    Primary DeFi Wallet

    Date: Dec 17 2021

    Summary: It's one of the most ubiquitous DeFi wallets on the market. Almost every decentralized exchange and application allows you to connect with MetaMask. I recommend it.

    Positive: Simple interface, easy to use once you get the hang of it. Seems to be one of the first and most widely accepted DeFi wallets and dApp browsers on the market.

    Negative: Interface looks a bit dated compared to Phantom wallet. Sometimes is a bit buggy but I'm not sure if that is due to MetaMask or the network or dapp it's connected to.

    Great Ethereum Wallet

    Date: Jun 11 2021

    Summary: Overall I feel like MetaMask is a great external wallet and browser. It connects well with other applications and is very secure. Definitely would recommend.

    Positive: I like that you have the ability to both hold your Ethereum on MetaMask and connect other networks to be able to use other coins as well.

    Negative: There is a bit of a difference between the desktop version and the mobile version. For example you have to be on the desktop version to add different networks.

    Positive: The interface is really easy to use, and it didn't take long to figure out all the features, which are not at all lacking. The Web3 browser built in is awesome too.

    Negative: It can take a while for pages to load occasionally but not often.

    A fairly simple way to deposit assets and transfer them.

    Date: Mar 28 2023

    Summary: MetaMask has met all my expectations since I started using it, this wallet has been key to being able to store a large number of assets in a simple way, in addition, the same wallet address for each Network that you register within it, that means yes, you will have the same wallet address for that Network and also for the BSC Network or the Tron network. This platform has made it possible for my community to be favored at all times, since I have been able to deposit a large amount of assets constantly, in addition, I have been able to make unlimited transfers, I have been able to enjoy low commissions on each transfer and I have also been able to enjoy much faster block processing than any other wallet. In conclusion, I have been very satisfied with the utility offered within this platform, I consider that it has been very important to be able to move a large number of assets within my company, in addition, it allows me to exchange CryptoCurrencies in a matter of seconds, it is really awesome.

    Positive: MetaMask is a very innovative platform when it comes to storing or saving all kinds of assets. With the help of this platform, you will be able to obtain a trusted wallet that will help you store a large amount of funds in an unlimited way. Some of the things I liked the most about this platform were:

    1- One of the first positive things that can be noticed within this platform is that you can register an unlimited number of Blockchain-type networks, this means that you can register networks such as Ethereum or TRON-type networks. This unlimited network registration helps a lot because you can store various CryptoCurrencies hosted on any type of network. In addition, the registration of new networks is quite simple, you just have to enter the port, the network address and configure parameters.

    2- Another feature that I liked about this wallet is the great security it has for each of the accounts created within it, every time you create an account, you can set up a two-step security for that wallet, plus you will also receive a seed phrase that will help you regain access to your account quickly, this phrase is about eight words long, and you will need to keep it in a safe place so that you can regain access to your account when you forget your wallet address or password key of it. This security makes me trust this wallet much more.

    3- The ability of this platform to process various actions simultaneously is impressive, which helps you to send assets to other wallets and what these actions take a few seconds to process correctly. The transfer blocks must be processed, and there are some wallets that take a long time to process the blocks, however, MetaMask processes them very quickly.

    4- One positive thing about this wallet is the availability it has, it is currently available as an extension for browsers, which greatly facilitates the mobility that you can have within this wallet and the transfer of assets so simple, in addition, you can install it within your mobile device and make transfers from your cell phone quickly.

    5- This wallet has an integrated browser, which will help you use this wallet and link to any website in a matter of seconds, in addition, this wallet also has a very device notification system, which will notify you every time you receive assets within the wallet addresses that you have associated in your wallet.

    Negative: I have not noticed any type of negative in relation to this wallet, since it has behaved excellently and has ensured that my assets in CryptoCurrencies are completely safe at all times, at no time has there been any type of loss within this wallet, in addition , I have never lost access to my wallet for any reason, so I must admit that the usefulness and satisfaction I get from using this awesome wallet, I am really very satisfied with the positive features.

    Wide security in the cryptocurrency deposit and transfer to third parties.

    Date: Jan 03 2023

    Summary: MetaMask is my number 1 platform to be able to deposit all kinds of assets in cryptocurrencies as I really loved the experience I got within this platform mainly because it helped me deposit a large amount of assets without any limit, also, it's amazing how I can deposit everything type of money and transfer it to any account without any type of restriction, this platform does not use any type of block when we make transfers on a specific day, which helps a lot to deposit or transfer money to anyone without any limit. I really loved The pressure tinged with this platform, how it helped me a lot to protect each of my funds in cryptocurrencies, also, it helped me a lot to deposit money to anyone just by using a network address, also, within this platform I do not run the risk of my money being lost, Since it has amazing two-step security and also has some default codes to recover your account in case of loss points I feel safe using this platform, I consider all my assets within this platform to be fully insurance.

    Positive: MetaMask is an amazing service to store a large amount of cryptocurrencies securely, the things I liked the most about this platform were:

    1- I really loved the extension that is available for browsers, this extension is quite useful, it allows you to access your wallet instantly, manage each of the cryptocurrency funds that you have deposited, this extension is very beneficial to quickly access your wallet.

    2- I also loved the way in which this platform allows me to deposit all kinds of funds without any type of Limit. I can store the amount of money I want without having to worry about any kind of Limit in this wallet, also, I loved the fact that I can register various cryptocurrency networks, Since I was able to register networks such as BSC and ETH.

    3- Fund transfers are processed almost instantly, you just have to wait for the blocks in the transfer to be processed so that it is completed and the sender receives money, in addition, it is also important to highlight the low commissions that this wallet handles for sending money, This helps me a lot to be able to send a large amount of funds to specific people without paying a high commission.

    4- It has a built-in browser, this browser is only available within the mobile version, and it is too functional and beneficial, since you can access any website and link your wallet instantly since the wallet is linked to the browser. This browser has all the necessary functions so that you can surf the internet smoothly and you can access any website and use your metamask wallet.

    Negative: One of the main negative causes of this platform are:

    1- It is a somewhat difficult wallet to use, since you have to register the corresponding networks so that you can deposit money into this wallet, therefore, the use of this platform can be a bit complex for those who do not have previous experience or some knowledge in cryptocurrency wallets, therefore, I recommend that caution be exercised when using it and depositing funds into it.

    2- Despite the fact that the application for mobile devices is quite beneficial since it has a built-in browser with this application, it takes a long time to start correctly and correctly order the funds from your wallet, Therefore, if you want agility when connecting to your wallet, you can choose to use the browser extension, this way you will not have to wait a long time for the wallet to load correctly.

    Fully secure wallet to deposit any type of asset.

    Date: Nov 22 2022

    Summary: Metamask has met my expectations and my needs, mainly I started using this platform because I needed a place like a cold wallet to deposit my assets, so that in this way they remain safe and that no person can access them or for some reason they could lose The difference between depositing money in this wallet and it is an online payment processor, is that within this wallet there is no risk of losing money, the only way to lose it is to transfer it incorrectly to any other wallet. I currently use this wallet within my company, with the main objective of keeping safe all the assets that are invested in this real estate company, we currently have coins in our property, and we have stored each of them within this wallet to have access to it when necessary and being able to transfer them makes any online payment platform quickly. When we thought about using this platform, we had to configure some security phrases, I loved this function, since these phrases allow me to recover access to my account, If for some reason I don't remember my wallet address, I can easily enter that phrase and I will have immediate access to my account, this is very important when recovering a lost account. I will continue to use this very secure wallet, I consider all my assets to be safe within this cold wallet.

    Positive: MetaMask has been a very important wallet when it comes to keeping all my assets within it, because this platform has provided me with a wide variety of CryptoCurrencies that I can add to different trading networks. One of the main things I liked about this platform is the great variety when it comes to inserting any type of cryptocurrency. This platform allows me to register any new transaction network, so just a few steps, adding the name of the network, and configuring the ports correctly, in this way I could add any other currency that exists within the Blockchain. Also, another of the features that I liked about this wallet is that it has an integrated browser, this browser allows me to access any website and use my wallet as a plugin or extension, it is the same as using any other browser and having it installed the MetaMask extension, This browser is quite fluid, and it is integrated directly into the wallet, which allows me to access any website and use all my assets easily. Also, I loved how fast all transactions are processed, the platform has block management and processing is quite fast, which helps all assets to be transferred and received quickly.

    Negative: One of the first negative things that is important to mention about this platform is that it does not have any type of instructions, therefore, if there is a new user who is starting to use the platform, they should look for information on the Internet so as not to commit any type of error that makes you lose your money, since this wallet does not have instructions to start using it or to deposit money. With respect to the functions provided by this wallet, I consider that I have never had any type of problem with any of them, this wallet has always behaved to measure and has provided important functions to process all types of transactions quickly, I have never presented any type of of problem with any transfer that I have made, also, all the money that I have deposited inside this wallet has remained safe, nobody has been able to enter my wallet in any way, this is very important since that platform maintains security and privacy on all deposited assets.

    Reliable platform to receive your coins and send them to any recipient.

    Date: Aug 30 2022

    Summary: I have used this application for two purposes, the main objective I had with this application is to be able to protect myself by writing coins to transfer them to any friend or family member, since in my day to day I sometimes had to transfer text coins to make a payment to a friend , but I have also used it within my business waist, to make payments in a decentralized way, this application has been really useful to send money to my employees or to some clients, it is a fairly reliable payment and transfer method and it works in a decentralized way and will keep your money safe at all times.

I will continue to use it long term.

    Positive: MetaMask is a reliable platform when it comes to saving your Cryptocurrencies and transferring them to any recipient, this is a cold wallet, so it is not regulated by any entity or company, with the help of this wallet you can receive all the Victor coins you want without any limits, and you can also send money to your family or friends just using a simple wallet address, this platform is very well made, very easy to use and available for all devices. What I liked most about this platform is:

    1.- It does not have any type of limit when making transfers to any recipient, you can send the amount of money coins that you want, in addition, there is also no type of limit regarding the number of transactions you can make in a normal day, this wallet has a freedom when transferring your money which is very beneficial for users.

Therefore, this integrated browser will only serve you to access sites and link your corresponding wallet.

    4.- It is a fairly light application, a download version is available for computers, an extension type version for browsers and a version for mobile devices is also available, for iOS and Android devices, when you download this application on your mobile device you will notice that quite a bit light, it also consumes very few resources during its operation on the mobile device.

    5.- You can register any type of currency within the wallet, that means that if you have bought a new Cryptocurrency that has recently been released and is not listed, just by manually registering this Cryptocurrency within the wallet, you can receive all those funds with just a simple button.

    Negative: It has never really presented any type of problem with this wallet, since I started using it I have noticed that comfort has always been present, in addition, I have noticed that all the transfers made reach their recipient in a matter of seconds, it only takes The confirmations of the network need to be processed so that the money has been received correctly, at no time have I presented any type of failure since the use of the application for mobile devices and neither within the application for computers, both applications have behaved excellently, providing significantly good transfer during use. I really hope that this platform continues to be like this, I am very happy that I have not presented any failure, in addition, my money has always been safe inside this cold wallet.

    My true thoughts on MetaMask

    Date: Feb 24 2022

    Summary: Overall, I think that MetaMask is undervalued. However, crypto wallets as a whole need to make their experience with less friction.

    Positive: MetaMask as a non-custodial wallet is great as it allows for people to easily receive and transfer funds.

    Negative: The only concerns that I have with most wallets is their on-ramp and off-ramp with fiat and also their usability by non-crypto people.

    I wish I didn't have to use it, but it works for what it does.

    Date: Nov 11 2021

    Summary: This product works. It provides security and backing when swapping and connecting things. I hope that the altcoin market catches up but until then we'll se how things go.

    Positive: Honestly it sucks to have to use this at all, but it's the best option for connecting altcoin wallets and exchanges and swaps and such.

    Negative: Having to use this product at all. But it does have good functionality.

    Metamask is a MUST-HAVE for DeFi !

    Date: Jun 25 2021

    Summary: When I first started exploring the world of cryptocurrency decentralized finance (DeFi) several months ago, I was lost to say the least.
    Then I discovered Metamask which I soon realized was the standard for a browser extension crypto web wallet. Once I installed it a massive world was revealed to me.

    The multi chain compatibility is incredible. A little bit of web searching and you'll find tutorials how to add custom RPC networks to Metamask which you can then switch between with a simple click. It keeps track of your coins and tokens across many of the L2 Ethereum side chains including Avalanche, Polygon (MATIC), Binance Smart Chain, xDAI, FANTOM, RSK and more.
    This allows you to explore DeFi at its best. I can yield farm on Polygon, provide Liquidity on Ethereum and stake AVAX on the Avalanche Network all at the same time. Metamask doesn't miss a beat.
    It also allows you to create multiple accounts (i.e. ETH addresses) based off your master private keys. I use this feature to keep what I call a separate reserve account, a savings account and a checking account and I treat them as such. The reserve account only gets crypto sent to it, but never sends itself. The savings account is where profit goes and the checking account is for day to day interaction with all the various DeFi protocols.

    It's overwhelming at first, but Metamask has a really helpful support website and community forum. Just be ready to help yourself since they don't respond to support requests in a timely fashion.
    Pro Tip: Metamask is an excellent software crypto wallet to help you get your coins on exchanges and into DeFi projects. HOWEVER, it is by nature a HOT WALLET, meaning it's online and therefore can be a target for scammers and hackers. Don't store large sums of Crypto on it longer than you need to. Keep your reserves offline in a cold wallet like a Ledger. This is not a flaw of Metamask, rather it's just the nature of hot wallets.
    And #1 is when you install Metamask it will reveal a 12 word recovery phrase. THIS IS YOUR ONLY BACKUP OF YOUR WALLET. FOLLOW DIRECTIONS AND WRITE IT DOWN ON PAPER WITH PENCIL. STORE IT SAFELY AND NEVER, EVER GIVE THAT PHRASE OUT TO ANYONE.
    Metamask will NEVER ask you for it, and anyone that does is trying to scam you. Never take a picture of it, or enter it on a computer in ANY FORM. THIS IS THE ONLY WAY YOU CAN BE SURE TO KEEP YOUR CRYPTO SAFE AS POSSIBLE.
    If you break any of these rules, even for 5 seconds, you risk losing your Crypto. Don't even point your phone camera at your phrase. Don't print it out. Don't copy it to your clipboard or password manager.
    Simply write it down, check it, then store it safely. Never reveal it. It is only to be used to restore your wallet in the event of a crash or new device. No exceptions! You will thank me for this I promise.

    To sum up, interacting with the DeFi space is next to impossible without Metamask. There are other similar extensions but none as efficient as Metamask. Stick to using it on a secure browser like Brave, and avoid too much use on your phone (it's a bit buggy that way), and read all you can about keeping your cryptocurrency secure. Metamask is a fantastic tool but you need to learn how to use it to build what you want in the DeFi space.
    Good luck and remember - NEVER REVEAL YOUR PRIVATE PHRASE OR PRIVATE KEYS. Not your keys, not your crypto!

    Positive: -Near perfect integration with Chromium based web browsers (I recommend Brave Browser)
    -Can be configured to run on multiple Ethereum L2 sidechains (Polygon, Avalanche, BSC, xDAI and more)
    -Automatically estimates Gas (fee) prices based on transaction type and can also be user adjusted
    -Can work as a bridge between your hardware wallet and the blockchain.

    Negative: -Android and iOS versions can be buggy and laggy
    -Doesn't automatically sever connections to websites after logging out. Requires manual disconnect, one by one.
    -Support tickets can take weeks or longer to be answered.

    Not a fan of MetaMask

    Date: Apr 28 2021

    Summary: Overall experience is bad because I am disappointed app is very laggy.
    Bad reviews all over play store and app store.

    Positive: What I like is it's easier to function.
    Easy to buy crypto.
    App design is good 👍
    I can't think of anything else that's really good in this app.

    Negative: Every time I have to switch app for example to copy sellers account number and to paste it in my payment app. It take me back to the first step that is buy ETH. It's frustrating.
    In India the app is good enough bc there's no debit card transaction option.

    Negative: Well, horrible customer support, i lost $400 of WETH, which was there fault, I never used the wallet and al of a sudden it disappeared, my secret was stored securely and everything.

    Review

    Date: Dec 16 2021

    Summary: I will take my funds away as soon as i can. I will have to use multiple wallets to do what i did with MetaMask, but at least those would work and my funds will be safe.

    Positive: There is no other option to use so universally.
    Good for simple transactions such as sending/receiving.

    Negative: Worst customer support ever.
    Keeps bugging and there is nothing you can do to access your funds and customer support is inexistent.
    Doesn't exist as desktop app, only browser extension.

    Do Not Use Metamask!

    Date: Nov 01 2021
