Wallet Feature Adoption – Probability and Expectation
Setup
You are analyzing adoption of a new wallet feature.
There are N users. Each user independently adopts the feature with probability p.
Questions
What is the expected number of users who adopt the feature?
What is the probability that at least one user adopts it?
What core statistical assumption underlies these calculations?
Given that at least one of two specific users adopted the feature, what is the probability both of them did?
