Centralized chat apps often enhance discovery by accessing users’ phone contacts — something Keychat doesn’t and can’t do by design. Instead, discovery on Keychat works more organically: when someone starts using it, they tend to invite friends who are also into BTC or Nostr. Keychat is primarily designed as a private messaging app for friends, rather than a platform for connecting with strangers. That said, it can still be used that way — for example, users can include their Keychat ID in their Nostr profile to make themselves discoverable.

Regarding the sentence “I understand that each persona has a different key pair, but feels a missed opportunity,” I’m not entirely sure what you mean — could you clarify?
