Topic: Should I be using MetaMask? - page 6. (Read 716 times)
As for the other coins, I do not know, but this application helps to avoid getting into phishing sites, which is very important if you do not want to lose your money.
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?

my opinion is...
whatever security system used, all back to us.
But, for me.... i think Json is enough to maintain security.
with a note, we use the computer / laptop personally. Not to everyone.
Its almost required if you want to trade on ED. It allows you to set gas limits, while ED doesn't
it's amazing that I did not attach importance to this wallet, but now I decided to reconsider my views and decided to pay more attention to this purse
I established it very simply as a google extension. As etherdelta exchange still can not be trusted, it feels safer to sign purchases via matemask.
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.
Isn't MEW more secure though? I mean, if you create an offline paper wallet using MEW...
MetaMask is a better way to access your ERC20 tokens as it has extra layers of security though I'm not entirely sure what they are. But either way, use MetaMask especially since it can be installed as a plugin and is easily accessible.
Meta mask is a good measure to safe ourself from phishing attack which is a big and common way of stealing your money. It automatically block bad links and save u from being robbed
I use it and like how user-friendly it is - you can try it out, it's really easy to install (add on to browser)
MM is only for ETH + ERC20 tokens. Offline wallets are ALWAYS more secure than a wallet connected to the internet. Be sure to keep your key in a safe place, such as Lastpass. Nice thing about MM is it's ready to go for decentralized web apps and works across other browsers than Chrome such as Firefox, Opera and Brave. You can also run the same wallet in both MEW & MM. I'm not aware of a browser wallet for non-ERC20 so I'd recommend using a versatile wallet such as Jaxx, Exodus or others out there if that's your requirement, or use multiple wallet apps for different coins as no wallet handles all 1400+ cryptos and tokens.
