I like your solution 2 and this comment is sixty four characters

However, does that include the id of the sender as well?

The freeing aspect is that usefulness has been largely sacrificed upfront.

Text surrounded by asterisks (*) is italicized.

Text surrounded by plus signs (+) is bolded.

Text surrounded by vertical bars (|) is quoted. If you double-click a paragraph, it will be quoted.

Text surrounded by tildes (~) is blocked out.

Symbols such as *, +, |, and ~ can be used literally by placed a \ in front of the text.

A user's name surrounded by at signs (@) links to their profile, and the user is notified that you mentioned them.

A word surrounded by hash signs (#) becomes a tag and links to posts with that tag.

Text after a blank line that is indented by two or more spaces is reproduced verbatim in a different font.

URLs become links. However, new users cannot post links in comments.

Hubski URLS become embedded cards, displaying information about the post or comment.

Text can link to URLs by using the following format: [linked text](http://theurl.com)

Youtube, Vimeo, Soundcloud, Twitter, and Spotify urls will embed the content automatically.

Image URLs (.png, .tif, .gif, and .jpg) will embed automatically.

Oh I was not clear 64 legal characters the 26 letters of the alphabet X 2 (upper and lower case) 0-9 and "?" , "." but maybe that is just a 6bit fantasy. during discovery bluetooth sends packets back and forth I think we just need to put the message and id in one of those packets. May need more research.
