I have no idea what meta mask is but I’m constantly seeing posts like this. What’s making it so easy for people to lose their eth? I only use crypto for gambling so I’m probably just ignorant to whatever meta mask is used for
Metamask is a popular wallet you can use to send/receive/store your crypto on their respective blockchains. Metamask isn’t the reason people are losing their funds. It’s because people don’t properly protect their private keys.
And because they sign shady permissions left and right without thinking and/or revoking them when they are done using the platform.
The UX is terrible though. not necessarily the fault of metamask and more EVM related, but you mostly have no idea exactly what you are signing when interacting with contracts. Go tell your mom or grandma to revoke contracts after interacting with them. Is that really the web3 we want? This makes the web experience worse, not better.
