Opera web browser has joined hands with Ledger Capital to explore Blockchain technology. This Norway-based browsing company wants to offer a secure browsing environment for users. Through Blockchain, it will create a secure platform immune to cyber attacks against personal information and bank details.

The idea behind merging with Ledger Capital is to research on the various facilities provided by Blockchain Technology. Also, both the companies are looking forward so as to explore the various applications of Blockchain Technology inside Opera.

With this initiative, Opera is trying to create a transparent transaction system and to provide a more secure environment for its users. This, in turn, will help Opera to increase user trust and value of its brand.

Earlier, Opera had become the first web browser to provide an inbuilt cryptocurrency wallet in its browser. There, it enabled users to pay digital cash directly through their phone without much hassle.

Also, this month Opera has launched a “Labs” special edition in its desktop web browser. This feature supports an in-built cryptocurrency wallet. It will facilitate users to authenticate the decentralised transactions made from their mobile phones.

With an increased frequency of malicious attacks against personal identity and data, Opera has decided to offer a secured browsing environment to its users through Blockchain.

Now, Opera takes the second position in terms of popularity amongst web browsers after Google Chrome. However with the help of Blockchain, it will aim for the top position amongst its competitors.
