FIO Handle Resolution is Now Supported by MetaMask

FIO Protocol is thrilled to announce a major milestone in its mission to make crypto more user-friendly. FIO has integrated its FIO Handle Resolution directly into MetaMask, the world’s leading self-custodial wallet. This partnership transforms the crypto experience for MetaMask’s 30+ million active users, making transactions as easy as sending an email.

With this integration, MetaMask users can now leverage the power of FIO Handles — human-readable, customizable names like “alice@wallet” that replace complex public addresses. This development aims to streamline digital transactions, enhance security, and reduce user errors, bridging the gap between traditional online experiences and the complexities of Web3.

Key Features of the Integration:

• Register FIO Handles directly within MetaMask, linking all wallet addresses to a simple, secure identity.
• Send and receive any supported cryptocurrency using a FIO Handle, eliminating the need to copy and paste long wallet addresses.
• Simplified transactions make crypto interactions in MetaMask as intuitive as sending an email.
