Conversations

Overview

Conversations on Orbis enable a private and encrypted chat between participants.
Some conversation metadata and all of the messages are automatically encrypted with Lit Protocol.

Use case

Conversations can facilitate private discussions between your users.
All messages are automatically encrypted and can only be accessed by the participants.

This means neither Orbis nor Orbis-powered app developers can read content unless they are a participant.

Some examples include:

• private messaging on Marketplaces
• message inboxes on social apps
• end-to-end encrypted messaging apps
• chatbots, including an encrypted version of ChatGPT
