Frequently Asked Questions

âť“ What is Aztec Anonymous Messenger?

>>AAM is a privacy-first communication tool built on the Aztec Network. It allows users to exchange messages without revealing identity, metadata, or interaction traces.

âť“ How is this different from regular messaging apps?

>>Unlike traditional apps, AAM uses zero-knowledge proofs to hide sender, receiver, and message data even from the network itself. No phone numbers, no IP tracking, no leaks.

âť“ Is the project open-source?

>>Yes. The project is developed transparently and collaboratively on GitHub. Everyone is welcome to inspect the code, suggest improvements, or contribute.

âť“ Can I use the app right now?

>>Not yet. We're actively building the testnet version. Stay tuned and once it’s live, you’ll be able to try it anonymously.

âť“ Will I need a wallet to use this?

>>Yes, but you won’t need crypto to send messages. We're building a staking pool to sponsor gas fees for users privacy shouldn’t come at a cost.

âť“ How can I contribute to the project?

>>Reach out through GitHub or contact the team directly. Whether you're a developer, designer, writer or just privacy curious you're welcome here.
