The Squad to Squad Chat

In late 2021 Other Internet and Teal Process & Company initiated a secret research project to explore squad wealth. While the Squad Wealth meme spread from group DMs to web3 production software, one key squad primitive was largely overlooked: the group chat. The essential substrate for squads’ co-presence with one another.

The product of this squad communications research was a new concept, the Squad 2 Squad chat, which does to group messaging what DAO 2 DAO does to group finance.

Group Communication Models
Information flows between environments of communication. The Squad 2 Squad Chat is one model of group communication.



The key difference of a SQUAD 2 SQUAD chat is that in the shared chat environment, the messages are delivered by the unified voice of the squad instead of individuals within those squads.

The Power of a Unified Voice
Leave behind the anxiety and pride of your individual identity. Speak through the voice of the squad, from the squad, for the squad, in a resonant polyvocal symphony.

The Anonymous Groupmind
Speaking under the banner of a single identity enables individuals to hide in plain sight. Be wary of potent shitposts and runaway edgelord mayhem.
