According to Jinshi Data on February 8, DeepSeek had over 20 million daily active users in 20 days after its launch, which is 40% of ChatGPT. A few days after the release of DeepSeek-R1, it experienced an explosion in the last week of January. DeepSeek had accumulated 125 million users in January (including websites and applications without deduplication). More than 80% of the users came from the last week, which means that DeepSeek achieved a growth of 100 million users in 7 days. (Jinshi Data APP)

I'm not sure how to get to the data myself, so I'm not sure how accurate these reports are, as far as I can tell it hasn't broken into mainstream news yet.
For anyone curious, it took two months for chatgpt to hit 100 million users.
