Something unusual is happening in the world of tech. And no, it's not another AI tool or a flashy startup. It’s a messaging app. But not like anything you’ve used before. No SIM card, No Wi-Fi, No internet, yet it works every time. It’s called BitChat, and it’s built by none other than Jack Dorsey — the co-founder of Twitter. But this time, he didn’t just build an app. He built a whisper network. One that operates in silence. One that moves without permission. Here’s the twist: BitChat doesn’t rely on towers or data. It uses Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) to send your messages — not through cables or satellites — but through people. Literally. Your phone sends out small, encrypted signals that are picked up by other nearby phones running BitChat. These signals hop from device to device like a secret being passed in the crowd… until it reaches the person it was meant for. And then? It disappears. No servers. No logs. No trace. Messages are compressed, split, encrypted, and erased after delivery. They live in RAM for a few moments — and then vanish. The system has a built-in self-destruct. Why does this matter? Because in places where the internet goes dark — during protests, disasters, or shutdowns — BitChat doesn’t blink. It just keeps whispering. It’s still in beta. Still raw. Still rising. But if this spreads, we may be witnessing the birth of a communication system no one can control — not governments, not telecom giants, not even Jack himself. The network is the people. And this… might just be the beginning. https://indianexpress.com/article/technology/tech-news-technology/bitchat-jack-dorsey-bluetooth-messaging-app-no-internet-10112918/
