Supports confidence: Status history is consistent
Weakens confidence: Identity cannot be independently confirmed
Context: Never observed responding

Availability and identity are assessed separately. A responding endpoint does not show that it is operated by the entity it claims to be. Why this matters

Official addresses

Official websitecrypto.cat Source: Wikidata

As published by the operator or by a trusted directory. Lookalikes exist: compare an address with the operator's own site before relying on it.

What it is

Cryptocat is described by Wikidata as “open source encrypted chat application”, classified there as instant messaging client, web application and free and open-source software. Wikipedia's list of Tor onion services includes it, which is why it appears in this directory.

Its recorded inception date is 2011. It also maintains an official clearnet website, which is what automated availability checks on this profile refer to.

Where an official address is on file it is shown on this profile with its source; compare it with the entity's own site before relying on it.
