Keplr Arrives on Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) Compatible Blockchains
While Keplr is the flagship wallet of the Cosmos (ATOM) ecosystemit is about to diversify its activities through Ethereum (ETH). This is in any case what Josh Lee, the co-founder of the wallet, affirmed to our colleagues at The Block.
💡 How to buy ATOM from Cosmos?
For now, no official date has been announced, and the information was simply taken up by Keplr on its social networks by sharing the article in question. However, this upcoming novelty comes from an idea to offer a unique tool to Cosmos and blockchain users compatible with the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) :
A significant percentage of Kepler users now use both Kepler and an EVM wallet, and we're trying to serve them as a kind of growing modular community.
This is not the first time that a wallet, originally intended for a single environment, has diversified its activities in order to offer different blockchains. The most telling example is that of Phantom, initially specialized only in Solana (SOL), and which has since diversified to Ethereum (ETH), Polygon (MATIC), but also Bitcoin (BTC)Last May, we also returned to rumors surrounding a possible opening of MetaMask to Bitcoin.
