Ethereum software company ConsenSys acquired the Ethereum MyCrypto interface with the goal of integrating MyCrypto into the MetaMask wallet and improving the security of all products.

MetaMask is an extension that allows you to access distributed applications that support Ethereum or "Dapps" in your web browser.

MetaMask co-founder Dan Finlay said the combination of the MetaMask mobile app and browser extension with the web product and MyCrypto desktop application "will connect people to the world of Web3 in more ways."

The company announced that it has surpassed 10 million monthly active users (MAUs), placing it among the most active wallets used in the digital currency ecosystem. ConsenSys noted that the MyCrypto team's experience in building smart contract integrations will make those in MetaMask richer.

In November, ConsenSys, the blockchain startup behind the Metamask portfolio, raised $ 200 million in a new funding round, boosting its valuation to $ 3.2 billion.
