Element is used by the Parity team because it fits the true web3 values of decentralisation and "less trust, more truth" principle. It’s fully end to end encrypted and has stronger controls than many other chat platforms (slack, discord).
- End-to-end encrypted channels allow company owners to even distrust administrators from leaking sensitive communication.
- Federated system, if a user has a matrix account on any server, they can join and communicate with us.
- Any user can create channels and invite colleagues or externals to the discussion without asking permission.
Parity communicates with parachain teams using Element. To get started, please visit https://element.io/ and sign up for an account.
