Coinbase adds One Million new Bitcoin users in One Month

Bitcoin exchange portfolios and platforms are witnessing huge growth in their user databases. In June, Coinbase added 1 million new users, which represents a massive increase in a relatively short period of time. Coinbase is one of the most popular cryptocurrency wallet and exchange platform.

Founded in June of 2012, Coinbase is the easiest place to buy and sell digital currency like Bitcoin and Ethereum.

Alistair Milne, an analyst at Atlanta Digital Currency Fund and a major investor in Bitcoin, recently unveiled on Twitter a growth chart of the Coinbase user database dating from November 2016. From May to June, Coinbase added about 1 million new Users, and more than 80 million in the last 18 months.

Milne’s chart above shows the increase in the number of Coinbase users and not wallets.  Coinbase also supports 46,000 Bitcoin merchants and 10,000 developer apps.

The differentiation between the number of users and wallets operated by Coinbase is important to consider because many users and analysts have previously referred to the active user base of Coinbase to compare the number of wallets operated between Coinbase and Blockchain, the two largest Bitcoin wallet platforms in the market.

At the moment, Coinbase is the largest Bitcoin wallet platform in the market and operates around 12.5 mln more wallets than Blockchain.
