MyEtherWallet Co-Founder Splits to Launch MyCrypto.com

MyEtherWallet co-founder Taylor Monahan, unexpectedly announced last Friday the launch of her own cryptocurrency wallet platform, MyCrypto.com, following the split from MyEtherWallet. Taylor announced both news items in a long Medium post. The post reads:

“I was terrified—am terrified—at the potential harm this change will have on myself, the team, and/or the Ethereum community but ultimately, the risks created by continuing down the road we were on are greater than the risks of splitting to a new brand, new company, new name, and new domain. While contemplating this decision, I began to see that my inaction would be the only thing that guaranteed my failure.”
