Beware, this appears to be produced by the same group that is behind the goldbug, echo, spot-on, dooble, etc line of highly questionable applications. This announcement was bcc'd to me while obviously already here, that's stupid so I'll bash them for that game too. Note also their renewed attempt at EFF alignment, this time by copying the visual recognition of the EFF scorecard model. Hi EFF :) Reviewing their code is highly encouraged, even people creating a bounty for doing that... after all, outing possibly big scam organizations like this is just as credworthy as earning the next CVE for rooting the OpenBSD kernel, etc. Anonymous development is a legitimate thing, however this group is just bizarre. Given their ethical and other issues called out earlier on these lists (search: goldbug)... be *extremely* careful before elevating any of their suite to anything more than nonproduction snakeoil.

Smoke is the mobile crypto chat, which is open source, allows you to use your own decentral chat server, does not send your phone number to central servers or friends, and fifth, is able to define your own end-to-end enctypting passwords manually by your individual choice. So far no other application might match these five criteria.
Further SmokeStack seems to be one of the first open source crypto chat server on mobiles (Android).
