Topic: Myetherwallet and Metamask (Read 313 times)

Its a good thing to have both of it. Metamask is a good wallet you can access it easily but it is more prone to keylogger and dictionary attack through its seed phrase. Myetherwallet is a good wallet with a decent and secured wallet. It is up to you what wallet you are willing to use. Just be careful and treat your ether wallet or bitcoin wallet like it have a million dollars on it.

I always use Mytherwallet for ETH and token, I find it easier to use than Metamask: This is easy to use, secure and updated constantly!

It does not even matter if they are combined because as long as the wallet is very secured in terms of trading in the market then its fine to use and safe to use like no other people can steal your money.

Neither MyEtherWallet nor MetaMask has anything to do with any fees.
good luck!!!! 

Neither MyEtherWallet nor MetaMask has anything to do with any fees.

MetaMask is a browser plugin, MyEtherWallet is a website. they're definitely not tokens! 
both are simply interfaces to communicate with the Ethereum blockchain.
All they do is simplify the process of getting a keypair and making a transaction,
they do nothing other than that, it's important that people know how it works.

They do nothing safer than you couldn't do yourself!
Here is a guide about wallets

Myetherwallet & Meata mask is mainly work for ETH based on this when any company works in joint venture that time the company always get more profit and strong based on this they also good at ERC20  token based on this they will be provide more benefits and security to their customers.

When you import MEW into Metamask, you are adding a layer of protection to your wallet.

actually metamask and myetherwallet how it works the same, only one that distinguishes it with its security. compared to myetherwallet, metamask it is more secure. because when we will go to the new website and phishing is indicated (fraud) usually metamask will prevent us from transacting on the website. so now many people are moving from myetherwallet to metamask. but, frankly according to my personal views both are good to use. it depends on what people want to use.

Metamask is used to protect your tokens in myetherwallet from phishing. Because the wallet address is changed when you use metamask, which is more secure. It also acts as a back up wallet.

My priority is absolutely myetherwallet but I will try metamask cause of I heard a lot of thing in forum. Maybe I can edit my post after trying.

This two wallet is not so different while you use Myetherwallet in Metamask also but Metamask is only limited to your browser, which is more secure. Also, it will be safe to open your Myetherwallet through Metamask to get extra security.

Both of them supports ERC20 coins, some combining it because MetaMask has more security than MEW. The only way to access MEW is thru .dat file or Private key which is easy to be compromised if you get phished however if u use metamask it will provide more security than mew.

This is wrong. Metamask already supports ER20 Tokens. But you can only visualize them, and there is no option to move them. So for now the best way to use Metamask is to import MEW into Metamask.

You can use Metamask own ETH wallet to send ether.

Myetherwallet and Metamask is both an erc20 wallet. Myetherwallet not only supports ethereum but it also supports storing erc20 altcoin in its wallet. While metamask supports only pure ethereum. They will update soon to support erc20 tokens. But the security of metamask is very good. You can combine Myethereum into metamask to ensure that you are not being targeted by a phishing attack.

because if only use metamask how to send token or ethereum ??
we still need myetherwallet to make transactions, so if you want to open the wallet we do not need to use private key, just connect to metamask only.
I think this way is safer than entering using private key.

Sorry, this is simply not possible. Metamask DOES NOT HAVE an UI to move Tokens. Once you import Tokens into the Metamaks own ETH wallet, they are stuck in there forever unti they will implement an UI to move them our of your wallet. Sometimes I am amazed by the amount of wrong information I read here.

What you want to do is using Metamask as a means to access MEW. For moving your Tokens, you can use Metamask to access MEW from the website (so you don't give away your private keys) and once you are logged in, you can move your Tokens. Better yet, use an hardware wallet such as Trezor to access MEW.

Accessing MEW from the website is dangerous. It's much safer to access MEW imported into Metamask. Better yet, use an hardware wallet to access MEW. But, the reason not use use Metamask own ETH walltet for Tokens is that it still does not have an UI to move Tokens.

Because you don't want to give your private key to MEW when connecting to it. MEW is arguably the best way to transact in ETH and ERC-20 tokens, but in case it gets hacked /

phished / keylogged whatever, you are adding another layer of security via Metamask, with which it already is easier to connect to MEW, so it's a Win Win

Metamask is one thing that we need to connect myetherwallet to any exchange site to sell and buy coins, and the same time metamask is the other type of security of Myethewallet.

Metamask is very easy to use, just download it in your chrome extension and follow the simple instruction. Good luck.

Both of them are just two different wallets .. even the tech built on is different.. one is a web wallet and the other one is just a browser integration.
You could choose one of them to use and my recommendation is MEW because its safer and most useful.

their is no way to combine your account  metamask to myetherwallet because they are different system but they are same erc-20 all you have to do is to send your token from metamask to myetherwallet or myetherwallet to metamask you or you should keep your token from both of that wallet but you need some gas fee if you want to transfer from one to another

myetherwallet is an ERC20 while Metamask supports the use of ERC20. Metamask is an offline wallet that is capable of holding the private key. metamask main function is to serve as security to myetherwallet.

First of all,Metamask is not a wallet but it is just a bridge connecting to MEW,which give you all the functions that MEW do,it also add a layer of protection,protecting your from phishing sites and give you easy and fast access to MEW without the need to enter you private key every time you want to use MEW ( they store it for you ) .

One of the advantages of using Metamask with Myetherwallet is that it will protect you from Phishing sites.
Sometime ago there was a phishing attack launched against EtherDelta. The culprits had hacked the DNS server and redirected traffic bound for EtherDelta to a fake site that looked exactly like EtherDelta. All those using MEW and a password lost all their tokens and all those using MetaMask got a warning that the site was fake and did not lose any tokens.

Myetherwallet doesn't hold your privatekey, metamask hold your privatekey, combine both will make better security even though not perfect

Use metamask to login in MEW
MetaMask can be used as a substitute for private key
procedure:

• download MetaMask
• enter the private key
• change to main wallet
• go to MyEtherWallet.com
• click send Ether & token
• login using MetaMask

MEW with Metamask is just the difference when you want to login or send token on MEW website, if using MEW you have to enter Private Key, but if using Metamask, you just stay connected via metamask at MEW website Thank you

Basically its for your own safety since a lot of scam are happening around cryptoworld.
Metamask is a good one to protect are wallet, and you must really be careful since there are some fake site.
You can actually know how to do it properly in this amazing video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=grsBwSDSeuQ

The purpose of merging myetherwallet and metamask is to increase the security of your wallet. How, you install plug in metamask in your browser, then create your metamasket wallet. Once you have a metamask account, you import your myetherwallet wallet into metamask.

I am using both for greater protection. I used MEW to generate my eth address and installed MetaMask plugin in Chrome. I imported my MEW address to MetaMask to filter transactions. Its an added task but I feel more secure using the setup.

You need them to participate in our ICO. It's best to combine them as explained in the FAQ.

From our FAQ, which you can find on the ICO page.


How can I buy your Tokens?

​Participating in our Token sale is very easy. Step 1. Download and install the wonderful MetaMask browser Add-on. Step 2. Import MyEtherWallet into MetaMask. This is important. Please do not use the Metamask own ETH wallet, use your MyEtherWallet account imported into Metamask to buy Tokens so you can later move them out of your wallet using MyEtherWallet. Unfortunately, Metamask still does not provide an UI to directly move Tokens. Step 3. Go to our invest page, select the number of INNBC Tokens you want to purchase, click on "contribute", sign the transaction, and congratulations you are now a INNBC Token holder! You will immediately see your Token balance displayed on the invest page each time you visit it, as thanks to the POA DApp the page connects to the Etherum blockchain through your Metamask extension showing Token balance; isn't this awesome? To add the INNBC Token to Metamask, choose from the menu "Token", "add Tokens", and copy the Token address (0x85558055812f19eB084B8bA327470e84Ad795b11). You can also contribute by QR code. However, please be sure to use a wallet that supports ERC20 Tokens, as Tokens will be deposited to the address you use to contribute. And you still need Metamask to visualize the parameters of the invest page.


Who distributes Tokens, and how quickly will I receive them after the end of the initial offer (Token Launch)?

​INNBC Tokens are automatically distributed to investors by the smart contract upon purchase. However, they will be transferable out of your wallet only upon crowdsale completion.

create metamask and download the pluggin in your browser. be careful there are phishing sites of metamask. Then create wallet with mew. Import your json file to metamask. it is good to combined this two because it might save your tokens

As much as I know they are combined to make your work more efficient. This is to make this done. You just need to create a metamask and a janonfile. Then follow the further steps. Prevention must be taken in case of using private keys. It is better not to use private key.

You can use My Metamask to detect fishing site, scam site trying fake myetherwallet

This two wallet is not so different while you use Myetherwallet in Metamask also but Metamask is only limited to your browser, which is more secure. Also, it will be safe to open your Myetherwallet through Metamask to get extra security.

I dont understand why they must be combined. I also want to know how to combine them
Metamask is secure wallet. How to combine? First you create metamask . download pluggin in your browser chrome or brave. be careful there are fake metamask. Then create wallet with mew. Create with JSON file. so you have file and pasword. Never log in with your private key. Then login to metamask, save pharaprase when you create metamask. it is to import to other hardware. then import wallet using JSON file of your mew. enter the pasword then connect metamask in your page of mew. in a second you will be connected. You have two wallet then, first your metamask wallet and second imported wallet from mew. This is recomended to secure your wallet.

There is no option to send ERC-20 tokens from your Metamask to another ethereum address at the moment. Therefore, we have to use myetherwallet and log in using metamask in order to send ERC-20 tokens.

I think both are very good erc-20 tokens
They provide high value and good security for your tokens and Etherum
They offer low transaction fees, they offer low transfer fees
High and very fast transaction delivery


You will have lots of positivity if you keep your tokens and Etherum in Myetherwallet or metamask

I dont understand why they must be combined. I also want to know how to combine them
