Sphinx Chat is a messaging service built on top of the Lightning Network. Each message sent and received on Sphinx is actually a transaction on Lightning. This serves to protect against spam and provides a means of monetizing content without trusted third parties. This repository creates the s9pk package that is installed to run sphinx-relay on embassyOS.
Install the following system dependencies to build this project by following the instructions in the provided links. You can also find detailed steps to setup your environment in the service packaging documentation.
Clone the project locally. Note the submodule link to the original project.
