Bitcoin Board
Online Bitcoin wallet website Blockchain.info now hosts over 1 million wallets on its website. This is the biggest milestone the company has reached so far, and they are planning to celebrate it with big prizes.
Less then a year ago, Blockchain.info had 100,000 wallets created, and by october 2013 they reportedly reached the 500,000th created wallets milestone. Now, just a few months later they are already at one million. This rapid increase in wallets pairs with the increase in interest in Bitcoin & Crypto currencies in general.
A Blockchain.info representative told us their response to the newly reached milestone:
“The year 2013 has been an unforgettable one for Blockchain. As the number of wallets has doubled from 500,000 since November, the world’s most popular bitcoin website is proud to announce reaching 1,000,000 wallets for their wallet service.”
Blockchain.info will also be attending the CES 2014 in Las Vegas later this month, together with Bitcoin payment processing company Bitpay. When the 500,000th wallet was created, the company gave a 10 BTC prize to the creator of that wallet. If you have created a wallet on Blockchain in the last few hours, it might be worth checking if you were the lucky winner this time!
