Could you build this?

Partial The UI and basic socket server are straightforward, but properly implementing modern end-to-end cryptographic protocols (X3DH key exchange and the Double Ratchet Algorithm) without introducing critical security flaws requires specialized crypto engineering.

What it would actually take: A production implementation requires a secure WebSocket/gRPC message broker, an encrypted SQLite database on client devices, and integration with libsignal or audited cryptographic primitives. The difficult part is correctly handling cryptographic identity key rotation, pre-key bundles, out-of-order message ratcheting, and guaranteeing tamper-proof forward secrecy without relying on phone numbers or emails.
