Sappchat = Chat App + Crypto Wallet
Their tagline, βThe world's first Decentralized Messaging App meets Decentralized Banking powered by Blockchain and Artificial Intelligence Technology,β seems like a convoluted crypto word salad.
What I like:
-
A chat app could potentially onboard millions of new crypto users, and popular chat apps like WhatsApp or Facebook Messenger already have over 1 billion users.
-
They provide encrypted, anonymous, end-to-end communication (no email, phone number, etc. is required).
-
They are down +99% from ATH of $0.05 and only up 3x from ATL, which is one of the indicators I look for in a hidden gem (if there are signs of life). Just getting back to ATH would be a 170x π
-
Approximately 90% of the tokens are in a burn wallet.
-
Only 10% of tokens were allocated to the team and advisors.
-
The company plans to allocate a significant portion of funds toward ecosystem development and growth.
-
There is a 10% buyback and burn mechanism. What I do not like:
-
Combining a wallet and a chat app may pose a risk of fraud and other potential issues.
-
The company claims to have its own L1, SappChain, but I could not find any information about it. The token is a BEP20 token, which is unusual if they have a native chain and a wallet!
-
It is unclear how decentralized the platform is, although hodlers appear well dispersed. The biggest three wallets hold 2.45%, 1.56%, and 1.4%, respectively of the tokens, and after the 10th biggest wallet, the holdings drop to less than 0.01% per wallet.
-
It is not clear how the app operates on the blockchain. If everything were "on-chain," users would need to pay gas fees to post or reply to messages, but there is no information.

Sappchat is only listed on one CEX (Bitrue), with no DEX listings. Bitrue is not even a mid-tier CEX. Show Less
