I find keychat (npub1h0u…rwx8) ‘s stamp system to be so refreshing.

1. It’s an honest and sustainable business model.

2. If each stamp can be a tenth of a cent, it’s much cheaper than the SMS days of 2007, for example.

3. Assigning value to sending of messages also incentivizes upgrades to more rich communication like phone, video, or 😲 face-to-face.

I don't believe any messenger that requires the spending of crypto to send every message is ever going to attain mass adoption. It might take off among the niche nostr/crypto audience, but it's never going to be on the level of Telegram or Signal. Requiring crypto is inherently self-limiting.
