Bitget Wallet Lite, the self-custodial cryptocurrency wallet offered by Bitget exchange, has taken Telegram by storm, attracting a whopping six million users in just three days of its launch.
The news of Bitget Wallet Lite’s integration into Telegram and its seamless functionality for buying, storing, and sending cryptocurrencies has spread like wildfire, resulting in millions of users flocking to the platform.
From its soft launch on Oct. 28 to the official unveiling on Oct. 31, Bitget Wallet Lite has seen an unprecedented growth in its user base, surpassing the six million mark on the launch day itself. This surge in users now accounts for half of Bitget Wallet’s total monthly user base of 12 million.
Alvin Kan, the Chief Operating Officer of Bitget Wallet, attributes this rapid growth to strategic campaigns and engaging features that have resonated well with users. Early user rewards and partnerships with popular Mini Apps such as Tomarket have significantly contributed to the wallet’s success.
Despite the competition from other crypto wallets on Telegram, Bitget Wallet Lite’s rise in popularity has been meteoric. While users should exercise caution while using any Mini Apps on Telegram due to potential risks like phishing attacks, Bitget Wallet recommends verifying all channels through official sources to ensure security.
In a bid to enhance transparency and security, Bitget Wallet Lite is working towards obtaining Telegram’s official verification blue tag to provide users with added peace of mind.
As the crypto ecosystem continues to evolve rapidly, Bitget Wallet Lite’s exponential growth serves as a testament to the increasing interest in cryptocurrencies and the need for secure and user-friendly platforms.
