Developers, companies, and individuals can enjoy new benefits beyond MetaMask’s native features with the Hedera Wallet Snap plugin, built by Tuum Technologies January 16, 2024 — MetaMask Snaps, an innovative plugin that provides access to MetaMask’s 30 million monthly active users, is now available on Hedera, the open-source, leaderless proof-of-stake network powering the next generation of the web. Built by Tuum Technologies, a leading developer of open-source decentralized identity solutions, Snaps extends the functionality of MetaMask by enabling developers to create custom plugins. The newly launched Hedera Wallet Snap enhances the overall user experience while streamlining processes for developers, who can now seamlessly integrate Hedera’s functionality into MetaMask-based applications. Kiran Pachhai, Co-founder of Tuum Technologies, said: “The Hedera Wallet Snap is a sophisticated plugin that empowers developers to enhance the capabilities of their applications beyond the native features of MetaMask. This expansion of MetaMask’s functionality marks a significant step forward in integrating decentralized technologies into mainstream applications.” The HBAR Foundation, which empowers entrepreneurs to build economies on the Hedera network, has a shared commitment with Tuum Technologies to integrate decentralized technologies into everyday life. The integration of Hedera into an EVM, multichain wallet opens up numerous doors for users, developers, and companies to interact with the Hedera network directly through MetaMask applications. It paves the way for user experience efficiencies, enabling anyone to send HBAR to both Hedera and EVM addresses, as well as retrieve their account information and easily view their token balances. Shayne Higdon, Co-founder and CEO of The HBAR Foundation, said: “Pivotal as it is, this is just a first step for the Hedera Wallet Snap, with more features and functionality due to be announced later. Today’s news is an important advancement for Hedera’s interoperability, bringing Hedera’s unrivaled scalability, speed, and energy efficiency to more users and developers across the globe. We’re looking forward to seeing the impact this has on the existing Hedera community, and how it contributes to the growth of the Hedera ecosystem among new audiences of enterprises, developers, and individual users.” The newly announced Hedera Wallet Snap eliminates the need for Hedera JSON-RPC Relay, allowing Hedera Wallet Snap users to retrieve account information from both the Hedera Consensus Node and the Hedera Mirror Node. Hedera Wallet Snap can be installed from MetaMask Open Beta and it is available on GitHub as a JavaScript NPM package, providing access to advanced native features of Hedera.
