"devising a scheme that handles both messaging and payments under one roof could be a killer app" - Colin Harper

As part of Bitcoin Magazine's excellent set of articles on "The Technology of Dissent," we get a great piece by Colin Harper on the state of encrypted messaging over the Lightning Network. With both Shpinx and Whatsat using separate mechanisms for establishing a private, censorship resistant, decentralized messaging platform, could the combination of encrypted messaging and payments be a killer app for Lightning? Listen to today's episode to find out!
