This September we’re teaming up with ENS to run a crypto corner store at ETH Global NYC, powered by XMTP.​

A huge thank you to everyone who participated and made ETH Paris such an exciting event! The projects we saw being built with XMTP were truly inspiring. They brought forth the many use cases that XMTP’s protocol unlocks: from improving DAO governance with group chats to facilitating freelance work through bounties and crypto payments in chat.

Last Saturday, we had the incredible opportunity to attend ETH Waterloo. For those who may not know, Vitalik went to college in Waterloo, and the first ETH Global event was also held there. We couldn't help but feel the infectious energy and excitement for the future of blockchain technology.

I have a feeling that most of you reading this have experienced that magic when collaboration, innovation, and plain ol' FUN converge in a project you're working on.

We felt that 🔥 recently and thought we'd share the journey with you, along with some code for the tool we built.

Follow these steps to start sending image attachments to wallets within your chat app. Our sample app includes everything you need to connect to wallets with Thirdweb's WalletSDK, use XMTP's remote attachments, and upload larger files to Thirdweb's storage.

Discover the WhatsApp for web3: end-to-end encrypted messages between wallets, that only you own and can take with you anywhere.

With Notifi, XMTP in-app messages can now trigger notifications to any web2 app, so devs can reliably reach their end-users without compromising on security.

Let's talk about some new content types for XMTP.

What's a content type? A content type is a way to describe the type of content a message contains on XMTP. Out of the box, XMTP's SDKs support one content type: text.

Here's the thing though: messaging has been more than just text since way back in 2002, when your LG VX8100 was blowing up from MMS.

So we decided to propose some new content types: Attachment and RemoteAttachment. These new content types support rich media (images, videos, gifs, etc.) and will let you bring your messaging experience to the cutting edges of the early aughts.

If you’ve been in the web3/crypto community for longer than an hour, you’ve probably seen a strange message that seems to accompany every Discord server. Something that looks like this:

We will never DM you 🫣​
