Other security features include a native ad and tracker blocker, a pop-up blocker, and an intuitive Cookie Dialog Blocker.Īccording to Jorgen Arnesen, EVP Mobile at Opera as quoted by Cointelegraph, Crypto Browser is targeting growing interest in Web3, both from veteran crypto users and newcomers. The company also says the browser comes with cryptocurrency mining protection that blocks “cryptojacking” scripts that could compromise the performance of an iPhone or iPad device. On the browser homepage, users can view the latest top NFT sales and news aggregators called “Crypto Corner,” with live updates on crypto asset prices and gas costs, as well as airdrops and even suggested educational resources.

Users can also restore an Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) compatible Wallet with a native Opera Wallet and integrate their existing assets and balances. The release on mobile is the latest step in the Crypto Browser Project, a Web3-focused initiative to facilitate navigation across decentralized applications (DApps), games, and metaverse platforms.Īccording to Opera, these key features include an Opera Wallet with support for the Ethereum, Polygon, and Celo ecosystems to buy, sell and transfer tokens.

Opera's Crypto Browser has been available for Mac and Windows desktop users, as well as Android phone users since January. JAKARTA - Opera released a beta version of its Web3 browser with a built-in crypto wallet on Friday, April 15 for iOS, iPhone and iPad devices.
