Summer 2018 is shaping up nicely for Bitcoin.com. Over the last few months, we’ve been through the Bitcoin Cash upgrade from 8 MB to a huge 32 MB, grown in people power and stress tested the system.
But, our crazy-skilled developer team over in Tokyo, Japan are celebrating for another reason this July. They just totaled a massive 2.5 million Bitcoin.com wallets created in just under a year. Albeit, a small percentage of that number may be the wallets the team created to buy Friday night beers with BCH -in the multiple establishments that accept bitcoin cash in Tokyo. But, that in itself is a pretty tremendous feat too — Don’t you think?
This incredibly huge achievement comes prior to the one year anniversary of the Bitcoin network fork on August 1st, and under one year since the launch of the wallet on August 25, 2017. As a team, we like to celebrate every win, and 2.5 million feels right.
Thanks to the support from our solid global team, pioneers in the industry and the entire Bitcoin Cash community, our wallet is rapidly becoming a household name. If you’ve used it, then you know why. The Bitcoin.com wallet is super easy to use and quicker to set up than it is even to download. A user can pay for goods and services with the wallet instantly.

Obviously, we’re a little biased, as a team, our sweat and blood is poured into each product. But the Bitcoin.com wallet really is so much more than just a basic cryptocurrency wallet. It connects people, businesses, and entire communities.
Alfonso Rocha, wallet product manager at Bitcoin.com excitedly gave us his response to the big news:
