Status: Crypto Wallet, Messeng

Status Research and Development GmbH

About this app

Status combines a private messenger, secure crypto wallet, and Ethereum Web3 DApp browser into one powerful communication tool. Chat with friends and growing communities. Buy, sell, store, and exchange digital assets. Browse the decentralized internet without being exploited for your data.

Status is your operating system for Ethereum.

PRIVATE MESSENGER
Send private 1:1, private group, and public chats without unnecessary middlemen in your communication. Status is a text app that removes centralized choke points from your messages for greater privacy and secure messaging. An encrypted messaging app with end-to-end encryption and privacy by default so nobody other than you and your intended recipient can view your messages – not even Status. Some consider it a secret messenger.

PEER-TO-PEER, BORDERLESS PAYMENTS
Seamlessly integrated with the cryptocurrency wallet, the Status Messenger enables anyone, anywhere to send global payments directly in a chat.

SECURE ETHEREUM WALLET
The Status crypto wallet allows you to securely send, store, trade, and exchange ethereum assets such as ETH, SNT, stable coins such as DAI, as well as NFTs. Confidently take control of your cryptocurrency and digital assets with this ethereum wallet app. The Status blockchain wallet currently only supports ERC-20 and ERC-721 assets; it does not support Bitcoin.

EARN WITH DEFI
Put your crypto to work with the latest decentralized finance apps and decentralized exchanges (DEX) such as Maker, Aave, Uniswap, Synthetix, PoolTogether, Zerion, Kyber and more.

WEB3 DAPP BROWSER
Browse the secure web and access the growing ecosystem of decentralized applications with the secure browser. Status enables access to more than just DeFi – explore the latest marketplaces, collectibles, games, and social networks such as SuperRare, Gitcoin, Dragonereum, Axie Infinity, Open Sea, CryptoKitties, Decentraland and more.

CONNECT WITH YOUR COMMUNITY
Explore, connect, and chat with your favorite communities and friends. Whether it is a small group of friends, an artist collective, crypto traders, or the next big organization - text and communicate with Status communities.

SOCIAL FEEDS
Share what’s on your mind and post updates with your contacts in a truly censorship resistant, state-of-the-art decentralized social network.

PRIVATE ACCOUNT CREATION
Stay private with pseudo-anonymous account creation. When creating your free account, you will NEVER have to enter a phone number, email address, or bank account. Your wallet private keys are locally generated and stored to ensure only you have access to your funds and financial transactions.

Ratings and reviews

Wallet doesn't work. I can see a transaction I made on the block explorer (easy to access within the app) but it's not reflecting in the wallet even after 12h. Just keep getting a message that "transfers history can't be updated". Similarly for dapps, just an empty screen inside every category. I'm not going to waste time testing the chat until the other parts are working.

The app interface, graphics seems to be very solid and beautiful. All it's missing is the feature of Calls, both Voice and Video and the other feature missing is Sending Video Files. Also missing is the feature of Timed Messages and Timed Pictures without the possibility of taking screenshots. I wonder if developers have any plans to introduce all these three features. Because if these three aren't introduced, not many people would want to move to Status from other apps like WhatsApp, TG, Signal

Stay away from this app at all costs! Invest anywhere else if at all possible. There are absolutely zero safeguards in place for novice investors, and their customer service is useless. Unless, of course, you want to be extorted for huge sums of money in order to unfreeze or be able to make withdrawals from your account, then this app would be for you! My next step is to go to all social media sites I can find and warn others away.
