There wasn’t really a viable path for this without group chat in the protocol. The new version of XMTP includes groups, which just shipped in Converse.

@hardymathieu.eth Coming soon to Converse too. The app will be able to deliver a much more seamless experience with a smart wallet at its core.

“send direct casts and messages through XMTP” Where can I try this? 😍

Oops. Here’s the correct link for gRPC: https://github.com/xmtp/xmtp-node-js-tools/blob/main/packages/grpc-api-client/README.md

Because XMTP groups are end-to-end encrypted and authenticated using MLS, the best way to interface with the network is to use one of the platform-specific client libraries. Here’s React Native: https://github.com/xmtp/xmtp-react-native/tree/beta You can use gRPC if you only need basic publish/subscribe/query operations: https://github.com/xmtp/xmtp-node-js-tools

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.

The massive effort behind this milestone provides a durable foundation for decentralizing the network and - crucially - allows inbox app developers to immediately start innovating with secure, onchain group chat. Start building: https://xmtp.org/docs/build/group-chat

MLS equips XMTP with forward secrecy and post-compromise security in a modern, scalable way. Using default-anonymous blockchain identities instead of phone numbers, XMTP reveals less identifying metadata than other private messaging services with these security properties.

Incredibly proud of @xmtp's trailblazing production implementation of Messaging Layer Security, ratified last year by the IETF as the new internet standard for secure, private messaging.

Congratulations!! Bug report: I'm getting "Error authenticating XMTP" on the enable messaging step.

Forward secrecy is a feature of XMTP groups and coming to 1:1 very soon. We chose the IETF's newer MLS standard over double ratchet, which is less scalable. https://www.ietf.org/blog/mls-secure-and-usable-end-to-end-encryption/

Tomorrow, a historic crypto regulatory bill will move to vote on the floor of the U.S. House of Representatives. FIT21 will create clarity where only regulatory uncertain exists today. We need everyone to pitch in with their support. Start by going here to send your rep a message: https://www.standwithcrypto.org/

do you see this like Plaid (embedded, consistent UX)? or just easier-to-use SDKs and APIs?

Smart wallets will onboard the next billion. XIP-44 brings them to XMTP using ERC-1271 signature verification. This means any smart contract that adds the ERC-1271 interface can use the network directly. Voila: trustless business messaging for NFT creators, DeFi protocols, DAOs, etc.
