk also mentioned that XChat will offer “Bitcoin-style encryption.”
This is somewhat of a misnomer, as Bitcoin does not inherently involve encryption. However, the platform is likely incorporating cryptographic methods that underpin Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies. Until XChat is officially released, the application of this method cannot be clearly specified.
