I'm curious what everyone's thoughts are about this app: https://telegram.org/. Is this less secure theoretically than Xchat? Apparently it has some "secret chat" mode that uses end-to-end encryption.

Is it centralized? Are they subject to law enforcement? They have servers and claim to have self destructing messaging.

I would say secure, but if law enforcement wanted to get their hands on data they could.

Yeah, their claim is that the secret chats can only be accessed from the two communicating devices and are not stored on their servers.

If I have a backup of my wallet.dat, do I need to make another one when I install a newer version of the wallet? Or is one .dat file compatible across all versions?

If the wallet.dat file was not compatible across all versions how would you be able to keep your current coins when upgrading the wallet?
Oke, so what do you do then?

If you have many addresses in one wallet.dat and many transactions in It I usually transfer all the coins to a new wallet unique address and make a new wallet.dat file to avoid any risks of corruption...these corruption risk I anyway believe is very unlikely to happen

Yes it is compatible... however new private keys are created when using private transactions. so you will want to maintain a current backup at all times

I'm not sure if it is still the case, but it was said that the only time you need a new backup is when you create a new receiving address/change address...  So while one .dat is compatible across versions, I believe you only need to worry if you have created new addresses or done transactions and had new change addresses created automatically for you.

Wallet.dat files are compatable across wallet versions and across operating systems (if you have a linux wallet, you can use that wallet.dat file on OSX and Windows).
