how do we introduce a billion people to blockchains?

**zinkk.eth**: And Phantom wallet integrates them on X: https://x.com/phantom/status/1805588661213220968

Now this is great UX

**tim**: Yes, although this will probably only work when you visit x.com on Phantom or if you have Phantom installed on your Desktop browser.

**zinkk.eth**: Yeah of course, its extension is adding something on the website you're visiting. This is brilliant, I wonder why metamask didn't think of that, since it is installed by millions of users

**tim**: Yeah but for this to work on mobile one has to log in and browse X on the phone, which is pretty strange.
