Phantom, a digital asset wallet, has reached the second position in the Utilities category of the US Apple App Store as of November 20, surpassing well-known apps like Google Chrome and Amazon Fire TV. Despite Google holding the top spot, Phantom's popularity indicates a growing acceptance of Web3 applications among users. The wallet is particularly favored within the Solana ecosystem and supports various networks and non-fungible tokens (NFTs). Phantom's rise coincides with significant fee generation among Solana decentralized applications (DApps), with protocols such as Jito and Raydium generating millions in fees recently. However, this success comes on the heels of a previous update issue that locked some users out of their wallets. Phantom, being a non-custodial wallet, cannot recover lost seed phrases, advising users instead to contact support for assistance. This recent performance underscores both Phantom's growing user base and the burgeoning activity in the Solana network.
