Opera browser adds Decrypt news for Web3 education
Opera browser partnered with crypto news site Decrypt to serve its news to users and advance Web3 education.
- Opera browser will feature Decrypt news on its app and services
- Two companies stressed their commitment to web3 education
- The privacy-focused browser has launched several crypto initiatives in the past
Opera is once again signaling its commitment to crypto. On Tuesday, Oct. 7, the browser firm partnered with the crypto news site Decrypt to feature its stories across Opera’s platforms. Stories will appear on Opera News, Opera Mini, and Opera for Android.
“This collaboration will enable Decrypt to reach the broadest audience possible, advancing our educational mission to make Web3 accessible for all and bringing the next billion users to blockchain and crypto,” Decrypt co-founder and COO Ilan Hazan said.
Both companies have stressed their commitment to blockchain education. They hope that the partnership could bring blockchain and Web3 news to millions of potential new users, as blockchain adoption scales up.
“This partnership is more than a tactical move,” said a spokesperson for Opera. “It reflects Opera’s broader commitment to Web3.”
While a relatively minor browser compared to Chrome, Safari, or Edge, Opera still has hundreds of millions of monthly active users. Its user base is particularly large in emerging markets, including Africa, Southeast Asia, India, and Latin America. Globally, it captures 1.74% of total browser traffic.
Opera browser expands in crypto
The privacy-focused Opera browser has announced several crypto initiatives in the past. In 2018, the firm launched its own crypto wallet. In 2023, it phased that out in favor of the stablecoin-focused MiniPay wallet on the Celo (CELO) blockchain with its own app.
Opera also unveiled a range of web3-friendly features . These include easier payments with MiniPay, transaction screening with Web3 Guard, crypto domain names, NFT features, and more.
