tête-a-tête
Talk without Tense
The problem tête-a-tête solves
It is well known that traditional chat applications are centralized in nature, meaning all the data is stored on a central server.A major disadvantage of this structure is that if the central server fails, then the entire network will collapse.The WhatsApp server, for instance, stores all of the user data on a central server, if the server is destroyed, there can be a loss of user data, or even the information may be leaked.Each block of data for a user in our application is connected to another block, forming a chain.It is important to note that decentralized applications do not have a centralized server, as the name implies.As well, the data that is stored in the block is almost impossible to view due to the use of very secure encryption and hashing functions (256 bits).
Challenges we ran into
Incorporating blockchain in communication system.
The chatting process nowadays have a mediating node, while our software does not have any mediating device/node i.e., every person is connected by peer-to-peer network and to implement this was a challenge by in itself.
Difficulty in integrtion with legacy system.
