The dm3 protocol for peer-2-peer
messaging, focussed on E2EE,
scalability, privacy, and interoperability.
Messages sent via dm3 follow industry standards for high encryption to ensure highest security.
Provides a robust and reliable platform for communication powered by an open network without any central point of control or failure.
Interoperable with other protocols and applications, enabling seamless communication across different ecosystems.
For decentralized access to public keys and delivery services for secure communication.
Help to drive the adoption and development of the dm3 protocol and support the growth of a decentralized and scalable messaging infrastructure.
The dm3 protocol complies with the demand for a decentralized web3 messaging protocol that offers seamless end-to-end encryption for security and preserving privacy and anonymity both for the sender and receiver of the messages.
How the dm3 protocol works is a true game-changer because it is built on a lean architecture as Layer-0 messaging protocol to avoid unnecessary complexity. The open network of delivery service nodes provides a reliable platform for communication without any central point of control or failure.
The protocol utilizes the Ethereum Name System (ENS) as central but decentralized, blockchain-based registry to enable sender and recipient to find each other’s public keys for encryption and signature verification and information where to deliver messages. Integration of Layer-2, cross-chain, and even off-chain information is easily done utilizing CCIP.
The dm3 protocol is scalable by design. The dm3 ecosystem is capable to manage hundreds of millions of messages. But what makes dm3 unique is to provide an interoperable messaging infrastructure, allowing decentralized messaging across different ecosystems.
With the embedded widget components, messaging functionalities can easily be integrated into existing web2 or web3 applications.
The user isn’t any more restricted to a closed ecosystem or forced to run several different messaging applications but can interconnect with different apps, protocols, or services.
That’s why we’ve initiated the Messaging Interoperability Initiative. Its aim is not to replace successful solutions but to connect.
A healthy diversity in messaging solutions is good for the users – they can decide self-sovereignly which solutions or messaging ecosystem fits best to their needs and preferences.
The dm3 protocol enables secure communication across ecosystems, without compromising security or privacy or trusting an intermediate.
In addition to the desire and need of many users for interoperability, regulatory provisions such as the European Union’s Digital Markets Act also aim to enforce interoperability.
As a layer-0 messaging protocol, the dm3 protocol is ideally suited for connecting existing protocols, services and applications.
The architecture of dm3 allows integration into existing solutions with minimal effort and without compromising security, confidentiality or other special features. Web3 and even web2 messaging applications can then exchange messages with each other.
