just curious on your thoughts on why anyone would use this when Telegram is a thing?

warpcast has a ton of differences to twitter. this is a private group messaging app. I can get that on telegram, here on warpcast, whatsapp, etc. the list goes on and on. What is special that makes XTMP stand out? I know why Warpcast stands out, but what XTMP over telegram, whatsapp, etc? never answered my question

Lots of good reasons: 1. XMTP is a protocol. So, many apps can use the same protocol, like how Farcaster works on Warpcast, Super, Buttrfly, Phaver etc. The other apps you mention don’t even allow messages to interoperate, let alone accounts to be portable from app to app. 2. XMTP connects to ethereum addresses meaning you can send and receive messages without a phone number or any KYC. It also can read onchain data so you could connect with Farcaster followers or Lens followers or holders of whatever NFT etc. 3. The cryptography used by the newest version of XMTP is superior to what’s used on the apps you mentioned, and Telegram is not even E2E encrypted by default.

this is sick!! really like it being a protocol + the 0x feature, super nice being able to connect with an addy (telegram makes you use phone # hard to make alternate account) honestly not the biggest telegram fan, the spam is fuckin horrendous def gonna give XMPT a look, thanks for this info!

Nice. I agree about Telegram. The only issue for XMTP that I’ve found is just not enough people using it. So try to get your friends in the space to use it. Another cool feature is that Hey, one of the major Lens apps, uses it for DMs and Family and Coinbase wallets both have it built in, so there’s potential for pretty rapid on-boarding if people try
