No, I'm saying that this whole event looks amateurish, without careful planning and coordination beforehand, which would have avoided the need to idle in a chat room, waiting for instructions.

The generals involved surely had secure means of communication which isn't logged, or at least knew what not to use, in case they want to deny events.

Using a random messaging app, believing that it's encrypted, and that being enough, is very naive.



The use of the app wasn't the reason why the coup failed.

I'm also skeptical that a conspiracy involving thousands of individuals (all using this one app) somehow didn't leak until after the coup? The answer is probably that the purges didn't really have anything to do with the coup.
