Why? They use same algos, same scheme. Just add support for matrix message format in your app.
WhatsApp is closed source, and obviously it must be able to decrypt messages for the end user to read them. Anything could happen to the unencrypted data at this point. Therefore it's less secure allowing conversations to flow into that app.
Re-read my comment please. I'm talking about Matrix, not whatsapp. Not downvoting because you are correct, but it is out of context.
Thanks for clarifying, my bad!
