Title: Should I be using MetaMask? Post by: Phriend on January 11, 2018, 02:43:46 PM 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? Title: Re: Should I be using MetaMask? Post by: tokencoin on January 11, 2018, 03:42:35 PM 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.

Title: Re: Should I be using MetaMask? Post by: aidenafterall on January 11, 2018, 05:20:44 PM 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.
Title: Re: Should I be using MetaMask? Post by: squesto on January 11, 2018, 05:40:45 PM 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)
Title: Re: Should I be using MetaMask? Post by: waqarkahloon on January 11, 2018, 06:54:07 PM 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
Title: Re: Should I be using MetaMask? Post by: shaun98 on January 12, 2018, 03:17:39 PM 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.

Title: Re: Should I be using MetaMask? Post by: natureltiqqy on January 12, 2018, 04:30:22 PM 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.
Title: Re: Should I be using MetaMask? Post by: Stasnislav11 on January 12, 2018, 05:33:52 PM 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
Title: Re: Should I be using MetaMask? Post by: kamandanu on January 12, 2018, 05:34:36 PM Its almost required if you want to trade on ED. It allows you to set gas limits, while ED doesn't

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. Title: Re: Should I be using MetaMask? Post by: dzkrb1966 on January 12, 2018, 05:53:57 PM 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.
Title: Re: Should I be using MetaMask? Post by: panduryk on January 12, 2018, 05:59:06 PM I also recently went to the MEW and saw warnings that (Keystone / JSON File) is not 100% safe, although before this was not.
I generally trust the JSON file that I have on the flash drive. And to install some add-on in the browser, how can it be more secure? I even read a few cases that wallets were hacked through MM Title: Re: Should I be using MetaMask? Post by: mummybtc on January 12, 2018, 06:34:41 PM Yes you should, one need to take every precautions possible alot of people are losing their funds to all these phishing site and meta mask help with that, I don't think there is any for now application for other coins that serve the purpose metamask is doing for ethereum wallet
Title: Re: Should I be using MetaMask? Post by: ukboss on January 12, 2018, 06:50:15 PM Yes you can use Meta Mask for your better security. Meta Mask is very easy to use and it is help you for your account security and if you want to buy and sell altcoin no need to use your privet key on Etherdelta so you can use Meta Mask.
Title: Re: Should I be using MetaMask? Post by: redsandisk on January 12, 2018, 07:00:28 PM i use it but i don't keep any coins stored there.
Title: Re: Should I be using MetaMask? Post by: Huskarls on January 12, 2018, 11:44:01 PM yes, you have to use metamask, do you remember a while ago DNS etherdelta hacked? many people who then followed the bounty campaign, wallet claimed dihack, right or wrong, when everything is like this, they all ask the bounty manager to change their wallet address and it is very slow the process of counting bounty. the bounty manager also suggested to use metamask.
Title: Re: Should I be using MetaMask? Post by: 949miner on January 12, 2018, 11:45:38 PM If you want more security, just avoid using MetaMask, you can easily lost all your funds if you get hacked or spoofed.
I'm a newbie with some technical skills, but not a lot.Should I be using MetaMask for added security? If you really care about your security, just invest $70 in a ledger wallet, and use one of the addreses that it provides to you. By this way, you can attach your MEW to your ledger, and there is no way that someone can still hack your coins or just stole them from you. Take my advice, you will remember my words, do not use metamask. Title: Re: Should I be using MetaMask? Post by: TonixGaming_14 on January 12, 2018, 11:57:34 PM I'm a newbie with some technical skills, but not a lot. If you are using MetaMask this use for the security your coin to sell in Trading like Etherdelta.Should I be using MetaMask for added security? What does MetaMask do for me, exactly?

Metamask is more secure than MEW. If you'll actually notice the announcements and notifications on MEW they DO NOT recommend simply using MEW with your private keys. The best thing to do, according to MEW, would be to use a third party tool like Metamask. They already explicitly say it. From my experience, i've been loving metamask as well. Its simple to use and easily lets you configure GWEI price. Title: Re: Should I be using MetaMask?

Metamask are very good and safest ways to access your wallet on MEW (Erc20). you can Install it from google chrome extensions. because with that app , you can access your wallet without put your Private key. so this is way can avoid us from phising or the other method of hacking Title: Re: Should I be using MetaMask?

Post by: KluFf on January 13, 2018, 03:46:15 AM I'm a newbie with some technical skills, but not a lot. well i guess . metamask is much safer than MyEtherWallet.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? and may be you need to learn more about metamask. but i guess for beginner try MyEtherWallet just safely store your Privatekey Title: Re: Should I be using MetaMask? Post by: johnleo on January 13, 2018, 05:26:14 AM I never use metamask, just using mew. For security as long as you don't open phishing website, I think it always save. And never try to open 'mew link' from anyweb, I always open it from my bookmark and until now I still save.
Title: Re: Should I be using MetaMask? Post by: linhaidu on January 13, 2018, 06:21:59 AM If you only have several coins, I think it is OK to keep everywhere.
If you have some coins, I think it is convenient to use the online wallet. If you have a lot of coins, I think it is advisable to keep in the hard wallet. Title: Re: Should I be using MetaMask? Post by: qiwoman2 on January 13, 2018, 06:28:44 AM I personally want to buy a computer and use it just to store offline wallets, or will get some nanos and trezors but to be honest, I am waiting for the ethos wallet to happen as that will hold all our coins in a secure vault, will almost be like a crypto wallet/bank, so am trying to be patient for that. I opened many MEW addresses, not just one wallet to divide my coins and am looking at metamask also. I am not very technical but am looking at security, also exchanges I always use 2fa now.
Title: Re: Should I be using MetaMask? Post by: trudovik on January 13, 2018, 08:50:59 AM Of course it's worth using metamasque, because it can save a little from hackers and other kind of wicked people, now they very strongly began to use various tricks to empty your wallets.
Title: Re: Should I be using MetaMask? Post by: Mevz on January 13, 2018, 09:00:26 AM Yes, you should use metamask it is suggested by some exchangers like etherdelta, because their exchangers are so laggy so for your safety better use metamask for the safety of your ethereum balances or tokens. You should just import your private key when you start to use it. Ive already use it many times and im satisfied with its service.

Title: Re: Should I be using MetaMask? Post by: tushkanych on January 13, 2018, 03:11:58 PM Any browser extension it is a potential threat for you. Metamask is no exception. I ordered already the Ledger Nano to store cryptocurrency. Think it would be much safer.
Title: Re: Should I be using MetaMask? Post by: trudovik on January 14, 2018, 08:42:54 AM Today I read about the meta-mask it's just an extension on google chrome there's nothing complicated to install it on Linux Fedora. I use Linux Fedora and I for us have no problem putting something, so in between I would like to advise it to you
Title: Re: Should I be using MetaMask? Post by: haidangtp on January 14, 2018, 09:02:38 AM I like MEW more than MM. I used to use MM on ED but found it a bit complicated for me. Also, I import a private key into ED so I continued to use it knowing that it was a bad security
Title: Re: Should I be using MetaMask? Post by: Amalker on January 14, 2018, 09:10:20 AM Yes, in the beginning for more security you can use Metamask. It can help you to avoid some security problems.
Title: Re: Should I be using MetaMask? Post by: eddysachs on January 14, 2018, 11:18:11 PM Metamask is cool and easy to use... I like the fact that it has a lot of ERC20 token options and smartly integrates with Ether Delta to trade. MEW is also a very useful wallet for ERC20 tokens.
Title: Re: Should I be using MetaMask? Post by: cryptoux on January 14, 2018, 11:38:02 PM Metamask helps you to transact easily ,the private keys are being stored in metamask and you dont need it to put in exchanges.Ive been using it from the start and i dont encounter any problems using it.
Title: Re: Should I be using MetaMask? Post by: jan.nicolas on January 15, 2018, 06:54:49 AM Definitely worth using, I've recently figured out all the same what it is, there's nothing complicated, it's just an addon on google chrome so there's nothing to be afraid of and it's not worth while to understand too.
Title: Re: Should I be using MetaMask? Post by: Svelto on January 15, 2018, 12:42:27 PM My personal experience is that meta mask is quite lag and not user friendly. I prefer to use a hardware wallet and it support not only ETH and ERC20 tokens, BTC, LTC and other altcoins are supported too. It is more secure in my opinion.
Title: Re: Should I be using MetaMask? Post by: Shaofalova on January 15, 2018, 12:56:28 PM I use MetaMask, and like it.. But I'll plan to buy ledger or trezor.. Think it's more secure
Title: Re: Should I be using MetaMask? Post by: sokicsokic on January 28, 2018, 10:43:43 AM i restored my metamask from seed and when i write password metamask give me another seed.. i tried login on metamask with both seeds and is working ... now i have 2 differend 12 word seeds for same account,why i get another seed for same account?
Title: Re: Should I be using MetaMask? Post by: terible.hunter on January 28, 2018, 10:55:33 AM To be honest, I still have not figured out how Metamask works and what it's for, how it prevents the possibility of a hacking account. A lot of questions, but in any case if people say that this is a useful thing, then probably this is really useful software. So just try to install
Title: Re: Should I be using MetaMask? Post by: agiskasep on January 28, 2018, 10:57:16 AM That good metamask user never get hacked because it wallet ia very safe. But should install extention on browser

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? MetaMask is for securing ERC20 supported wallets and can make you comfortable using the site for trading and holding. It allows you to easily access dAPP with the use of the private key and allows you to visit the ethereum sites. Also, metamask make it more accessible and more secured for all the users of ethereum. This plugin can also interact in the ethereum blockchain which is very convenient and interact with different smart contracts. Title: Re: Should I be using MetaMask? Post by: onesalt on January 28, 2018, 11:07:18 AM For the security reasons, in insecure platforms (sorry to say that, example: etherdelta), you should be using metamask.
Title: Re: Should I be using MetaMask? Post by: Freezingel on January 28, 2018, 11:15:26 AM I'm a newbie with some technical skills, but not a lot. Yup, metamask is better than MEW because it offer more layer of security to your wallet, it also works for erc20 tokens and there's tons of them on the market so it's a big plus. Other coin that doesn't use ethereum blockchain has different official wallet and I don't think there's one for that, even hardware wallet like nano ledger s doesn't support all token but only some famous one.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? Title: Re: Should I be using MetaMask? Post by: shams on January 28, 2018, 11:18:07 AM I have never used MetaMask before for me MyEtherWallet (MEW) is best and I am using it for last one year and its good and secure for me and if you like MetaMask then you can use it but if you want to use something else I will recommend you to use My Ether Wallet its also a good wallet and it is also based on Ethereum Based Tokens just keep your private keys secure then you are safe.

Post by: Babayan on January 28, 2018, 11:19:14 AM For the security reasons, in insecure platforms (sorry to say that, example: etherdelta), you should be using metamask. Yes, Metamask provides you more security in dealing with erc-20 tokens. But you can also install the other software like web of trust and so on to check if one or the other website is worth visitingTitle: Re: Should I be using MetaMask?

Also, MetaMask seems to only work for Ethereum-based coins. Is there an extension like MetaMask available for the other coins? yes you can use metamask or you can also use myetherwallet to receive a coin that suport ERC20 and make sure you keep the secret key used to get into your wallet. Title: Re: Should I be using MetaMask? Post by: miklesm on January 28, 2018, 11:31:22 AM You definitely should use Metamask or some kind of cold storage wallets. I was using MyEtherWallet for a while and I've been hacked recently, so I lost all my valuable tokens. Don't ignore the security, it is especially important in crypto world.
Title: Re: Should I be using MetaMask? Post by: joemanabat05 on January 28, 2018, 11:32:28 AM There are lot of securities you can used but using a metamask is also a recommendable. Jut make it sure that you will be the responsible of your key.
Title: Re: Should I be using MetaMask? Post by: Faruque312 on January 28, 2018, 11:40:17 AM i think it is the best i also use it, it is more then safe etherdelta, i leave from etherdelta for metamask, dont you think its hard, it is really easy to use.
Title: Re: Should I be using MetaMask? Post by: svobodnyi on January 28, 2018, 11:50:12 AM Of course you need to use extensions like Metamasc. You can not enter a private key from your MEW to get full access to the purse, for example. Save your money if MEW is hacked! (That already happened 2 weeks ago)

Is there an extension like MetaMask available for the other coins? - Full featured ETH wallet, Erc20 - Anti-theft key log - Unlock MyEtherWallet.com quick, click open - When surfing on fake web sites, it will show red notifications I think you should use it Title: Re: Should I be using MetaMask? Post by: ZaoXhou on January 28, 2018, 11:55:58 AM You don't have to use it, you will be fine without it if you know what you're doing. It's just an extra security layer.
Title: Re: Should I be using MetaMask? Post by: ramsay snow on January 28, 2018, 12:06:27 PM if you care about your safety, you should definitely use metamask. we have heard a lot of news that etherdelta hacked before. we can always encounter such things. it is very important that you be cautious for this reason :) very easy to use, no difficulties

Also, MetaMask seems to only work for Ethereum-based coins. Is there an extension like MetaMask available for the other coins? you must always use Metamask where its required. I am mostly using Metamask while I trade on ETH based DEX like etherdelta, etc. Pros of using metamask: Your private key remains with you in your browser and is never shared with exchanges. Usually they have a list of phishing websites maintained under radar, so if you mistakenly visit any sch website, it warns you and save you from getting hacked. Cons: Only for ETH based tokens Do not have 2FA Title: Re: Should I be using MetaMask? Post by: DiceChain on January 28, 2018, 12:13:07 PM Metasmak is very good. There is nothing to blame for it. It helps you block attacks and protect your tokens
Title: Re: Should I be using MetaMask? Post by: criptix on January 28, 2018, 12:17:46 PM If you talk about metamask and mew and think they are secure then you are a noob.
Just pay 100$ for a hardware wallet. Title: Re: Should I be using MetaMask? Post by: RandyMagnum on March 02, 2018, 09:58:01 AM anyone having issues with Metamask? Can't deposit tokens to IDEX, says me to unlock wallet while it's already unlocked
Title: Re: Should I be using MetaMask? Post by: sudhirratra68 on March 03, 2018, 02:51:46 AM Yes, you should use it!
MetaMask is more than just an Ether wallet. It's an Ethereum Browser, like Mist! It allows you all the same functions, features, and ease of access from regular Ethereum Wallets, and it allows you to interact with Dapps and Smart Contracts, and all without the need to download the blockchain or install any software, you can just install it as a Google Chrome Extension! Plus, it has a cool fox logo that follows your mouse around, which made us smile. MetaMask includes a secure identity vault, providing a user interface to manage your identities on different sites and sign blockchain transactions. Title: Re: Should I be using MetaMask? Post by: Daniel9140 on March 03, 2018, 11:46:43 AM Its definitely a good step in the right direction to use metamask because, it dosen't only serve as a wallet, but it protects you from phishing websites.
I use metamask to trade on Idex and Etherdelta as it protects my wallet. Some sites would ask you to provide your private keys but with metamask, you can use it in such sites if you are trading an an ERC20 token. Title: Re: Should I be using MetaMask? Post by: crimsongoth on March 03, 2018, 12:01:19 PM An investor who wants to make money on the ETH blockchain should start to use MetaMask, which to meet the safety and speed requirements. There is no alternative to this at the moment.
Title: Re: Should I be using MetaMask? Post by: khoidaonguyen on March 03, 2018, 12:02:29 PM Yes im using metamask since beginning and love it. Also stop you from fishing websites and dodgy stuffs.
Title: Re: Should I be using MetaMask? Post by: jc123 on March 03, 2018, 12:07:07 PM Yes if you want your a wallet a better security, if you worry too much if your money is safe then yes you use meta mask.....
Title: Re: Should I be using MetaMask? Post by: luongdk on March 03, 2018, 12:07:50 PM Metamask is useful in case of keyloger atack. But in case of using other softwares it wouldn't help you. Be careful and everything will be good with you and your earnings. It is the only, that can really save it.
Title: Re: Should I be using MetaMask? Post by: svobodnyi on March 03, 2018, 12:12:23 PM With MetaMask, you can send the eth without entering a private key on the official MEW website. MetaMask also helps you track transactions and tokens. With it, you can access the MEW website without entering a password from your wallet. Title: Re: Should I be using MetaMask? Post by: Bonus777 on March 03, 2018, 12:15:18 PM When using any wallet, one must be guided by common sense and security policy. And then your coins will be all right. Metamask is a good wallet. But if you do something stupid in terms of security, then it will not protect your savings.
Title: Re: Should I be using MetaMask? Post by: goodrus69 on March 03, 2018, 05:26:36 PM MetaMask has additional levels of security and excellent protection against phishing. I use google extension, and it's easy to use software for me.
Title: Re: Should I be using MetaMask? Post by: kurucan on March 03, 2018, 05:32:43 PM MetaMask is the best way to keep your coins safety in your wallet. There are a lot of people who got robbed in different ways.

Be sure to use MetaMask when trading on EthreDelta. This will keep your coins safe! Title: Re: Should I be using MetaMask? Post by: gustavroy on March 03, 2018, 05:40:14 PM I use metamask since when I met the cyrpto.This is the best way for security.Also you can use your ether wallet with file password.There are best way to keep erc20 tokens
Title: Re: Should I be using MetaMask? Post by: almtu on March 03, 2018, 05:42:04 PM Yes. There are more citizens in bitcoin that believe to use metamask is one of the safety to use. I guess it is true because not only one person who says that but they are more. You can try to use it then if you don't like how it works then change your wallet.
Title: Re: Should I be using MetaMask? Post by: PhucS on March 03, 2018, 05:58:49 PM I'm a newbie with some technical skills, but not a lot. Metamask is one of the great ways to store ETH and ERC-20 tokens. Metamask is also recommended by Myetherwallet to ensure the safety of everyone's property. Its security feature is very good, anti-stealing private key when logging in and when you visit the fake sites it will have red alert to help you avoid being cheated. In addition, you can also easily unlock your MyEtherWallet with Metamask and can create multiple wallet addresses. I think you should use it. This is just my adviceShould I be using MetaMask for added security? What does MetaMask do for me, exactly? Also, MetaMask seems to only work for Ethereum-based coins.

Post by: Nakaba on March 03, 2018, 11:49:22 PM I'm a newbie with some technical skills, but not a lot. Metamask is only designed for Ethereum wallet. It is an added security so yu don't have to put your private key on a decentralize trading platform like Etherdelta. I only use it for trading purposes but i do not use it for storing my Ethereum token. Should I be using MetaMask for added security? What does MetaMask do for me, exactly?

Post by: IloveDigibyte on March 03, 2018, 11:53:27 PM I think you should definitely use MetaMask. MetaMask will increase your security level when using MyEtherWallet. This way you keep your private key safe and secure.
Title: Re: Should I be using MetaMask? Post by: sadwage on March 04, 2018, 01:09:41 AM yes you can use metamask for your token safety but first make sure that your operating system is 100% clean and secured by virus

Also, MetaMask seems to only work for Ethereum-based coins. Is there an extension like MetaMask available for the other coins? I am also using myetherwallet because I have secured my altcoins differently. Afcorsee, if you are scared because of the possible theft the MetaMask is the best solution for you but even with it, the hacker can steal your money if he is smart and consistent enough. I would recommend it although I ain't using it. It is also highly advertised over the network and also the newbies in the crypto field had heard about it. Some don't use it and also ain't securing their wallets with the back software or hardware wallets and some of them had experienced the loss of their portfolio because of the laziness to secure it properly. Title: Re: Should I be using MetaMask?

Post by: LeaderAMB on May 13, 2018, 10:10:00 PM I'm a newbie with some technical skills, but not a lot. Hi guy, As I hear some people say that that MetaMask is probably a big hit wallet which is used online by connecting computer to internet right now. But I’ve never ever used this wallet, I think that it is less secure than MEW. Now I am still using MEW, because I think that MEW is one of the most ways that keep our coins in secure way. Maybe everyone has their own feeling about both of these. I think that you’d better to try using it to know clearly about it. Should I be using MetaMask for added security?

Every way to secure is important, because bad people trying everything to steal your coins, so every security option will only be a plus
Title: Re: Should I be using MetaMask? Post by: Genamant on May 13, 2018, 10:54:41 PM 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. Metamask adds extra protection than merely using MEW, or having passphrase as a way of opening you MEW. Some incidents happened that MEW was compromised, in the sense that websites were made to re direct you to fake and phishing websites. So i'd say for ERC-20 tokens, metamask is a better choice and you can handle multiple eth wallets too. Title: Re: Should I be using MetaMask? Post by: YinShuiSiYuan on May 14, 2018, 04:29:58 PM You should use MetaMask because it provides very good protection against theft of money. Each additional protection of the wallet is most desirable to protect against theft.
Title: Re: Should I be using MetaMask? Post by: Anandhi on May 14, 2018, 04:32:26 PM As people experience that I read from this forum, using metamask is more safer than mew therefore using it will be better. If we can have a more secure wallet, why we don't use it.
Title: Re: Should I be using MetaMask? Post by: Fahim on May 14, 2018, 06:09:24 PM Yes, you are right, the MetaMask is used only for coins based on the Ethereum.
Perhaps in the future it will be possible to generate or attach already existing other wallets. I have a lot of wallets. Each of them has a different purpose. Not all wallets I have online and not all are tied to MetaMask. However, I use MetaMask always when login on decentralized exchanges. This fox warns about phishing sites. Also, passwords are already stored inside and there is no need to enter the password every time from the wallet. Title: Re: Should I be using MetaMask? Post by: bamita126 on May 15, 2018, 04:37:32 PM e have heard a lot of news that etherdelta hacked before. we can always encounter such things. it is very important that you be cautious for this reason Smiley very easy to use, no difficulties
Title: Re: Should I be using MetaMask? Post by: kingzues09 on May 20, 2018, 11:29:44 PM Yes you need to use metamask, If you have using it for a long time then that's good but remember it's a hot wallet so you must better buy trezor or nano ledger to keep your coins safe and secured.
Title: Re: Should I be using MetaMask? Post by: 00DKM@ on May 20, 2018, 11:39:31 PM You should use metamask to store tokens and ETH. It actually has more optimizations than MeW. You can easily manage multiple wallet codes on the same account and combine them with easy metamask.
Title: Re: Should I be using MetaMask? Post by: veraro on May 21, 2018, 12:31:44 PM Yes you can use MetaMask for security. Its help you to avoid fishing sites, it's easy and comfortable to use, at least for me. Besides you can connect your MEW with MetaMask, it is make myetherwallet more security.
Title: Re: Should I be using MetaMask? Post by: lovita26 on June 11, 2018, 06:37:11 AM I never use metamask, just using mew. For security as long as you don't open phishing website, I think it always save. And never try to open 'mew link' from anyweb, I always open it from my bookmark and until now I still save.

But the most secure way is probably to obtain hardwallet like TREZOR or Ledger. That will be the best way to keep your crypto save. Title: Re: Should I be using MetaMask? Post by: CryptoXis on August 26, 2018, 03:36:05 PM 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.

Title: Re: Should I be using MetaMask? Post by: abuhazzan on August 26, 2018, 05:24:22 PM Metamask ,i think, is needed if you want to trade directly on decentralized exchanges such as Idex, forkdelta, Tokenjar etc. Aside that, i doubt if you need metamask for any other thing
