Cosmos Ecosystem MetaMask Snap aims to bring the functionalities of MetaMask, a highly popular Ethereum wallet, to the Cosmos network, potentially opening the door to over 20 million Ethereum users and stimulating growth for every project in the Cosmos ecosystem.
MetaMask Snaps is an extensible platform for permissionless innovation that allows developers to extend the functionality of MetaMask with new features and APIs.
- Blockchains: Go beyond Ethereum with snaps for any protocol, including Cosmos.
- Layer 2s: Integrate any scaling solution and make exploring Layer 2s accessible to everyone.
- APIs: Connect your APIs and services to MetaMask in new and exciting ways.
- Identity: Enable authentication, privacy, and consent in ways that keep users in control.
- Security: Empower users with more ways to protect their data and employ anti-phishing solutions.
Security is paramount when it comes to MetaMask Snaps. Snaps execute in a sandboxed environment based on Hardened JavaScript (SES) by Agoric. MetaMask Snaps use a permissions model for protecting user data and respecting user consent.
Please note that MetaMask Snaps is pre-release software. To try out Snaps, you need to install MetaMask Flask, a canary distribution for developers that provides access to upcoming features.
