XMTP’s Mascot—Inspired by XMTP’s World of Private Messaging
Imagine if XMTP had a mascot, what would it be? A cute, red-crowned, black-and-white woodpecker with an “X” logo on its chest. This woodpecker isn’t just a cute cartoon character; it perfectly embodies XMTP’s brand identity.
- Woodpecker: Nature’s "Tree Hole Creator "and “Privacy Guardian”.
Woodpeckers are known for their unique habit: they repeatedly tap tree trunks with their hard beaks, not only to forage for food but also to create tree holes as nests or hiding places. In nature, these tree holes often serve as shelter for other animals and even secret “storage rooms.”
-
The woodpecker: In the traditions of many Native American tribes, it is considered a “messenger” and a symbol of “good luck”.
-
So, the woodpecker was chosen as the XMTP mascot, symbolizing “the creation of privacy” and “messenger.”
The encryption features of the XMTP protocol: quantum-resistant security, decentralized infrastructure, and integration with digital wallets make messages as safe and reliable as a tree hole.
