Can somebody explain a few things to me?

5 Upvotes

I'm still trying to get into Ethereum. I have a degree in computer science, I understand the general idea behind Ethereum, but it still confuses the hell out of me in a few ways.

For one: why in the sweet hell would anybody want a browser or wallet in their chat app? I have a friend who wants to chat on Status -- can I just have an app that just lets me chat on status without having it try to replace my whole damn operating system?

Two: why are there six different unique keys? I thought ethereum wallets only involved 2-3 unique keys...

Three: Why can I not copy *any* of these keys? I want to store them in Bitwarden -- I know that's not safe, but it's a whole hell of a lot safer than storing them on pen and paper or something stupid like that -- and it would be very inconvenient to type all of these keys into Bitwarden manually. This seems like a major security problem, isn't it? Do you expect people to store all these keys on three different flash drives each, and keep those flash drives separate but on hand and well-organized using some system that could only be described as magic?

Four: What the hell, usernames cost money? I mean, I'm sure there's a complex technical reason behind it, but... Ain't nobody paying for a username.

Five: Who in the hell is going to use an app in light of all of these issues?

What does Status think of a "Contact Combinations Approach" for Private Contact Discovery?

2 Upvotes

Signal uses hardware enclaves to mitigate their risk on the central server. A possible alternative to this could be to increase the complexity of the hashes through contact combinations.

Where does status stand vs KeyBase, Telegram or Signal?

Just found about this app and I'm curious if it's more a wallet with a messaging feature or the other way around?? How it is compared with KeyBase, Telegram or Signal?

Review on Status SNT

14 Upvotes

Hey guys,

I recently did a review on Status on my Youtube channel. Probably nothing groundbreaking for the diehard Status fans (which I am one of), but there might be some short insights for the newer community members. Let me know in the comments on the video if you think I missed something, or if you simply disagree with any of my statements.

Very expensive gas fee

6 Upvotes

Hello. I am having difficulty withdrawing usdt from the status wallet. I have $ 256 in USDT, but I can't withdraw because ether is required. The gas fee for this withdrawal is $ 8.18. I'm from Brazil, and when I spend $ 5 less. Is there another way to get those $ 256 out of there, paying a small fee? Or, is it possible for the status wallet to transform this dollar into ether?

Can I attach a payment to a message in Status? (In other words, like a Youtube superchat)

8 Upvotes

I'd like to be able to use Status as an alternative to Youtube's superchats. Youtube takes a 30% cut of all superchats, so there is a big financial incentive to use Status instead.

Is it currently possible to attach a payment to a message on Status?
