**What solDM is**\
solDM is a serverless, end-to-end encrypted, post-quantum–ready messaging layer built natively on Solana. It enables wallet-to-wallet chat without a centralized inbox, with messaging state anchored on Solana and zk-compressed via Light Protocol. Notifications are delivered via Dialect.

**What solDM is not**

* Not a centralized chat app with a private database
* Not “encrypted chat on top of AWS”
* Not a social network that requires trusting an operator

**Who it’s for**\
Users, teams, KOLs, protocols, wallets, and Solana-native apps that need private, verifiable communication.

#### solDM in 90 seconds

* Wallet-to-wallet inboxes (reachable by address / .sol)
* E2EE by default (keys stay client-side)
* Post-quantum ready key exchange (hybrid)
* zk-compressed on-chain state via Light Protocol
* Spam resistance via message requests + optional attention fees
* Notifications via Dialect without exposing plaintext
