I'm very excited and proud to introduce my newest project for the Steem-Ecosystem:
Steem Messenger (Beta)
Steem Messenger is the easiest way to communicate with other Steem users through the blockchain (on-chain) via transfers.
These messages (transfers) can be sent in plain text or in encrypted format (with your private memo-key).
The project is currently in beta, open-source and available for Windows, Mac & Linux on Github:
Releases: https://github.com/therealwolf42/steemmessenger/releases
Bug Reports: https://github.com/therealwolf42/steemmessenger/issues
Source Code: https://github.com/therealwolf42/steemmessenger
For Utopian: This also the initial release as previous development has been done on a private repository
Features
Customized chat design - based on the look and feel of Discord.
Messages (transfers) can be sent in plain text and encrypted format.
The needed keys (active & memo) can be imported directly into the messenger or derived from the password, which are then saved in an encrypted format (with an encryption password) locally on the computer.
Incoming Messages are automatically fetched every x minutes (default: 10 minutes - can be customized) and also decrypted (if messenger is unlocked - more about that below)
The Messenger has to be unlocked in order to send any messages / decrypt new messages and will automatically lock itself after a period. (default 60 minutes - can be customized)
Notifications for new messages (currently not working on Linux)
Multiple accounts supported
Steem users can be blacklisted to block transfer spammers - additionally, Smartsteem.com is providing a global-blacklist consisting of known spammers & scammers.
Settings can be configured dynamically
Notification when a new version is available
Important: Beta Version
Steem Messenger is currently in Beta. While careful development and testing has been done - bugs should be expected. @therealwolf or smartsteem.com cannot be held liable for unknown issues, loss of funds (SBD & STEEM) or mistakes made by the user.
Now, since we have the important message above out of the way - let me show you what you prob. all have been waiting for:
The Messenger live in action!
Live : Sending Messages
As seen in the gif above - messaging is only possible when the wallet is unlocked and an active key imported. Encryption is only possible when the account's memo key has been imported as well.
Getting Started
Adding your first account to the messenger is really easy and takes only a minute.
The keys can be either imported directly or derived from your password. An encryption password has to be entered as well to unlock the wallet & decrypt your keys.
Interface
There are multiple functions on the main interface:
1.) Unlock / Lock the Messenger
2.) Open Settings
3.) Get newest messages (if new are available)
4.) Start new conversation with enter or a click on the arrow
5.) Hide all current and future messages from that user by putting him/her on the blacklist
6.) Send a transfer
Multiple Accounts
You are able to add multiple accounts to the Messenger.
While only one can be selected at a time - the data is saved locally for all your accounts.
Nodes
You are able to choose your preferred RPC-Node.
I personally really like rpc.build.team.io but api.steemit.com is great as well. However, at the time of writing - api.steemit.com is causing small problems with the messenger - so I temporary disabled that option.
Blacklist
Users can be put on your individual blacklist.
I personally don't have any individual users on my blacklist, because all of those are already on smartsteem's global blacklist - so I just chose @samrg472 - who is of course no spammer!
Settings
These settings can be customized by you:
Use Smartsteem Blacklist
If you want to use the global blacklist consisting of spammers and scammers powered by Smartsteem.com
Default Encrypt Messages
If this setting is enabled - the encrypt checkbox is always checked by default.
Default Currency
Whether you want to use either SBD or STEEM as your preferred currency.
Update Interval
Every x minutes (10 by default) the messenger is checking for new messages. Minimum value is 1 minute.
Unlock Timeout
x minutes (60 by default) after unlocking of the messenger - it will be locked again and the decrypted keys will be reset.
Last Words
Honestly, I'm so excited to have finally finished the first version of the messenger.
I really hope that many of you will find it as useful as me.
And please keep in mind that it is still Beta - so bugs will arise. And if they do - let me know on Github through issues. (link is at the beginning of this post)
Also: I was able to work and focus nearly primarily on the messenger in the last few weeks due to the success of Smartsteem.com.
So I want to thank every vote-seller, delegator & vote-buyer / bidder for indirectly giving me the space & possibility to focus on a project - which has the primary goal of enhancing Steem and your experience with it!
Oh and if you believe that I bring value to Steem, then please vote for me as witness with a click on my signature below. (or with your favorite method).
Thank you!
While I applaud the development effort, I’m wondering why this is actually necessary.
You can currently send messages to anyone. You can encrypt those messages. You can receive and read those messages. They already require keys and a minimal 0.001 fee.
Why would anyone need to use this specific “Steem Messenger?” It has all of the same required functions as current wallet transfers...but does not improve the messaging system. It’s pretty much exactly the same, except you would now use another third-party app.
Am I missing something here?
Downvoting a post can decrease pending rewards and make it less visible. Common reasons:
Submit
Because it's a pain in the ... to use the Wallet transfers. The memo key isn't saved, because most users log in via their posting key and this results in encrypted messages not being automatically decrypted and encryption not working without a login with your memo-key.
And even if you login with your memo key to read those messages & encrypt - you still have to enter your active key afterwards.
So yes - I used the wallet in the past and it works, but it is simply too complicated, waste of time and insecure entering the keys so often.
Nevertheless, I appreciate your comment!

It’s really no more complicated or time consuming than logging into a third-party service and using it to send a message. And the security issue remains to be seen. I actually feel pretty secure not having my keys saved and only needing to use them when they’re necessary.
I use the existing wallet transfer functions all the time with no issues. Is this new service mainly for noobs? People who don’t know the simple features/functions of the current Steem wallet?

What do you mean with third-party-service?
You got to have them saved somewhere - otherwise how do you use them?
Downvoting a post can decrease pending rewards and make it less visible. Common reasons:
Submit
Your software is a "third-party service" (But so is Steemit, Busy and any other front-end, since the blockchain cannot be accessed without the use of such implementations).
I think that by this he meant easily accessible and always "active" (like when you use your browser's password manager to automatically input your password regardless of the user, and using cookies to keep the password wif logged in your session).
But with proper safety measures, this messenger would not be a security risk, I believe, and would instead make it much faster and safer to send and read transactions (especially if real-time notifs were enabled in the future).
Downvoting a post can decrease pending rewards and make it less visible. Common reasons:
Submit
The security aspects in general for the issue of typing versus storing, it can be secure enough considering the developer did use the appropriate encryption apis, selected the correct ciphers and use a sensitive / aggressive interation count on a key derivation function (KDF).
This proctects against phshing, if correctly implemented.
Also notice I'm not vetting this project, just expressing that is more or less the same about the cryptographycally-soundness, but on the phishing part, a definitive more secure apprach.
I'm on the final rounds of a new wallet development, and I'll publish a doc on how I've secure the keys, using a 6 digit pin code which is resistent to phishing, rainbow tables and other aspects.
The security of the secret-key exchange used by steem is another debate.
I honestly believe on a off-chain approach for the encrypted messages to live. storing numerous and numerous encrypted messages, potentially with the same content possible opens some window to crypto-analysis, but, the end result is not catastrophic, the worse case scenario, a given individual would be able to read encrypted messages.
Glad to extend this conversation further when possible.

Hello @ats-david ! I agree with you, this application is just a better graphical UI to the steem wallet. We still need to give our active key in order to just send messages, which puts our account at risk.
In addition, this is not the real Steem Messenger. Here is the REAL Steem Messenger project : https://steemit.com/utopian-io/@kingswisdom/steem-messenger-v0-0-3-private-beta-session-image-encryption-and-many-more
It is off chain, does not require your active permission, nor to access to your funds, it is scalable at ease, and truly unique by design.
I will unveil the security protocol used in Steem Messenger (the real one) this weekend. Stay tuned for more info on this.

Oh, I didn't realize this was a desktop app, I figured it was a web app, I didn't read the full post. If it were a web app you could request permission from the browser to create alerts.

The App is written with electron-js (chromium). So alerts are available. But I think what you mean are desktop notifications.

One big problem I see with this, how does this affect the steem infrastructure?
As I can see it at the moment, steem has already a huge problem with the existing load. Doesn't that put even more load on it? I mean, let's consider mass adoption of this, this could simply double the load of the blockchain, and we already know that distributed ledgers which rely on bft never scale well.
Downvoting a post can decrease pending rewards and make it less visible. Common reasons:
Submit
You're right that mass adoption of the messenger could increase the load. But my understanding is that @ned wants to have mass adoption for Steem.
And in that case: changes to improve scalability have to be made anyway.
Downvoting a post can decrease pending rewards and make it less visible. Common reasons:
Submit
Of course, they want mass adoption, but since full-nodes are barely taking it at the moment already, this means they're nowhere close to that goal yet. Additionally, every scalability has a limit, and a chat service like that, considering mass adoption, could simply have 10 times the load of the blockchain itself.
Which means, with growing adoption it would have to scale 10 times better with this chat than they'd have to without.
Downvoting a post can decrease pending rewards and make it less visible. Common reasons:
Submit
We're using but a small percentage of the whole potential that this has. I read that we're using around 3% of the max load at the moment. The problem we've been having with bandwidth recently is due to people spamming the blockchain, but I think that it's been solved with a node update by most major witnesses.
Besides, the more people that join the blockchain, the higher the requirements will be for witnesses. They will have to adapt and the blockchain's capacity will increase correspondingly to the increase in users and activity.
Downvoting a post can decrease pending rewards and make it less visible. Common reasons:
Submit
I'm not talking about the blockchain itself, while that's not a problem now, this will definitely be one in the future, especially with chats like that spamming the blockchain. The problems I'm talking about are the full-nodes which are already at the tipping point of them not being able to catch up anymore (At the moment they're barely coming along with 500GB RAM). While the blockchain is an important part to be scalable, there are a lot of other components involved as well.

Damn, I didn't know that the nodes were in such a saddened state. Will the Witnesses be able to handle them if they put more RAM? Would it be affordable?

The Problem is not about the witness nodes, the problems are the full nodes.
The Steem devs have pointed out in their last post that they're working on something to improve the situation. But I guess a lot of things will need a rewrite until this system starts scaling better.

Messages are encrypted (encoded) with your private memo key and the public memo-key of the recipient.
Messages can only be decrypted (decoded) with either your private memo-key or the private memo-key of the recipient.

Ignoring all the negative reviews about this, I completely support this work. I think it will be a good messenger. Once I ended up transferring to steemmarket instead of smartmarket and ended up in a loss. That day I was thinking a feature like this will be useful. Today you have made it possible.
And I don't think you will have to follow anyone to make a transfer to them. So as you mentioned it is pain in the .... Well a good feature. And this can also at a later point in time become a good messenger app becoming a competitor for other normal chatting messengers. Who knows. Necessity induces inventions. Great work @therealwolf.

Boom. This changes everything @therealwolf. :-D Your contributions to the STEEM Blockchain are truly remarkable. Using STEEM's wallet is a bit of a hassle as well all know. This makes it very simple, accurate and fast. I did not know if we could encrypt our messages as well. This feature is very useful for me. And if people are thinking that this to replace Steem.chat and Discord then I hope it will. :-)
The features listed here are not available on any other platform or messenger. I always send messages to users through wallet transfer in the memo when I can't find them on other apps. And at the same time I would want anyone to see those messages other than the receiver.
If someone thinks that these features are not useful to them, then this app is opensource, please suggest some additional features via @utopian-io to enhance this app and I am sure @therealwolf will be happy to implement the great ones. You will get rewarded too. :-D Cheers!

Downvoting a post can decrease pending rewards and make it less visible. Common reasons:

There are two main reasons:
1.) To start a conversation with a Steem Account.
Transfers are getting used by many Steem users but mostly without encryption. It's easier to get in touch with a Steem user through transfers (messages) rather than to try and find the steem.chat or discord name. And the messenger automatically decrypts and encrypts messages for you - so there is no reason to not use encrypted messages.
The conversation can of course be switched to another plattform like discord after the initial few messages.
2.) To easily send transfers to promote your posts e.g. Smartsteem.com
It's really simple to send transfers for promotion of your posts with the messenger. Smartsteem.com also supports encrypted memos by the way ;)

Those are external platforms with individual accounts and requirements (they also request more info than the Steem blockchain does). This is straight on the blockchain, so you should consider the pros of the blockchain as the pros of this messaging app:

Wow I'm super impressed you came up with the time and effort to do this. You are very noble for going out of your way to help out the Steemit community. It's interesting that the messages are sent over the blockchain. Is there any way around sending .001 of SBD? I guess if you're sending messages back and forth you'll break even. What if you send multiple messages and start losing money. I know it's not very much and one thousand Steem messages = 1 Steem, but the idea of sending a message costing something might not sit well with people, because they can generally do it for free. Nevertheless, this is a great step in the advancement of Steemit! :)

Thank you @cryptosharon!
The encryption for the messages is via memo-key, so the same that Steemit uses.
And the encryption for the keys (to save them locally) is via a node crypto library - should be SHA 256 if I'm correct.
It gets every x minutes the updated account history from the blockchain and checks if there are any new ones in there.

I'll have to read the code to learn the specifics then. :) Thank you for answering.
I'm still curious about the second question. Do you think you'll program an automatic listener to the blockchain stream of events to be able to have real-time notifications of incoming messages?

SHA 256 is hash and therefore asymmetric, I guess you encrypt it by some symmetric cypher. You should enforce strong passwords for the encryption because otherwise it might not be very safe.
Downvoting a post can decrease pending rewards and make it less visible. Common reasons:
Submit
You are right about the first part. Sha-256 is a hash function, but it's not symmetric encryption.
symmetric encryption dictates a given key
K
can be used to both transform plain text into cipher text and vice-versa.A hashing function cannot be reversed because it's a large to small key space function, meaning it's only one way, there's no reversing a hash, unless you try all possibilities until you get the result.
There are publica tables on some hashing algos, they are giant covering hashs for the most known combinations.
But, a SHA-256 as the name suggests generates a 256-bit output.
Since one bit can be represented with two distincts values (i.e. 0 and 1)
we have all the possible combinations being
2^256
which is a number I not even know the name.about the string password, that a myth that must fall at any cost.
Humans can NEVER produce strong passwords. It's up to the software engineers and cryptographers to move from a low entropy input to a large entropy input while balancing the computational recurrent cost.

Ok so let me understand this. You are effectively using the Steemit memo system to create a app for sending messages. Would that mean that any payout i receive would be shown in my messages on messenger?
Those that curate a lot have plenty of memo spam with "you received 0.001 SP" etc.
Does that mean that all messages i send via the messenger would be shown on my memo page effectively having no privacy in my conversation?
Not criticizing, just trying to understand it better. :D
Oh now i noticed. So you will encrypt any message sent, somehow making it unreadable on the steemit site? Right?

Everything you send via transfer and add to the memo field is public on the blockchain. The messenger simply displays it in a nice way.

You're using memos, there is no other way to send a memo on the blockchain than through your active key.
Otherwise, you'd have to use posts and comments and other such things.

That looks very interesting. Instead of the blacklist you should offer a minimum price for sending messages. Annoying users with an urge to communicate would simply pay the recipients for getting their messages/insults. I'd find that fair :-)
Regarding the update interval: Is it only possible to send a message every 60 seconds? I thought the duration is 20 seconds for posting content, or does that only apply for comments?
If the time limit was zero and you combine the chat function with DLive, you'd get yourself a nice live cam business. Not the kind of thing I would engage in, but surely a very profitable business. After all, users could pay their cam girl by simply sending a message while the girls (or also guys?) could charge a minimum price for their attention.
I would upvote you now, but my one Cent won't make much of a difference to the 775+$ you already got for the post :-)

Lol, I haven't seen any of those. And it looks like it's pretty easy, just like putting your password.
This is revolutionary, I think. It's the first app I've seen that uses the memo key that was left stagnant in a "maybe it will be of use in the future". Now we have encrypted messaging directly on the blockchain. If people don't know how to use it, well, that's bad for them, but for those who will be able to use it, it will be a huge improvement in authenticated communications.

It's not the first app, here is the real Steem Messenger by the way : https://steemit.com/utopian-io/@kingswisdom/steem-messenger-v0-0-3-private-beta-session-image-encryption-and-many-more.
Actually, having to send 0.001 Steem for each message is pretty archaic.Plus, there's a 3second delay for each transaction, a limitation size of about 2kb per transaction. So no image chats, no data transfer.Plus your discussions are exposed on the blockchain even if it is encrypted.
The real Steem Messenger is off chain based, and have the same level of trust and security as the blockchain. It gives way more scalability, and does not require insane authorization to work

The blockchain is public and the memo of each transfer you make can be easily read by other people. This means that if you send a plain text message, everyone will be able to read what you said. If you want only the intended receiver to be able to read the message, you encrypt it by using the person's public memo key, and the person can only decrypt it by using their own private memo key (which only they can see)
