The web 3 movement is getting stronger and stronger, and its popularity has been on the rise for a long while now.
Opera releases Crypto Browser ProjectIt’s been just revealed that Opera has launched the beta version of its “Crypto Browser Project.” This is an internet browser with built-in Web 3 integrations. This is what the company announced Tuesday.
The product is targeted at both “the crypto-native and the crypto-curious.”
It’s also important to note the fact that Opera has its own crypto wallet at the core of its user experience, according to a press release.
The main feature of the browser is that users can switch between apps without having to sign-in to their wallets for every new tab. As CoinDesk notes, this will work for any app that has an Opera wallet integration.
The same popular online publication notes that the current Opera wallet is exclusively compatible with Ethereum.
They also said that the company plans to roll out Polygon and Solana compatibility in the near future, with a “big Layer 2 announcement” coming in February. This is what a rep told CoinDesk.
“We actually believe that browsers will be more important in Web 3 than they were in Web 2,” Jorgen Arnesen, vice president of Web 3 at Opera, told CoinDesk in an interview.
He continued and said this:
“We’ve been around the block for 25 years, and around Web 3 since 2018. A multi-chain token strategy will be essential to a good user experience.”
The crypto-centric browser also comes in with a built-in news hub called “Crypto Corner,” along with Twitter and Telegram integrations, the same article pointed by CoinDesk.
The crypto adoption is going great these days with more and more people buying BTC and crypto despite the price corrections.
As you probably know by now, the crypto market has seen multiple corrections lately.
