Meta's new AI app Muse has achieved rapid download growth but faces challenges in user retention and privacy scrutiny. JUST (JST) is trading at ₹13.37 ($0.1407). This is an original Token Times brief based on reporting by Cryptopolitan, with live market data added, as of Wed, 21 Oct 2026 03:15:02 UTC.
The rapid adoption of Meta's AI app highlights the company's continued influence but also raises concerns about data privacy and the sustainability of growth driven by heavy marketing investment.
- Meta's Muse app reached 10.2M US downloads in 40 days.
- App is among 12 to achieve this milestone in the US.
- TVL in Meta's ecosystem is $129.92M, down 16.1% in 7 days.
- Privacy concerns may impact long-term user retention.
Meta's AI-driven app, Muse, has achieved a significant milestone by reaching 10.2 million downloads in the US within just 40 days of its launch. This places it among the top 12 apps to reach this download threshold in the US market.
Despite the impressive download figures, the sustainability of Muse's growth is uncertain. Cryptopolitan suggests that the app's success may be partly attributed to Meta's substantial investment in marketing rather than organic user adoption.
Privacy concerns are also emerging as a potential barrier to long-term user retention. As users become more aware of data privacy issues, the app's ability to address these concerns will be crucial for its continued success.
In the broader market context, Meta's Total Value Locked (TVL) stands at $129.92 million, representing a 16.1% decline over the past seven days, according to DeFiLlama. This suggests potential challenges in maintaining user trust and engagement within Meta's ecosystem.
The overall crypto market cap is currently $2.85 trillion, with

The chart plots JST's price: grey is the move before this brief published, the vertical dashed line marks the moment it published, the horizontal dashed line is the price then, and the coloured area is the move since — from Token Times's market data (daily resolution). It shows what happened after the news, not that the news caused it; many factors move prices. Not financial advice.
At today's peer-to-peer rate, 1 JST ≈ ₹14.62 (about $0.1407), down 0.1% over 24 hours. The rupee itself trades about 9.4% above the official rate on the P2P market, so a Indian buyer's effective cost differs from the headline dollar price.
