Is This Web3’s Version of ‘The App Store’?

TL;DR

  • Yesterday, the MetaMask team introduced ‘Snaps,’ which allow users to add features and functionality from independent developers to their MetaMask.

  • You can already access more than 30 Snaps via the ​MetaMask Snaps Directory​, that have each had their security audited by both the MetaMask team and third parties.

  • Can you imagine what the iPhone experience would be like if it didn’t have the App Store? Potential now exists within the MetaMask ecosystem, which as of right now, is the most popular Web3 ​wallet​ out there.

Want to build in ​Web3​, but don’t know how to grow users?

Now, you don’t have to! You can just borrow them from ​MetaMask​.

Yesterday, the MetaMask team introduced ‘Snaps,’ which allow users to add features and functionality from independent developers to their MetaMask.

(Kind of like how the App Store allows independent developers to build apps for the iPhone).

This is a big deal!

Can you imagine what the iPhone experience would be like if it didn’t have the App Store?

No Instagram, YouTube, TikTok, Uber, DoorDash...just a calculator, iMessage and email.

Giving independent developers access to the iPhone platform meant builders could create solutions to a range of problems that Apple either wouldn’t, or couldn’t, have tackled (let alone imagined)!

Similar potential now exists within the MetaMask ecosystem, which as of right now, is the most popular Web3 ​wallet​ out there.

Huh? What bear market?
