  1. For me, the leader in cryptocurrency wallets is TrustWallet.
    The earlier they designate themselves as SMS leader by wallet, the more likely they are to amass billions of dollars of large holders once the full-fledged trend of this story begins.

    Not to mention the fundamental influx of audience.

    We need to be clear that there will now be a battle for the word PURCHASE.

    When you talk about exchanges, it is actually very rarely “exchanges” that come to mind.

    More often Binance comes to mind, simply because it is a direct synonym for all CEX.

    For CZ and management, in my opinion, it is categorically important to make WEB3 / DEX synonymous with Trust Wallet.
