Crypto wallet MetaMask hit the 1 million monthly active users last month on the rise of decentralized finance (DeFi) apps, DAOs, and blockchain games, the firm said in a release today.
MetaMask has exceeded 1 Million Monthly Active Users! 🎉We’re humbled to be supporting such a curious, vibrant and passionate community. To learn more about our growth journey, check out our latest blog post 👉 https://t.co/BJJFtQtznl#metamask #ethereum #web3
— MetaMask (@metamask_io) October 5, 2020
MetaMask is an extension for accessing Ethereum-enabled distributed applications or "dapps" using popular browsers like Google Chrome. The extension can “read” Ethereum code on any website, providing users with a seamless and accessible took to interact with various dapps and blockchain products.
The firm said that significant growth in the “adoption of DAOs, Web3 games and the rapid consumer uptake of DeFi products” cause an uptick in user growth and adoption, especially as users found they could use one dapp to access hundreds of others.
MetaMask’s user growth closely mirrors the rise of DeFi applications this year. In fact, a chart showing the “total value locked” (TVL)—a measure of the number of cryptocurrencies stored and staked on a particular dapp—is similar to MetaMask's rise in user growth, as the image below shows:
“This 2020 curve parallels the trend in DeFi adoption, indicating that new users are coming to MetaMask specifically to participate in the decentralized finance revolution,” noted MetaMask on the correlation.
Ethereum wallet MetaMask released a private beta version of its upcoming mobile browser yesterday, giving developers a chance to provide feedback. The mobile browser will let users access the Ethereum blockchain, store funds and use decentralized applications, or dapps. This is a mobile version of the desktop MetaMask wallet, which similarly allows users to interact with the Ethereum blockchain. Currently the desktop version has more than 1.3 million users and recorded 1 million transactions in...
MetaMask said cryptocurrency storage is a thinly-used feature in the current market, “When you think about it, people don’t really want a wallet. They want to invest, sell, lend, borrow."
“They want to use sites like Uniswap, Yearn, Curve, Maker, and Aave to get that job done. MetaMask is simply the connective tissue," it added.
Meanwhile, MetaMask said its newly launched mobile app, called MetaMask Mobile, brought in new users into the broader crypto ecosystem. It noted the top four countries, in order of the volume of mobile users, were the US, India, Nigeria, and the Philippines.
Jason Lee is the business development and community lead at MetaMask, the browser extensions that acts as a gateway to the decentralized web. His role has helped MetaMask garner more than 1.3 million users, which is more than the total number of recorded users for all Dapps on the Ethereum network in any 24 hour period. So he knows a thing or two about growing a startup. In the below interview, Lee explains how he went from an FAA Aircraft Technician to MetaMask's head business honcho, and why a...
Cryptocurrency applications have got a rap for being overly complicated or too difficult for an average user (who may not have the technical skills required). But MetaMask’s growth story shows simplicity could be the key to change that.
Digital assets may be firmly in the mainstream, with institutional involvement and a crypto-friendly president in the White House. But hackers and fraudsters are having a field day so far this year. Crypto users have lost over $1.7 billion to these groups—already 14% more than 2024’s total losses of $1.49 billion, according to blockchain security firm Immunefi. In the same period last year, losses totaled $420 million, the firm said. The report comes amid ongoing concerns about the vulnerabil...
Libre, a regulated real-world asset platform, and the TON Foundation have launched a $500 million tokenized fund on The Open Network, aiming to bring Telegram’s $2.4 billion in corporate debt onto the blockchain for the first time. Dubbed the Telegram Bond Fund, the product allows institutional and accredited investors to gain exposure to Telegram’s outstanding bonds directly through the TON blockchain, according to a statement shared with Decrypt. The fund will also participate in future Telegr...
Solana decentralized exchange Raydium has deployed its native token launchpad, which is designed to rival the popular Pump.fun. This comes almost a month after Pump.fun deployed its own decentralized exchange, cutting ties with Raydium in the process. LaunchLab by Raydium offers a more sophisticated token creation process, compared to Pump.fun’s simplistic approach. The new launchpad allows for deployers to toy with the token supply, how many tokens will be sold on the bonding curve, and how muc...
