I need someone to write the OpenChat from start to end as I don’t have the resources.
It would certainly be very nice to see an OpenChat doing the same thing. But I am wondering what the purpose is. The goal of a Telegram bot is attract new users to the IC by introducing frontend hosting to them. There is a large user base and we make it easy for them by using Telegram as a payment rail. Those users may have tokens, especially USDT, in their Telegram wallet or TON Space. They can get started with a canister without touching ICP or cycles.
OpenChat users are are completely different group. They already have ICP native tokens. And I don’t see the benefit of a bot interface either. It would be easier to manage your canisters from a web app. Kind of a GUI version of dfx where you log in with II.
