Built-in monetization, advertising, federation, and end-to-end encryption.
⚡✅
Lightning Preimage Proof
Donor pastes the BOLT11 preimage their wallet returned at settlement; server SHA‑256-verifies and flips the donation to ✓ confirmed. WebLN auto-confirm in browser; manual paste fallback in mobile clients.
⚙️
Per-channel Opt-out
Channel admin can hide all MM features (Tip, Subscribe, LIVE banner, Lightning) in a specific room with one toggle. Default is on; opt-out is explicit and federated to every viewer.
🎙️
Past Broadcast Bubbles
Every ended stream appears inline in the chat. Recorded → tap-to-play with thumbnail; not recorded → a slim "broadcast happened" bubble with date and host, so the channel timeline stays a single source of truth.
📱
Native iOS & Android
Production apps with My Profile, Create Channel + DM, full Channel Settings (Lightning + MM toggle), inline past broadcasts, and Lightning preimage paste — all on the matrix-rust-sdk.
