MetaMask Extension

We’ve updated the MetaMask extension to maximize the control you have over your data, and limit the amount of user data sent to third-party services that are required to run the extension.

The primary changes to the wallet experience are during onboarding and within the “Security and Privacy” settings:

  • You are prompted to confirm the first three words of your Secret Recovery Phrase (SRP) when creating a MetaMask wallet

  • You can choose any RPC provider during onboarding and opt out of our default, Infura.

  • You can disable certain features that send requests to third-party APIs under the “Advanced configuration” settings, giving you more control over your data. These options are on by default as they are additive to the experience, but can be turned off for any reason:

    • Incoming Transactions

    • Phishing Detection

    • Choosing custom network
