Phantom Introduces 'Wallet Watcher' for ETH, BTC; Backpack Wallet Adds SPL-20 Support Amid Privacy Concerns

Phantom, a prominent cryptocurrency wallet service, has unveiled a new feature named 'Wallet Watcher,' which allows users to add any wallet address as a view-only account. This functionality aims to enable users to monitor the activities of friends, traders, and industry leaders within the crypto space, try out Phantom for ETH and BTC, and discover what top collectors are accumulating. Concurrently, Backpack wallet has introduced support for SPL-20s, enabling the conversion of these assets into tokens or NFTs directly within the wallet. Amidst privacy concerns raised by the community, Armani Ferrante suggested a workaround for maintaining anonymity by utilizing Backpack Exchange's sub accounts for depositing and withdrawing to new wallet addresses without linking them.
