Big day here... 

Ephemera has acquired @converseapp, and as of 9 am EST, we open-sourced it.

Converse is the simplest and fastest app built on XMTP. The Converse team has been building with XMTP since day one, and with the ability to reach over 2m+ identities on XMTP, we are excited to put more resources into building a better future together.

We need to make using crypto as easy as sending a message. We have already started implementing secure groups into Converse and we have so much more work to do so everyone in the world has a secure messaging application that is native to crypto.

Everything starts with trust.

The world needs an open, secure, and decentralized communication platform. One that everyone can trust to build on and use.

That’s why we are open-sourcing the application layer, which is also built on the open & secure XMTP network.

The Converse TestFlight is the first time in 2.5 years of working on XMTP where I have been a DAU consistently for weeks as a consumer. 

Can’t wait for you all to try it.

Since day 1, devs have asked us for 1 thing: secure + private group chat. 

Today, we are stoked to announce the production launch of XMTP groups, leveraging MLS to bring the most secure, privacy preserving, soon-to-be decentralized group chat to devs.

A big thank you to our core team, led by @nplasterer, and the amazing XMTP developer community for your continuous support & feedback -- we couldn't have achieved this milestone without you. 

And a special shoutout to Cryspen for building OpenMLS and helping us integrate it securely!

You can build a group chat protocol in a day or two. Not that hard.

Building one that respects user privacy is a different story. Congrats to the team on shipping a version of group chat in line with our core values around privacy and security. 

Getting all those checkboxes on the same chart is no small feat.

Proud to announce support for Frames in XMTP messages!

I hear you all are into this Frames thing. We’re pretty excited about it at XMTP too. 

Just published a proposal for how XMTP could support and extend Frames and bring them into DMs.
