Enter MetaMask
MetaMask has been a longstanding favorite among crypto enthusiasts and it continues to innovate with new features. One of its latest additions is MetaMask Snaps, a system that allows developers to create custom functionality for MetaMask, enhancing its capabilities and allowing for more tailored user experiences. Snaps can add new APIs, support different blockchain protocols, and introduce various features that make MetaMask even more versatile.
