ETH wallet in ADAMANT Messenger

Blockchain technology enters closely into our life making it more convenient! As we said earlier, ADAMANT team is working on transferring tokens (ADM, ETH, BTC, LSK, etc.) right in chats.
With the release 1.1.0 of the app an ETH-wallet is created automatically for each user — this is a step towards the more ambitious goal. We followed the path of greatest security by never storing or transferring private keys for these ETH-wallets over the network since their generation is based on ADAMANT passphrase. Roughly speaking, this works the same way as MyEtherWallet does; soon we will explain everything in detail.
Try it yourself: msg.adamant.im. Make sure you are using the latest version of the application (settings tab at the bottom). Clear your browser’s cache if this is not the case.

Why Storing Your Messaging Data in Blockchain Might Be a Good Idea

Not long ago it turned out that Facebook was scanning messages sent via its Messenger app. The company said that it scans messages only for abuse, however, we all remember that Google used to read personal emails for better ads personalization. Another popular Telegram messenger is experiencing pressure from authorities in different countries who would like to get an opportunity to read what users are writing in chats.
Seems that nowadays it is almost impossible to use any convenient communication without completely sacrificing privacy. Let’s talk about how this could be fixed: https://hackernoon.com/messenger-problem-why-secure-does-not-mean-private-and-how-to-fix-this-with-blockchain-e5467f410201

“Consumers often trade data for services without grasping how their information can be stored, shared, analyzed, and acted upon, or how much their information is actually worth. The problem of information asymmetries arises over and over again because user agreements have been normalized to be corporation-friendly, not reader-friendly. The agreements are notoriously opaque and present take-it-or-leave-it offers that deprive consumers of bargaining power.”

ADAMANT Messenger: Secure ETH Transfers

Earlier we made an announcement that ADAMANT Messenger web app now includes ETH wallet and supports ETH transfers. Now we explain, how this works exactly.
We followed the path of greatest security by never storing or transferring private keys for these ETH-wallets over the network, like MyEtherWallet does. User has full control over its account.

This is plainly wrong.

Myetherwallet does NOT send out private keys. In fact, you can easily verify this: You can use Myetherwallet to sign transactions offline. This wouldn't be possible if MEW needed to send out privkeys.

No cheap shots please

As I see mainnet already started.
Is any information about delegates nodes?
Does its work like Lisk's nodes - 101 active delegates and usual users can vote for them?

This is correct, ADAMANT does not send private keys over network also. Please read the article, verify code on the Github.

Thank you for answer. Is it possible to earn some ADMs for voting like it is in Lisk's nodes?
If you know Lisk's nodes share some income with voters. May I get some ADM's for voting?
It should be good reason for buying ADM for investors.

I wasn't talking about Adamant, but about Myetherwallet. The way you wrote it, I read it as "Myetherwallet transfers private keys over the network", which is absolutely wrong.

Reading the sentence again, it can mean both, because you can also read it as "Like Myetherwallet, Adamant won't transfer privkeys over the network."

I assume you meant the latter, so I apologize for my statement. But I stand by the fact that you CAN read the sentence both ways.

Sorry.
We mean Myetherwallet does not send private keys over network and ADAMANT does not send private keys over network.
