WAX, the most used layer-1 blockchain in the world, announced that the WAX Cloud Wallet has surpassed the 6 million users milestone this week following the listing of WAXP on the Binance, Gate.io, and AOFEX exchanges expanding accessibility to the token used for purchase of NFTs on WAX Blockchain marketplaces.

This surge of recent growth also resulted in WAX seeing over 550,000 active users on the WAX blockchain on August 23--a new all-time high.
