Ledger Live "scanning for Metamask account"

[asche]

So I just updated Ledger Live to the latest version.

Changelog is:

General
Fix a UI glitch displaying miscalculated or negative fees in operation details and send flow.

Allow Ledger Live to display notifications for crypto asset events.

Added two more platforms to buy crypto: BTC-Direct and Coinberry.

Minor improvements in UI.

Crypto assets related
Prepare future support of XSN and KMD through Sapling.

ETH and ETC: scan for Metamask accounts.

DCR: fix transaction bug affecting some users.

HSR and POSW: blockchain synchronization and send feature fixed.

Other crypto assets: fix “getVarint” errors for various assets.

Does anyone have any information about that new "feature"? Technical details or what it is supposed to do?

Thanks

From memory, Ledger originally used a slightly different derivation (m/44'/60'/0') for ETH/ETC wallets to what became the "standard" (m/44'/60'/0'/0)...

MEW and MyCrypto used to ask which path you wanted to use... I'm wondering if the "Metamask accounts" are simply ETH accounts using a different ("standard") derivation path?

I guess this is related, yes. But u don't see what ledger live wants with it?

Just show the transactions on both derivation paths? Or something more interesting perhaps?
