Abstract:Messaging is one of the most popular modes of communication in the modern world. But centralized messaging applications like WhatsApp and WeChat have many flaws. Blockchain as a distributed ledger technology has become widely popular in the past decade. Its ability to maintain integrity, confidentiality and availability of data has caused its rise to popularity. Using these blockchain features to our favor, we have created a decentralized messaging web application which is safe, reliable and secure, to overcome the shortcomings of centralized messaging applications. Decentralized web Applications (DApps) like ours, are a relatively new development in the blockchain sector which make use of the peer-to-peer nature of blockchain and ensure availability of the application in case of partial failures. The immutable nature of blockchain allows us to send, receive and store messages in a decentralized environment. Decentralization also allows us to ensure reliable and secure communication at relatively lower costs.
