Our use cases are of Twitter too, so it makes a certain sense. We haven't designed the UX yet, but it's meant to convey the idea.
That said, the architecture supports not only Twitter but FB-style friending and private group shares; we want to encourage different clients in different form factors, with the advantage being that they'd all interop. No more siloes.
Yeah, sorry, all of that is irrelevant. You use somebody elses UI on your kickstarter. That is a terrible, terrible idea.
It's an idea terrible enough that it will make people doubt your competence. For me, personally, "building strong crypto" and "lifting the twitter UI because too lazy to whip up some visualization of a simple roadmap" don't go together.
