11 hours ago
  • Claim a universal handle to link socials and share public keys; private keys stay device-local.
  • Post-quantum encryption (X25519, ML-KEM-768, XChaCha20-Poly1305) secures messages across existing apps.
  • Two usage modes: handle-based (auto key discovery) or anonymous (manual invite trading).
  • Ekko operates as a layer on top of messengers like Instagram, WhatsApp, Telegram; no new app required.
  • Private key never leaves the device; only public keys are published via Ekko.
  • Start using in browser, with keyboard integration planned next.
  • Open source code ensures basic functionality remains free forever.
