Tether CTO: Testing mobile app Keet with features such as P2P voice calls

Tether CTO LianGuaiolo Ardoino announced that they are testing the mobile app Keet. The app will provide true P2P voice calls, blind mirroring, and product stability. Once released, the team will focus on features, integrations, and the P2P plugin marketplace. The app will be permanently free and will not have centralized infrastructure.

Earlier this year, Tether, Bitfinex, and the Hypercore open-source protocol team collaborated to launch the peer-to-peer communication app Keet based on the underlying technology Holepunch. Keet allows sharing of end-to-end encrypted data only between participants in a call, with video operating through direct connections without the need for performance-restricting servers. In addition, when sharing files on Keet, there is no need to wait for uploads; other peer participants can immediately download from the source. Keet also has built-in Bitcoin Lightning and USDT micro-payments. Holepunch aims to make Hypercore more accessible, providing a range of easy-to-use, collaborative P2P data structures that allow developers to primarily focus on building applications without needing to be network or P2P experts.
