MetaMask Co-Founder Sees Developer-led Future of His Crypto Wallet

Six years agoDan Finlay and Aaron Davis met while working at Apple and came up with the idea of ​​creating a web extension that supports the first layer Ethereum blockchain for developers to play with.

This project has evolved into MetaMask, the world’s largest non-custodial crypto wallet.

What should have been a short project for Finley and Davis has grown into a global product with about 20 million monthly active users (MAUs), Finlay told TechCrunch.

“So much has changed,” Finley said. “We thought it would be a quick start and end. Aaron thought we’d be working on this for a few weeks; I thought it would be several months. It quickly became clear that this was not the case.
