It is said that the wallet has entered the public testing phase and is now available for both iOS and Android after going through a period of thirty days during which it was tested in secret.
Mike Dougherty, the Chief Executive Officer of Easy, has stated that the company’s mission is to integrate compelling social elements with user-curated profiles so that anyone can search, browse, and discover the world of Web3 on their own.
The presentation that Dougherty gave, a significant number of the products and services that are currently being provided by Web3 companies are far too complicated for the typical person to be able to make use of them. The mission of the company is to make it easier for customers to interact with Web3 and use digital wallets by streamlining these processes.
The platform has a structure that is comparable to that of social media applications like Instagram, in which users may swipe to see either their own NFTs or those of others they watch, similar to how Instagram Stories are shown.

Despite the fact that the crypto winter has persisted for such a significant amount of time, venture capitalists continue to provide significant investment for Web3 companies.
