Before this important release, Phantom was already making waves. Earlier, Phantom was given access to OpenSea after initial rumours were confirmed and a string of useful partnerships highlighting Phantom’s big plans. In addition, phantom’s Series B funding, led by Paradigm, raised around $109 million and also served to underline the product’s status- bringing its valuation to $1.2 billion.
The team confirmed to Web3Wire that Since its launch, Phantom has exceeded 2 million users and continues to be the most user-friendly Solana wallet for staking SOL, swapping tokens, and making Non-Fungible tokens (NFT), DeFI, and app transactions. In the coming year, the team will be adopting a multi-chain strategy and is planning on an expansion before the end of the year. The future, by all accounts, appears to be multi-chain.
