It’s been a long since last blog and not to worry it’s going to be another interesting topic. Starting with another newsworthy message, Kik is making a comeback from last time they mentioned they wanted to be out of the whole business and shrinking due to SEC issues. Here is few thoughts on messaging apps that are out there:

Kik is the best friend that is pen pal with Tinder and other major dating apps that don’t want to be exploiting your information to the strangers. They haven’t been publishing content as of WhatsApp with the terrorists organizations or even Telegram being encrypted rather they stayed their own lane.

Another factor is Kik has been able to survived the Darwinism of hunger games within startups in tech world over the past decade as most of the companies in messaging communication have been bought out by Google and Facebook or merged with other technology companies. Kik stayed in their own lane and made their name differently. Kudos to them for being the underdog and go to friendly in this environment.

Another factor with Kik is they introduced cryptocurrency which people can use fraud scams and other methods of haggling one another easier and competing with the likes of Facebook Libra. They are the only two companies that utilize social media and messaging with cryptocurrency as they see a method to have some sort of relation which is odd correlations. Although it’s easier to transfer money than before with such methods.

Another factor is that Kik should introduce calling services on their app to become more transparent as of Facebook messaging and WhatsApp rather than just being telegram anonymous. At the moment they are making the name for being a Dropbox file sharing with messaging to the public and making some moves which is not going anywhere besides just having people share information and harass one another.

Kik is user friendly and allows you to be your own phishing avatar that others won’t catch you which you can become anonymous online and different on other platforms. This is really sketchy and on point with the low morale that it receives and allows people to go off from their app for not being able to have more users in the long run!

On the contrary, Kik is another chatting app that is utilizing the evolution of communication messaging when the internet was booming and bringing us back to that point. It is the AOL and Yahoo messaging of the good old days that you can join groups and chatting messages where you can be your own self.

Now in the year of 2019, there are tech companies similar to Kik that thrive on the old method tradition and able to preserve the aspect of the authenticity with a little touch of modernization of cryptocurrency. Such features makes it unique and bold to stay thriving in the business. However, those touches makes us humble and remember the good old days behind the computer monitors waiting for internet connections!
