Just updated the XMTP Labs site so people can better know who we are, why we are here, and what we believe. xmtplabs.com
If you're tired of building the old internet, come build with us.

Open source is so damn cool.
Someone built an open source Android version of @convosmessenger - anyone want to try it or work on it once it’s a little more tested?
I used it today, and it actually worked :)

XMTP Network update to start the year... 2026 is about to rock and roll.

The World Chat launch on December 11 marked a signi...

Communication must be decentralized
What good is quantum encryption if a company or country can shut the servers?
Anyone, with just a private key, can send a secure message anywhere in the world.
That’s XMTP.
This is the future of messaging.

In 2026, we are going to focus on XMTP supporting new networks and identities.
What identities / networks should XMTP focus on next?
- Solana
- Bluesky
- Nostr
- other?
XMTP is agnostic to network, identity, or chain. It’s a passkey at the core and can be associated with any digital identity.
We are working o...

“Group chat is your private social network.”
We had @chintan, head of engineering for the base app, on our show yesterday and we heard:
> Why group chat is your private social network
> DMs and group chats in the @baseapp.base.eth are end to end encrypted and built on @xmtp @shanemac.eth

Own XMTP.
Own our freedom to communicate.
For decades, our most important conversations have been owned by the world's largest corporations.
Big Tech mined our words, captured our metadata, and turned our connections into profit.
But private communication should never be owned by a company. It should be protected, ...

I see people get this really wrong.
Tokens can be built by communities, but communities aren’t built by tokens.
This is the thing people have really gotten backwards.
The most powerful networks and relationships are never about money, so it’s something to deeply understand when money is involved.

You can’t make people happy. But you can make them productive, and they can choose to be happy.

This screen share of @baseapp.base.eth chat making predictions on sports w/ an agent is how all sports betting should work.
Add the @brackyhq agent to a chat with friends talking sports
The agent coaches me and lets me reply to predict.
It’s like a coach + bookie in group chats

Vulnerability is always the key to building long-term relationships. In life and in business. Especially in business.
I can’t legally say their name, but working with the number one brand in the world taught me that leading with the truth never fails.

Which one of these is simplest to understand?
1.
A global messaging network built on keys, not accounts.
Powered by tokens. Secured by XMTP.
2.
A key-based messaging network, powered by tokens.
Secured by XMTP.
3.
A key-based communication network for any identity.
Permissionless. Token-powered. Secured by XMTP.
Someone asked me to explain @xmtp in 3 steps. Here ya go…
Any identity. Any app. Any key.
XMTP is a global communication network where any digital identity can reach any other digital identity—without permission, without lock-in, without trust in a single company.
At the core, it’s just three things:
