Crypto News Flash #208: Opera Launched World's First Android-Based Web Browser With Integrated Crypto Wallet

in #news6 years ago

Cryptocurrencies investing and trading has become common these days. On an average, 1 out of 5 people invest in cryptocurrencies either for short term or long term. But the main problem comes when it comes to storing that cryptocurrency. We are aware of the crypto exchanges hack these days and certainly they're not the most suitable option for storing your crypto. 

The best way to store your crypto is hardware wallet. But, if by some reason, you don't have a hardware wallet, then now you can store your crypto with your web browser. 

Yes, you read it right. You can store your crypto in your browser from now on while browsing web. Opera, a leading web browser provider, has launched its android based web browser with integrated crypto wallet. 

Opera Mini Web Browser will now be loaded with cryptocurrency wallet supporting Ethereum based tokens. 

Eventually the browser will support most of the currencies as Opera is looking forward to expand its market share. Opera's product manager said recently in a press-conference that:

“Our hope is that this will accelerate the transition of cryptocurrencies from speculation and investment to being used for actual payments and transactions in our users’ daily lives.” 

Opera has a customer base of 250 Million in 2017 and with a lot of crypto enthusiast out there, this number might increase soon enough. 

Thanks for reading ..!!

opera browser is my all time favorite browser. because its very good for offical uses and its work very well on every site. this browser browser browse all sites very fast and good....

I use the new Opera browser and I like it also for PC, but I would be leery of using a browser for safeguarding anything of value. And since the wallet browser is only for android, it makes it even more scary, since phones can be so easily hacked. I have very few apps on my phone because it's mainly the fault of apps, that compromise the phone's security.
