Signal tests payments in the UK using MobileCoin

The encrypted chat application signal is adding payment to the services it provides, a long-awaited move and an organization taking its time. Only in the United States will beta program users be able to trade cryptocurrency MobileCoin quickly, easily and most importantly, privately. If you are in the US or have some way to attend, you will notice a new signal-giving feature in the app when you update.

All you have to do to use it is to link the mobile coin wallet to your cryptocurrency exchange FTX after purchasing something, just list it now. Once you link up, you will be able instantly send MOBs to someone else, including a linked wallet, much easier than sending a chat. (There is no word on when the beta will roll out to other countries or currencies.)

Just as there is no access to any kind of signal in the messages, you send or in the calls you make, your payment is completely private. MobileCoin, which has been working on the signal for years, built from the ground up for speed and privacy, using a zero-knowledge proofing system and other innovations to make it as simple as Venmo … as well as signal well. You can read more about their approach in this paper (PDF).  MobileCoin snatched more than $11 million in funds last month amid rumors that the merger was approaching preparations. More whispers drive MOB values ​​into the stratosphere as well, for those who own it but not for those who want to use it to repay food.

All of a sudden you gave your friend a binge (or maybe now in the US, a Turing) for no apparent reason, or you underestimated the sandwich since lunch.  Of course, there is no reason to hold on to your currency, but switching it to a stable or fiat currency; every time seems like a rare task. While talking to Wired, Signal co-founder Moxie Marlinspike envisioned an automated trade-out system, although he rarely gets away with such information if there is anything under active development.

There is some risk of being involved with cryptocurrency with a mixed reputation in the field, although the goodwill signal has evolved into a secure and isolated service provider, where the team feels it is inevitable.

After all, if popular payment services monitored similarly on your email and social media, we should probably curl it up and get it encrypted from end to end as soon as possible.
