    For the DApps out there... With Brave Wallet's release today on Desktop (and soon on mobile), you suddenly have 42M new users with web 3 access on by default. That's huge. Try it out now at brave.com/wallet/ and look for the wallet icon on the top right of your browser.

    Amazing to see how far @brave has come in nearly 3 years. We've built this amazing team, launched products and services across platforms, created a top tier utility token @AttentionToken, and affected the browser and web monetization industries... and we're just getting started!
