MetaMask has announced the expansion of its Security Alerts feature, now set to become the default transaction alert system for Extension and Mobile users across various blockchain networks. Developed in collaboration with\u00a0Blockaid<\/a>, the enhancement introduces an added layer of privacy by ensuring that transactions remain confidential without being shared with third parties while providing essential scam alerts.<\/p>\n Initially launched in October 2023 as an \u201cExperimental<\/a>\u201d feature for Extension users on the Ethereum network, these security alerts have paved the way for their rollout across additional networks. MetaMask anticipates this integration will protect assets valued at hundreds of millions of dollars annually.<\/p>\n MetaMask encourages users to update their Extension and Mobile applications to the latest versions (v11.10 and v7.16, respectively) to benefit from this expanded security coverage. The supported networks now include Ethereum, Linea, BNB Chain, Polygon, Arbitrum,\u00a0Optimism<\/a>, and Avalanche. MetaMask encourages users to help them improve this feature by\u00a0reporting false positives<\/a>.<\/p>\nExpanding Security Across Networks<\/h2>\n
