Igniting the team and community to build the standard communication protocol for web3 together
Summary
As a collective, our investors bring expertise in email, chat, messaging, security, DeFi, DAOs, NFTs, blockchains, wallets, decentralization, governance, and beyond. We’re excited for this to unlock an opportunity to find more people who want to join us in that mission… The primary factor in raising this capital is supporting our recruiting efforts. • XMTP will be an open source project—from the protocol to client apps to processes and research, we’re committed to building this together with our community of developers, creators, and users. There’s a new generation of startups like XMTP that are taking the primitives from crypto and finding novel ways to apply them to solve the web’s current problems. While there’s more to come, here’s a few things we’re already doing: • No office, replaced by a headquarters on the web with deeply considered practices around remote work • No more vesting cliffs, working towards a better alignment of incentives • Perks and benefits that are more about personal growth than sneaky ways of getting people to stay late at the office Last week as the round came to a close we posted a memo to our internal forum, and we thought we’d share that text below: We cant wait to share more and have been truly humbled by the support so far.
