Hi Bitcointalk members! I started development on an anonymous chat, where people sign up with their BTC Address. The ownership of the address is verified by entering the balance of the address. I am looking into verifying it by the hash160 value, but I don't know how users get them. I will be posting sketches soon. Reply if you have suggestions. If you want to support this project, please donate some Bitcoin to this address: 1BmqgMppdofEbVAKTkxsJ9N6JvFXmySEQk UPDATE: I just registered a Domain for BitChat, at http://www.bitchat.xyz/Signed Message: Address: 1BmqgMppdofEbVAKTkxsJ9N6JvFXmySEQk Message: I, lightenx confirm that I can recieve funds for BitChat on this Bitcoin Address.

The forum strives to allow free discussion of any ideas. All policies are built around this principle. This doesn't mean you can post garbage, though: posts should actually contain ideas, and these ideas should be argued reasonably.

you can add an option that people can login using their BTC address by signing a message each time they want to login they have to sign a message using their bitcoin address

Great, do you know any APIs to verify a message? you can verify using bitcoind you will need to setup your own bitcoin server and then you can verify signed message using API, check below link for API commands https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Original_Bitcoin_client/API_calls_listverifymessage <bitcoinaddress> <signature> <message> Verify a signed message.

How is your development going on this project, seems like a very interesting project. If you need any help with hosting etc let me know, I could sort some free hosting out for you.

Hi Bitcointalk members! I started development on an anonymous chat, where people sign up with their BTC Address. The ownership of the address is verified by entering the balance of the address.
Terrible method. I could easily sign up and claim to be Satoshi via that method just by looking up his address on Blockchain.info. Also, this chat will only be anonymous if you generate a fresh address for it. Worth pointing that out, and it probably wouldn't be too hard to end up tracing either
