Blockchain reports 50,000 new wallets a day

It lays claim to over 27 million registered wallets in 140 countries and $200 billion in transactions since it was founded in 2011

Amid a bearish cryptocurrency market that has seen all crypto assets lose value, Blockchain is reporting 50,000 new wallets being registered per day.

CEO Peter Smith tweeted on 15th August that it was his firm and not Coinbase as Bloomberg had reported that was adding 50,000 users to its platform per day. “CORRECTION: It’s actually *Blockchain* (and not Coinbase) signing up over 50,000 per day in the midst of this crypto downturn. It’s delightful to see new entrants actually interested in *using* crypto,” Smith declared.
