Yes you need to use metamask, If you have using it for a long time then that's good but remember it's a hot wallet so you must better buy trezor or nano ledger to keep your coins safe and secured.

Yes, you are right, the MetaMask is used only for coins based on the Ethereum.
Perhaps in the future it will be possible to generate or attach already existing other wallets.
I have a lot of wallets. Each of them has a different purpose. Not all wallets I have online and not all are tied to MetaMask. However, I use MetaMask always when login on decentralized exchanges. This fox warns about phishing sites. Also, passwords are already stored inside and there is no need to enter the password every time from the wallet.

As people experience that I read from this forum, using metamask is more safer than mew therefore using it will be better. If we can have a more secure wallet, why we don't use it.

You should use MetaMask because it provides very good protection against theft of money. Each additional protection of the wallet is most desirable to protect against theft.

I don't have too much experience with Ethereum or tokens but here's my view. I just moved from MEW to Metamask and it's so much nicer to use. I was using exodus for eth but it doesn't support enough ECR-20 tokens so I went in search of something that did. I don't want to pay the daft ledger nano price so Metamask is my choice atm and I like it.

Metamask adds extra protection than merely using MEW, or having passphrase as a way of opening you MEW. Some incidents happened that MEW was compromised, in the sense that websites were made to re direct you to fake and phishing websites. So i'd say for ERC-20 tokens, metamask is a better choice and you can handle multiple eth wallets too.

Of course yes, you should use metamask. Every way to secure is important, because bad people trying everything to steal your coins, so every security option will only be a plus

I'm a newbie with some technical skills, but not a lot.
Should I be using MetaMask for added security?
What does MetaMask do for me, exactly?

Also, MetaMask seems to only work for Ethereum-based coins.  Is there an extension like MetaMask available for the other coins?
Hi guy, As I hear some people say that that MetaMask is probably a big hit wallet which is used online by connecting  computer to internet right  now. But I’ve never ever used this wallet, I think that it is less secure than MEW. Now I am still using MEW, because I think that MEW is one of the most ways that keep our coins in secure way. Maybe everyone has their own feeling  about both of these. I think that you’d better to try using it to know clearly about it.

Yes you should use Metamask as added security to avoid hacking. It is good to use if you are trading in a decentralize platform like EtherDelta. You can also use it for transferring tokens without compromising your private key.

Hi! This is not the question should you use it or not, some people just prefer it over other services, I have never used it for myself and I am quite ok with that. I am using only myetherwallet and it works good for me.

I am also using myetherwallet because I have secured my altcoins differently. Afcorsee, if you are scared because of the possible theft the MetaMask is the best solution for you but even with it, the hacker can steal your money if he is smart and consistent enough. I would recommend it although I ain't using it. It is also highly advertised over the network and also the newbies in the crypto field had heard about it. Some don't use it and also ain't securing their wallets with the back software or hardware wallets and some of them had experienced the loss of their portfolio because of the laziness to secure it properly.

yes you can use metamask for your token safety  but first make sure that your operating system is 100% clean and secured by virus

I think you should definitely use MetaMask. MetaMask will increase your security level when using MyEtherWallet. This way you keep your private key safe and secure.

Metamask is only designed for Ethereum wallet. It is an added security so yu don't have to put your private key on a decentralize trading platform like Etherdelta.  I only use it for trading purposes but i do not use it for storing my Ethereum token.

Metamask is one of the great ways to store ETH and ERC-20 tokens. Metamask is also recommended by Myetherwallet to ensure the safety of everyone's property. Its security feature is very good, anti-stealing private key when logging in and when you visit the fake sites it will have red alert to help you avoid being cheated. In addition, you can also easily unlock your MyEtherWallet with Metamask and can create multiple wallet addresses. I think you should use it. This is just my advice

Yes. There are more citizens in bitcoin that believe to use metamask is one of the safety to use. I guess it is true because not only one person who says that but they are more. You can try to use it then if you don't like how it works then change your wallet.
