	Description:		✨About Zo ✨ Zo is a chat app, like Signal, built with web3 in mind. Despite being in the modern era of social and chat, the underlying infrastructure is frustratingly antiquated. Using SMS to log in to any platform is extremely insecure and it's akin to driving a horse-drawn cart across an interstate highway—antiquated. But with the advent of web3 identity, now you can drive a Tesla across that highway. It's more secure, privacy-preserving, and it gives you your sovereignty back. As in, you don't need to rely on a third party like AT&T to give you your SMS based identity. Zo, as it happens, uses Celestia for its identity layer, and that's the only part about the chat app that utilizes a blockchain.
