Opera Adds Crypto Wallet To Its Desktop Browser, Launches Anti-Chrome Campaign in Europe

'Opera has updated its eponymous web browser for the desktop with a
crypto-makeover and a number of additional features. From a report:

The Norway-headquartered browser maker has also launched a marketing
campaign to cash in on the EU regulatory order that requires Google to
give Android users in Europe more options to choose their preferred
browser. Dubbed 'Reborn 3,' the latest version of Opera for Windows,
macOS, and Linux includes a native cryptocurrency wallet, which
follows Opera's Android app getting this feature in December. The
wallet keys and transactions are synced between the desktop and mobile
browsers with the latter also serving as a way for the user to
authenticate their identity, the company said. [...] Additionally,
Opera is speeding up the free VPN feature, after adding this feature
to its Android app last month.'
