For most users, the app uses virtual tokens. We create on-chain transactions for many in-app activities.
People who want to use real blockchain transactions (and claim their SENSE into an EOS account) will upgrade to Sense+. This will generate a local seed from which we can generate keys for (almost) any blockchain.
Sense+ users would have access to more app features and those will include EOS, ETH, and BTC transactions.
Users will be able to easily send EOS, ETH, or BTC to @anyonewithaSenseID in the app.
SenseID+ (SensePlus) Accounts
Additional tokens (e.g. AKOIN) to be integrated.
Attach blockchain identity to SenseID+
Generate EOS Account key
Import existing EOS Account key
We will be integrating Non-Fungible Tokens (NFT/Nifty) to give a provable ownership of channels and stickers to Sense Chat users. These tokens will be transferable / tradable in the Sense Chat app.
Tokenization of channels (NFTs)
Tokenized stickers in chat (NFTs)
Released 9/21/2020
We learned a lot since releasing EOS Chat. We have simplified the login process to use phone numbers - similar to other chat applications.
Initial release of the app for public beta using virtual tokens and testing out the functionality of channels (public chat) and 1:1/groups (private chat).
Users can earn and use SENSE. Activities for SENSE tokens: lock to vouch for a user (staking), lock to join channel (staking), send tokens to another user via transaction from profile or 1:1 chat and via pump in channel.

Authentication via phone number / SMS - only hashes of phone numbers are stored and there is no search by phone number which enhances security
