HyperBit

Quick Test

HyperBit is an alternate client for the Bitmessage network. This is a very early release and should mainly be used for testing.

If you have any questions or feature requests please join the [chan] hyperbit (BM-2cUXYTknxwZgp47DKayzKwNfipQRQCmb2m). If you find any bugs be sure to report them here. I can also be reached at BM-NC4h7r3HGcJgqNuwSEpGcSiVij3BKuXa.

The current version only supports channels (no person-to-person messages yet) and simple or trivial encoding (no msgpack).
