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.

Let’s talk about why we believe in open-sourcing everything. Converse and XMTP. We are building the most open and secure developer platform in the world—one that all developers can trust to build on, unlike the centralized platforms of the past, such as Facebook, WhatsApp, Telegram, Zynga, etc. I spent the past 15 years of my career building on top of the Big Tech platforms. This means I spent the last 15 years of my career getting the rules changed, promises broken, and ultimately getting my businesses killed or forced to sell because I built on top of centralized platforms. To protect global communication, we must create a more open and secure communication layer for the internet. We cannot risk building on top of protocols owned by a single company or, in some cases, a single person. We deserve a messaging network that is more aligned with the entire crypto community and our core values of openness, security, and decentralization.
