Today, it was warned that the popular Ethereum-based wallet MetaMask has been removed from the Apple App Store. However, the issue has been resolved and Apple users can download MetaMask again. 🚀
On October 14, many users complained that they could not find the MetaMask app on the Apple App Store. The team behind the wallet later confirmed the situation and said that "it is not related to anything malicious and our team is working to resolve this as soon as possible." ⚠️
During this period when fake MetaMask applications increased and many accounts were exploited, Mark Cuban, the billionaire owner of the Dallas Mavericks, was also among the victims. The MetaMask team warned users not to trust suspicious applications.
MetaMask, if you come across fake apps on the App Store, please report them immediately. Our top priority is to resolve this quickly and protect users from fraudulent apps.
Later, the MetaMask team released an update stating that it was back on the App Store. CryptoPotato has confirmed that the app has appeared and is available for download at the time of writing. 🎉
