How do the creators of MetaMask make money?

The MetaMask service brings in hundreds of millions in revenue per year to its parent company ConsenSys. The profitability is almost 100%, and more than 30 million people use it.

The company makes money from the fees it charges for exchange transactions in the Swaps crypto exchange function. For example, in October 2020, the company launched this function and began charging a 0.875% commission for it. From January to November 2021, MetaMask managed to earn about $200 million from these fees.
