Just got off an amazing dev call/internal meeting and got so fired up about why we need to be using decentralized messaging like we’ve embraced decentralized money. Wanted to share a clip of what we discussed. We’ve spent 15 years fighting for economic freedom but when it comes our messaging, the most private and intimate part of our digital lives, we will literally use an app that’s owned by 1 guy. One. Single. Guy. It’s insanity. And now there’s a way out, another option. @converseapp built on @xmtp - Open protocol, open app, open platform. Going to try and share more content from internal meetings as we aim to #OpenEverything at Ephemera

2 choices if you’re a developer: Build on top of closed platforms, risk your entire business on top of things you can’t control. Build on top of open platforms, work together to build something that can last. We’ve seen the former play out. I spent years fighting that battle. You always lose. Let’s win.

Our values for decentralized messaging. Here are the 3 pillars of our foundation and everything is now live today! 1. Open source, open standards, decentralized & secure protocol @xmtp 2. Open source app, fork it, change it, make it work wherever you live @converseapp 3. Open source programmable platform & dev tools w/ MessageKit (https://messagekit.ephemerahq.com) - Our platform to build mini-apps & AI Agents. Open Everything. Chat is the new OS. Bots are the new apps.

XMTP is the open and programmable platform for messaging. Programmable DMs and groups change everything with messaging. Messaging is now open. Come build today, where you can’t get rugged and you can’t lose API access. Secure, open, programmable.

The biggest thing we are working on with the new @converseapp is MLS encryption AND no phone numbers required + own your decryption key... DM me for early access to the new MLS encrypted group chat. Decentralized messaging is coming to be the only path forward as Centralized messaging apps continue to change their rules.
