🎯 BITCOIN VIA BLUETOOTH WITH BITCHAT: NO NETWORK REQUIRED 🎯
Callebtc has demonstrated a revolutionary innovation: sending Bitcoin (via Cashu e-cash) from Android to iPhone via Bluetooth using Bitchat, without internet on the sender side.
It's an instant, private, offline peer-to-peer transfer, like passing digital cash hand to hand.
Bitchat is a cross-platform meshnet app (Android/iOS) that creates Bluetooth networks for chat and payments. It natively integrates a Cashu wallet: an open-source protocol for e-cash on Bitcoin/Lightning, generating cryptographic tokens (IOUs of Bitcoin) spendable offline. The sender transmits the tokens via Bluetooth; the receiver redeems them later at the mint (custodial issuer) by connecting online, preventing double-spending through Chaumian mechanisms.
No central server, low latency, ideal for areas without coverage (festivals, emergencies, censorship).
It works in multi-hop mesh: only one online device is needed for validation.
Risks?
Custody at the mint (reputational trust) and loss of device before redemption, but tokens can be recovered via seed.

This surpasses fragile infrastructures, making Bitcoin truly unstoppable and private.
Next step: NFC payments?
