enhance: reply to prayer request messaging system #95

Open fogoat opened 5 years ago

I'd like to propose a messaging system inside of BiblePay. This would add utility to BiblePay, provide more donations to orphans, and promote Christian values. Currently, we can post Prayer Requests that rotate in the Overview page. We want to promote strengthen the Christian community by praying for each other. This makes concrete a prayer request that may or may not be read or replied to.

There is a small fee attached to the reply that is sent to Orphan Foundation based on message length, network congestion, and/or how many you sent recently (Proof of Prayer difficulty). To discourage spamming, you'd pay a higher fee (HashCash) if you send many messages in a short period of time. The ability to block the sender or not receive messages at all is important to stop trolling, verbal abuse, etc.

This can introduce individuals that may not understand cryptocurrency to BiblePay. This also aligns well with writing to orphans through the wallet.
