MetaMask data birthday present to the world
The official statement, a 6-digit growth and strategic update to the market, is now here. MetaMask has a six-figure number of monthly active users (MAUs). In March 2022, MetaMask, a ConsenSys product, had 30 million MAUs.
MetaMask believes this success is due to several reasons. In their own words, they said, “The growth of the last two years can be attributed to the frenzy of interest in Decentralized Finance (DeFi) apps, NFT marketplaces, play-to-earn games, Decentralized Autonomous Organizations (DAOs), and metaverse worlds.”
Created in July 2016 by developers Dan Finlay and Aaron Davies, MetaMask has seen great growth. It is also one of the world’s biggest self-custodial wallets and is synonymous with cryptocurrency and NFT culture. Basically, it is a leading mobile app and browser extension wallet.
