Blockchain Messaging Apps Market Growth & Trends

The rapid rise in access to the internet and frequent development in internet speed with the deployment of the 5G and 6G technologies are further expected to fuel the market’s growth.

With this addition of bot, Telegram enabled its users to send cryptocurrency to other users through chat.

The global COVID-19 outbreak has been favorable to market growth. The growing use of social media and the internet during the COVID-19 pandemic created immense opportunities for the market to grow in future years. Moreover, the increasing awareness among users about the exploitation of privacy has resulted in a growing demand for alternative messaging platforms, such as blockchain chatting apps.
