What your email could look like in Web3

Forget about tracking decentralized autonomous organization votes, decentralized finance transactions, or data breaches across many channels and platforms.  Your Web3 mailbox will handle it for you without requiring your phone number or legacy email address.

Web3 communications companies promise to build the first generation of blockchain-based messaging platforms that will handle all your decentralized autonomous organization votes, decentralized finance transactions, and data breaches.

Hashmail is an India-based startup that offers users the possibility to exchange emails through their existing wallet addresses.

EtherMail, a platform offering encrypted wallet-to-wallet communication, is attempting to address the communication friction in the industry by helping users understand and engage with their chosen communities.

Web3 emails aren't a threat to Web2 message providers in the short term, but may increase in adoption in the long run as users seek fundamental advantages, such as decentralized storage and privacy.
