MetaMask Monthly | October News 💌

 

This month we met some of you in Lisbon, we gave our Extension buttons a makeover and made it easier to detect tokens you may be missing in your wallet. On the topic of missing things, watch our new video about how to find missing accounts. Finally, keep an eye out for Ledger integration improvements, coming soon.   Oh and no, we didn't change our name to FACE.    BE AWARE: we identified a new email scam (read below for more information). Scamming activity continues to evolve. Keep this in mind when you receive emails, messages, or any other type of communication asking you to click links or share sensitive information.

Ledger Users: We Are Making Your Life Easier Hardware Wallets Our improved Ledger support will roll out very soon! We are migrating away from the previous approach of bridging to the Ledger Live app, and instead are creating a new direct integration between Ledger and MetaMask. We hope this removes the frustration we heard from you since the Chrome changes earlier this year. Additionally, Ledger users can be confident that the teams will be collaborating closely to ensure a great user experience moving forward. Keep an eye out on our Twitter account for more information, which is coming soon.

NEW: Token Detection Feature Product With the roll out of our new Extension (10.3.0) and App (3.4.1) release, you will find a new feature: token detection! This feature improves auto-detection of owned tokens, without having to import them manually. Note: currently, this is an experimental opt-in feature and only available on Ethereum Mainnet. Please stay safe and operate with caution, do your due diligence and don’t interact with unfamiliar tokens.

Extension Button Change Extension Extension’s button style has been given a makeover! It was inconsistent and not in parity with mobile’s button design. Below the big reveal about how we changed our Extension button in v10.3.0. So not to stress if you notice the difference, it’s still us. More information in this Tweet.

New Scam Alert: Phishing Emails Scams Some of our users have received emails coming from “noreply@metamask.io” asking them to verify their MetaMask wallet. This is a scam!

We don’t ask for your email address when you create a MetaMask wallet, so we would never be able to ask you to verify it.

Lisbon 2021 Events We had so much fun joining the crowd in Lisbon where we hosted events with our awesome MetaMask panel for Q&A, we handed out swag and met a lot of new people. Missed us? Don’t worry, our next stop is NFT.NYC. We look forward to seeing you in The Big Apple.

Hardened JS with Agoric Security We've been working with @Agoric on hardening Hardened JS, a tool for making software (like MetaMask) safer than ever. Learn more about it here.

Updates to Buy ETH with MetaMask Onramps For our U.S. users: Wyre is rolling out ACH ( bank transfers) this week! Extension users will be able to select this when buying ETH through MetaMask. Currently, the default is set to “Credit/Debit”, but when you click “edit” you can now select “ACH Transfer”. ACH allows for a higher purchase limit and lower fees.  Transak added support for 15 new currencies. See here for the full list.

New Extension and App Releases #What’s New The Fox doesn’t sleep. Want to know what we’ve been working on? Check out some of our updates from the new releases we launched this month:   Extension v10.3.0: We've changed the style of our buttons to be friendlier! Don't be alarmed when you see rounded edges on our buttons. Mobile App V3.4.0 & V3.4.1: We soft-launched our improved token detection as an opt-in experimental feature on Ethereum Mainnet, and needs to be toggled ON in “Settings”. Try it out and give feedback to help us balance security & usability. Soon to come on some custom networks. We enhanced transaction stability on the app, and will continue to iterate in future updates. Bug fixes. V3.3.0 release note: we said we support the “switch_Ethereum” method. This is incorrect - we support the “wallet_switchEthereumChain” method. V3.5.0: Technical improvements to help reduce the occurrence of ‘Storage Limit’ error. Tokens now support IPFS linked images. Bug fixes
