imo the best current proxy for consumer crypto users is mobile wallet users. 

while "consumer crypto" is the current buzzword, total consumer crypto users are lower than they were +2 yrs ago (24.5M then vs 23M now).

if we now have the primitives to onboard new users, why do you think we are ~failing to onboard them?

this isn't counting all the consumer apps that have embedded wallets like privy. I think in the last 2 years there's been a marked shift from

2 years ago: user should go sign up to metamask, then come back to use my app

now: just sign up to my app, it has a wallet inside

A great example is warpcast

@henri and @itai, can you guys share how your own metrics may compare / contrast / expand / enhance the story this specific wallet data is depicting?

lots of us are huge fans of privy and dynamic and believe in the technology; can be broad strokes instead of specific metrics but your voices / insights here are MVPs.

I think this is a big part of the answer. I know there's a ton of people who disagree, but I think the next wave of consumer crypto is going to be driven by embedded wallets.

yep, agree, this is my intuition as well.
