MetaMask introduces beta portfolio viewer to enhance Web3 experience

MetaMask browser extension and mobile apps users can access the new dApp by going to portfolio.metamask.io and connecting to the wallet.

ConsenSys, the company that created the well-known Web 3 wallet MetaMask, revealed on September 28 that it was introducing a beta portfolio viewer that would allow users to aggregate their assets across several networks and accounts.

The company providing software for Ethereum went on to say that the portfolio dApp was a demand from users. It will face competition from comparable products like FTX, which acquired the well-known Blockfolio cryptocurrency portfolio software in 2020.

When evaluating whether it would wire up wallets kept on centralized exchanges like Binance, it was not evident or obvious that it would. However, the portfolio enables them to link and monitor other accounts and wallets, like cold wallets.

Users are able to add their friends’ Ethereum Name Service (ENS) addresses and wallets thanks to the dapp’s full support for them. The portfolio will connect to the following networks with its multi-chain functionality: Ethereum, Optimism, BNB Smart Chain, Polygon, Fantom, Abritrum, and Avalanche.

There is a special non-fungible token (NFT) section where users can “get a holistic view” of their digital art collection.  The features of Portfolio View and NFT View are not the final ones to be implemented, according to ConsenSys, which also provided a link for users to submit feature suggestions.

New offerings for MetaMask Institutional customers

Also on September 28, ConsenSys disclosed that MetaMask Institutional customers would now have access to top custodial service providers Cobo, Floating Point Group, Liminal, and Propine. Global head of growth and partnerships for MMI Liz Mathew commented on the new offering by stating:

“The latest onboarding brings the total number of custodians supported by MetaMask Institutional to eleven, further bolstering our position as the premier institutional wallet for Web3.”

Notably, MetaMask integrated new crypto custodians in April this year, in an effort to expand institutional offering, as TheCoinRise reported.
