In a major milestone, Bitget Wallet has announced it surpassed 30 million users globally as of July, marking a remarkable 150% increase from the previous year.
This surge in popularity is underscored by data from CryptoRank, which indicates that Bitget Wallet achieved over 1.6 million downloads in July alone, outpacing MetaMask’s 1.5 million downloads during the same period.
The wallet’s rapid growth can be attributed to its emphasis on an enhanced mobile experience, according to Alvin Kan, COO of Bitget Wallet. Kan noted that many Web3 users favor the convenience of mobile wallets over traditional plugin options on computers. “Our user-friendly mobile design has made Bitget a preferred choice, with many users opting to stick with our wallet rather than reverting to older alternatives,” Kan said.
Bitget Wallet’s expansion has been particularly notable in Europe, North America, and Oceania. User numbers in countries such as Russia, Italy, Sweden, and Australia saw a 40-fold increase, while France, Portugal, the UK, Turkey, and Canada experienced a staggering 1,000% rise.
The wallet also saw a 20-fold user increase in Japan, the Philippines, and Thailand, and user growth in India, Vietnam, and Singapore exceeded 300%.
The wallet’s appeal is partly due to its cross-chain capabilities, which allow for “seamless multi-chain asset management” and “effortless decentralized trading.” Features such as smart money tracking on Solana and Base chains, automatic slippage adjustments, zero gas fees, and an instant trade mode have contributed to its popularity.
Bitget Wallet’s support for The Open Network (TON) in November 2023 further accelerated its user base growth into early 2024. This integration has been bolstered by the rising popularity of Telegram mini-games. Kan revealed that Bitget Wallet has collaborated with over 50 TON projects, offering users a gas-free transaction experience and streamlined on-chain transfers.
It is worth noting that last month, Bitget Wallet became one of the first major providers to fully integrate TON, which quickly became the most transacted network on the platform, surpassing Polygon, Arbitrum, and BNB Chain. The wallet also partnered with crypto investment firm Foresight X to invest in Tomarket, a decentralized finance trading platform on the TON blockchain.
Looking ahead, Kan remains optimistic about continued growth, despite the unpredictable nature of cryptocurrency markets. He attributes this confidence to ongoing retail and institutional interest in spot cryptocurrency ETFs and continued innovations within the blockchain space.
