What is Status?

Status is an open source messaging platform and mobile browser to interact with decentralized applications that run on the Ethereum Network.

Status is more than a messenger. Send payments and smart contracts to friends from within chats, and enjoy encrypted messaging by default, using a peer-to-peer protocol that doesn’t rely on centralized servers.

The Status Network Token:

Status aims to build a next generation socio-economic network that gives anyone in the world with a smartphone the ability to own and control their own data, wealth and digital identity. The Status Network Token ('SNT') is a ERC-20 utility token that fuels the Status Network. SNT serves as a crucial part of Status, and is required for:

Governance over the Status Client
Username registration over ENS
Community curation and content discovery
A Decentralized Push Notification Market
The Status Teller Network
The Status Sticker Market
The Status DApp Directory

Decentralized Apps at your fingertips:

With Status your mobile device becomes a light client node on the Ethereum Network, enabling you to access Ethereum’s entire ecosystem from anywhere.
