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!

With today’s upgrade to the XMTP protocol, we are bringing the most advanced privacy and security in the world to an entire messaging network and economy. 

The most secure and private groups now in production. 

Privacy extends beyond just whether or not your messages are encrypted. Does the network reveal who you are DMing? What groups you are a part of? When are you sending messages? Does it protect your existing messages if a device gets compromised? Can you send messages securely after an old device gets compromised? Those are the hard things in messaging, and that’s where we have been investing our time to build a communication protocol that can ensure that privacy is a human right for everyone on the planet.

Other messaging protocols and decentralized social networks reveal metadata about who’s talking to whom and what groups you belong to.

XMTP is for your onchain conversations that matter. Your private and and important relationships.
