Consensys, the Ethereum software development company that built the MetaMask wallet, shared Tuesday that it is launching a “MetaMask Delegation Toolkit” aimed at making the user experience of blockchain applications seamless.
The news was announced at the Ethereum Community Conference (EthCC) in Brussels, Belgium, where the company plans to onboard developers to use its new product.
According to a press release shared with CoinDesk, the Delegation Toolkit will enable direct user onboarding without interacting with a traditional wallet, in addition to eliminating “user friction completely,” meaning no popups or confirmations when switching between a decentralized application and wallet .
In addition, Consensys said the toolkit should simplify the development of smart contracts and allow developers to allocate gas costs to others – with the aim of making it possible for developers to determine that certain individuals do not have to pay fees.
The Delegation Toolkit will be available for any chain compatible with the Ethereum Virtual Machine, “supported by a User Operation Bundler, including Arbitrum, Avalanche, Base, Linea, Optimism and Polygon,” according to Consensys.
“The MetaMask Delegation Toolkit will enable seamless onboarding of users to a new generation of dynamic and agile experiences that benefit from the kind of rich collaboration that can only come from a new paradigm of authorization and composability,” said Dan Finlay, co-founder of MetaMask , in the press release.
