ConsenSys announced Tuesday that it had acquired MyCrypto, the wallet interface provider, adding it to the software company’s product suite. Its intent is to merge MyCrypto with the ConsenSys-owned MetaMask wallet, to “improve the security of all the products and create a cohesive user experience across desktop, mobile, extension and browser wallets.”

MetaMask currently has 21 million monthly active users, according to its website, and is one of the fastest-growing non-custodial Ethereum wallets and browser extensions. MetaMask co-founder Dan Finlay said that he expects that the combination between MetaMask’s mobile apps and browser extensions and MyCrypto’s web product and desktop application will “connect people to the world of Web3 in even more ways.”
