Tron just keep growing (in marketcap and popularity.) The world famous web browser Opera announced that very soon it will introduce native support for the Tron blockchain. The browser will have a TRX wallet able to store not only this cryptocurrency but also all TRC tokens running on the Tron mainnet.

Opera is known for its efforts to help the ecosystem grow. Last year the browser became the first one to have a native ETH wallet, compatible with ERC20 and ERC721 tokens. This gave Opera the distinction of being the first browser with Web3 capabilities.

Opera + Tron : A Partnership Focused on Dapps

Thanks to this decision, Opera gives over 300 million users around the world the possibility to use TRX without having to configure a separate wallet. The fact that it has native compatibility makes it extremely easy for inexperienced users to get involved in the world of cryptocurrencies.

The Opera team is not just looking to exploit the financial potential of a token, it seems that they hope to boost the use and development of DApps. Right now, Ethereum is the blockchain with the most DApps in the ecosystem but Tron holds the title of having the fastest growth of all Dapp-oriented networks.

“TRON is a popular, quickly developing blockchain with a swiftly growing DApp ecosystem. We are happy to open our browser to it,” said Krystian Kolondra, EVP at Opera, Head of Browsers. “By opening products to multiple blockchains, we are accelerating the mainstream adoption of Web 3.”

Justin Sun, CEO of Tron, shared his enthusiasm. For the well-known crypto influencer, this partnership with Opera can be very positive for the growth of not only TRX but the entire Tron ecosystem.

“We are excited that Opera, a mainstream browser with hundreds of millions of users, will now seamlessly support TRX and other TRON tokens … Soon, Opera users will be able to use dApps on the TRON blockchain.”

Browsers and Blockchains Can Grow Together

According to official information, Opera is working hard to back multiple blockchains. The idea is to expand these features within 12 months. That Tron was the second blockchain supported after Ethereum shows not only Opera’s confidence in this project but also Justin Sun’s success in promoting his platform among the entire developer community.

TRON has over 2.7 million active accounts with more than 3 million transactions per day.

Currently, there is also a boom in the development of internet browsers focused on the use of blockchain technologies. The three most famous; Opera, Brave, and Dissenter are growing in popularity every day, every one thanks to its own characteristics.
