Hello, Why does it requires to contact the team in order to get an account and start using it ? This is never going to spread like uTox or Ring do. I wanted to try, but that's kind of... Disturbing. Good luck anyway.

Well, you can read this link for the answer: https://bitchat.im/faq.html#q2 . It is however possible to use it anonymously by configuring a anonymous proxy or using Tor Network.

That, I understand, but in this situation they need to answer. They never answered to me. Therefore, I can't use their application. Is the project down ?

I am myself the maintainer of this project and I do answer all queries that I receive by email. You can ask me any query that you have in mind. Secondly, the project is still in its early stage and a lot of changes to it are being planned. I am open to suggestions and will be happy to implement whatever is feasible to make this project useful.
