Secure messaging refers to digital communication systems designed to protect the confidentiality, integrity, and authenticity of messages between parties. These systems employ end-to-end encryption, digital signatures, and other cryptographic protocols to prevent eavesdropping, tampering, and impersonation. They ensure that only the intended recipients can read messages and that messages originate from verified senders. In blockchain contexts, secure messaging can facilitate private interactions or verifiable data exchange.

The ongoing discussion centers on balancing strong encryption with the need for regulatory compliance and preventing illicit activities. Future developments aim for more decentralized and censorship-resistant secure messaging solutions.
