Description
Secure chat without DNS or WebPKI
Long description
Ricochet Refresh is a peer-to-peer messenger app that uses Tor to connect clients. When you start Ricochet Refresh it creates a Tor hidden service on your computer. The address of this hidden service is your anonymous identity on the Tor network and how others will be able to communicate with you. When you start a chat with one of your contacts a Tor circuit is created between your machine and the your contact's machine. The original Ricochet uses onion "v2" hashed-RSA addresses, which are no longer supported by the Tor network. Ricochet Refresh upgrades the original Ricochet protocol to use the current onion "v3" ed25519 addresses.
