Based in London and founded in 2020 by Emmanuel Gabriel, OBMeet is building decentralized privacy-preserving communication protocols that protect metadata, partially as an ethical end goal and partially for business reasons, but also as a fundamental building block of decentralized applications. OBMeet will be the new protocol to handle transient messaging and video conference at scale.
The company believes this is a necessary cornerstone for enabling the mainstream adoption of DApps and could be the next major destination where global users engage, buy, sell, play, and work.
