Title: Whispe.rs - Send Text Messages Anonymously Using Bitcoin! [Dev Side Project]
Post by: IAmTheOutlander on December 16, 2016, 05:56:13 AM
Hey guys I had this idea couple days ago for a web application that allows you to send anonymous text messages. It just finished it recently and was very happy with the possible uses of this simple tool. Using bitcoin as a payment option gives that extra layer of anonymity to the service. I am planning on using it mostly for pranks on my friends but I thought you guys might want to play with it too!

Please let me know what you think. I am always trying to improve my programming skills with feedback :)

Aren't there other sites similar to this that already exist?
I mean I like your site, especially because of its simplicity and ease of use.
However, don't you think $1 a text is a little much? Secondly, would there be any people could see if the texts were responded to?

Design looks pretty clean and simple and I like that however If we speak about the pricing then It's definitely overpriced If we compare it to the SIM providers we are using In real life , I also like that you are accepting bitcoin as a payment method but In the same time , I dislike the fact that you are asking the users to type their emails , payment info should be available on the public without the need of even making an account.

Will there be any beta phase to test everything out with few testers?

What I didn't like:
1. 1$ charge regardless of what country the number were going to send
2. Character limit

Hey OP,
Could you please clarify this? Does each user have a unique inbox or is it purely an outbox only device? If so, would you be able to see the replies that you get or is this not included in the service?
Thanks

Pretty neat service! Would you be able to incorporate an auto-carrier search for those of us who do not know the recipient's carrier?
