Can't kill it.
Like mold, it spreads through spores, grows on any surface, and cannot be eradicated. The more you fight it, the more it spreads. Mold is messaging infrastructure built on the same principle.
Noise Protocol XX + ChaCha20-Poly1305. The server stores only encrypted blobs. Not even we can read your messages.
New domain every day. Block one — the client already knows tomorrow's address. Like spores: cut one, a hundred emerge.
uTLS makes traffic indistinguishable from Chrome visiting a regular website. Cloudflare front masks the destination. DPI sees nothing.
Cryptographic identity. Your account is a key pair, not a phone number. No SIM, no tracking, no identity leak.
Same cryptographic framework as WireGuard and WhatsApp. Forward secrecy built in. Zero trust in the server.
SHA-256 seeded by date generates a new domain every 24 hours. Client and server always in sync. Censors always behind.
All traffic routes through Cloudflare. The real server IP is never exposed. Blocking means blocking Cloudflare — and half the internet.
A reverse proxy makes the domain look like a regular website. Active probing sees a tomato shop. Only authenticated clients see the messenger.
uTLS spoofs the TLS handshake. Traffic is byte-identical to Chrome browsing the web. DPI cannot distinguish Mold from YouTube.
12-word seed phrase. Your identity is a key pair stored only on your device. Lose the phone — restore from words. No server involved.
Get the APK from Telegram bot, GitHub, or a friend's link. No app store, no tracking, no account required to download.
Open the app. Your cryptographic identity is created in under a second. No phone number, no email, no personal data. Write down your 12-word recovery phrase.
Scan a friend's QR code, share an invite link, or exchange a 6-digit code. No contact list uploaded. No server knows who you talk to.
End-to-end encrypted from the first message. Your traffic looks like Chrome visiting a website. Nobody can read, block, or trace your conversation.
