    Summary: Send encrypted messages
    Description: 
    Bitmessage is a P2P communications protocol used to send encrypted messages
    to another person or to many subscribers. It is decentralized and
    trustless, meaning that you need-not inherently trust any entities like
    root certificate authorities. It uses strong authentication which means
    that the sender of a message cannot be spoofed, and it aims to hide
    "non-content" data, like the sender and receiver of messages, from passive
    eavesdroppers like those running warrantless wiretapping programs.
