Recent discussions surrounding MetaMask, a widely used cryptocurrency wallet, have raised concerns regarding its user experience and security features. Users have criticized the wallet for its poor design, which has reportedly led to significant financial losses for many. One user highlighted that MetaMask's confusing signature flows and default token permissions model have contributed to hundreds of millions in lost user funds. Additionally, there are calls for accountability within MetaMask's management, with suggestions that the current team should be replaced due to ongoing issues. The broader implications of these design flaws pose a threat to the self-custody principle in cryptocurrency, as many users struggle to navigate the wallet effectively. Critics argue that the persistent problems with MetaMask hinder the onboarding of new users into the crypto space, raising questions about the wallet's future viability.

If MetaMask even smelled like a tradfi org., the ppl in charge should face criminal charges from wallet design and putting user funds at risk But we all want a self-custody world So bad actors like MetaMask get away with complete bullshit Drop the token and just leave tbh
