Eppie is an open protocol encrypted p2p email that allows communication between popular decentralized networks as well as web3-to-web2 interaction. It brings the conventional email functionality into web3, so web3 users no longer have to rely on conventional email for communication. At the same time it serves as an entry point to web3 ecosystem for the traditional web users, providing them with a truly private email experience with account ownership and decentralized identity without the complexity usually associated with decentralized key management. It is beautiful and easy to use, just like a normal email client.

Eppie works through a peer-to-peer network, where every devise shares the responsibility in message delivery. The application encrypts the data, breaks it to pieces and stores them on random nodes of the network — the other client machines. The address is also a public key. Only the user can retrieve the data using their matching private key. No one else has access to it, including us, the developers. And no one has the authority to allow or disallow a user into their account. The decision is made on the user’s machine, locally.
