A record 3.5 million crypto wallet app downloads were recorded in July 2020, representing an increase of 81% when compared to the same period last year. In addition, the number of active users went up by 110% between January 1 and August 19, 2020.
According to a report authored by Madeline Lenahan of Apptoppia, the increase in the number of crypto apps downloads is observed right after countries began imposing lockdown measures in the wake of Covid-19.
In the previous year, the number of downloads averaged just under two million, with the month of May and June being the only time when this mark is passed.
