SlowMist founder Inventory summaryCosine stated that he has concentrated on Scam Sniffer and Revoke.cash as well as Pocket Universe, Wallet Guard and Fire.

The relevant browsers and plug-ins can prompt the risk by opening a phishing webpage. This prevents any subsequent steps of fraudulent signatures, which can make it difficult to block the risk. There is always a time delay between virus detection (a professional technology to prevent anti-virus software detection, killing, and identifying the virus) and prevention. How to reduce the time it takes to detect and prevent viruses, increase the number of samples, and make identifications more precise is how anti-virus software degrees of power. You can Google it yourself. Although MetaMask has a market share currently at 80%, it is difficult to analyze the data. All products, articles, reminders, and reminders are secondary. Only by being aware of your security, you can ensure that you are able to stand in a place where you don’t lose coins or NFTs. Personal safety awareness is key. @tmel0211 opinion. The technical logic behind self-custodial wallets like MetaMask allows users to safely keep their local private keys, process transaction signatures, provide gateways for connecting to major blockchain networks, and facilitate smart contract interactions, such as DeFi. It is theoretically possible to embed any plug in service that optimizes the user experience without affecting wallet transfer interaction. Anti-phishing address screening can only be regarded as one of the rigid requirements.However, the functions of the current mainstream wallet products are very simple, and they are very restrained in service optimization. These are the reasons:Mobile terminal interaction must be more concise than browser plug ins because of the client information payload.
Decentralized consensus, phishing sites, blacklist libraries, and other issues can affect them. need central operation and maintenance support to generate consensus
The tendency to commercialization has affected the service mezzanine. Although it can optimize the experience, commercialization is difficult.
Currently, most of the major browser security plugins on the market are provided by third-party security companies. The experience is good but not enough. They all dream of becoming 360 security guards protecting web3 but the road is long. The plug-in that provides plugin services has potential security risks and trust consensus will take time to build.
Active users who trade in the Mint NFT or DEX environment have low security awareness. User habits must be improved.
The maintenance and operation challenges of phishing website updates and blacklist address databases are immense.
Our opinion is that the wallet narrative should be vertically segmented. Minimalist wallet for geeks;
Secure interactive anti-phishing wallet designed for beginners
Institutional wallet that can be customized
MPC wallet
Smart contract wallet, etc.
This does not mean that they will be competing with security plugin service providers. They complement each other at this stage. We believe that a great browser security plugin will eventually become a standard configuration such as a wallet.
