Bitget Wallet, a self-custodial cryptocurrency wallet operated by Bitget Exchange, gained millions of users, a few days after its launch and is quickly gaining popularity on Telegram.
Bitget Wallet Lite is a multichain wallet integrated into Telegram that allows users to buy, store, and send digital assets within the service.
Since its soft launch on October 28, six million people have signed up for the Bitget Wallet Lite Mini App on Telegram, within three days after the official launch.
According to Telegram data, Bitget Wallet Lite’s user base surpassed six million monthly users on the official day of debut, after adding three million users in the first two days. The figure represents half of 12 million monthly users using Bitget Wallet.
Although Wallet in Telegram is the default cryptocurrency wallet on Telegram chat, other Mini Apps offer crypto wallet features within the app.
Hot Wallet has 6 million monthly users; Tonkeeper has 760,000 members; OKX Wallet hosts 700,000 subscribers; and numerous others are some of the largest cryptocurrency wallets on Telegram.
Users should exercise caution when engaging with Mini Apps on Telegram because phishing attacks and other threats are frequent,, despite the increased activity of crypto wallets on the messaging app.
