Why Thunder
Experience the Power of Blockchain
Our Strengths
With account abstraction and paymaster capabilities built-in, users can enjoy the privacy provided by blockchain encryption while not having to go through web3 shenanigans like approving transactions and paying gas fees
Seamless integration
As part of the Ethereum community from the beginning, we are excited to be able to be the first to take a new technology and apply it to an existing, proven use-case that is enormous: the instant messaging market.
Stay Connected. Stay Private.
Experience a delightful chat experience powered by ERC-4337. So seamless you won’t even know you’re on the blockchain.
Seamless Account Creation
Thunder uses ERC-4337 technology to create an account seamlessly for end users. Users do not need to go through the hassle of understanding and securing seed phrases to interact with the blockchain. The smooth chatting experience makes it such that users do not even know they are interacting via the blockchain.
Secure Messaging
Thunder uses the Elliptic Curve Diffie-Hellman (ECDH) key exchange protocol combined with an AES-256 GCM encryption scheme to provide end-to-end data encryption. All messages are secure and private. This means that only the sender and the recipient can read the messages, and no one else, not even Thunder, can access them.
Decentralized Storage
Thunder stores user data on the blockchain, ensuring that it is immutable and cannot be tampered with. This means that user data is not stored on centralized servers, which are vulnerable to attacks and data breaches. Instead, user data is stored on a decentralized network of nodes, which ensures that it is available at all times and cannot be lost.
User Privacy
Thunder does not collect any user data and does not share it with third-party companies, ensuring that user privacy is protected. this means that users have complete control over their data and can choose what they want to share with other parties.
Gas-Less Payment
Chat contents are written on the blockchain without consumers needing to pay a single dollar. A paymaster concept is introduced in our application to facilitate seamless interaction between users.
Open-Source
Thunder is an open-source project, which means that anyone can contribute to its development and review its code. This ensures that Thunder is transparent and accountable to its users, and that its code is auditable and secure.
