Vendor ChatScan as the immutable message ledger, add a messaging bridge and web UI that registers users by phone number, encrypts messages, and records only ciphertext hashes on chain. Flutter 1:1 sends also commit to ChatScan. Includes e2e tests, screenshots, and a demo video. Co-authored-by: Erickson Hyppolite Poel <EricksonAtHome@users.noreply.github.com>
Ship a runnable flutter_demo client with phone OTP login and WhatsApp-like chat UI. Messages seal through the ChatScan bridge (hash-only on chain). Includes Android project, web runner, screenshots, and demo video proving Alice→Bob send/receive with contentAvailable=false.

Peer-to-peer Flutter and web chat now use CrypterChat-style bubbles with message text and timestamps only. Ciphertext refs/hashes stay on the ChatScan explorer (long-press for optional seal details). Conversation previews use decrypted last-message text. Co-authored-by: Erickson Hyppolite Poel <EricksonAtHome@users.noreply.github.com>
Users can run their own messaging server, paste its base URL into CrypterChat, and keep encrypted chat data on that host while hashes still seal on the shared ChatScan X11 chain. Co-authored-by: Erickson Hyppolite Poel <EricksonAtHome@users.noreply.github.com>

CrypterChat users can run their own chat server, paste its base URL into the app, and keep encrypted chat data on that host. ChatScan stays shared for immutable ciphertext hashes only.
Also includes the normal peer chat UI (readable bubbles; hashes only on ChatScan).
