Crypto Wallet MetaMask Launches Delegation Toolkit at EthCC 7

MetaMask,

the crypto wallet launched by Ethereum developer firm Consensys, has released the MetaMask Delegation Toolkit, which allows “seamless onboarding” of users.

In an announcement made at EthCC 7, hosted in Brussels, the capital of Belgium, MetaMask said the package of developer tools and smart contracts allows dapps and protocols to build new experiences. The tools aim to give “granular levels of safety” tailored to users’ needs.

The tool will be available on Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) chain and is supported by a user operation bundler, including Arbitrum, Avalanche, Base, Linea, Optimism and Polygon.

“The MetaMask Delegation Toolkit will allow seamless onboarding of users into a new generation of dynamic and nimble experiences, which benefit from the kinds of rich collaboration that can only come from a new paradigm of authorization and composability,” said Dan Finlay, co-founder of MetaMask.

Onboarding Begins at EthCC

The crypto wallet firm said onboarding starts at EthCC. MetaMask will begin onboarding developers to help build using the toolkit. This will help explore the power of delegations to create user-friendly experiences with the help of other developer tools available through MetaMask Developer, explains the firm. MetaMask launched pool staking

for its popular self-custodial wallet earlier this year. The MetaMask Pooled Staking makes it easy to stake ETH while earning ETH rewards for contributing to the security of the blockchain.

The minimum required by the Ethereum protocol for staking is 32 ETH. For validators operated by Consensys, this was also the minimum amount up until now.
