What problems does XMTP uniquely solve?

Most of the documentation explains how XMTP works:

  • Decentralized messaging
  • End-to-end encryption
  • Wallet identity
  • Interoperability
  • Agent SDKs

But I still struggle to answer a more fundamental question:

Why should a developer choose XMTP over existing approaches?

  • What problem does it solve?
  • How is that problem solved today?
  • What makes XMTP a better choice than existing approaches?
