CRYPTO PRIVACY ALERT: Disconnect MetaMask Wallet

If you use MetaMask wallet, I'm going to share with you a quick and simple security tip that will maintain your privacy and protect you from being the target of a phishing scam. Every time you connect to a DeFi website, you will give that website access to view your cryptocurrency, not to move it or control it, but to view it. And for the most part, it's not such a big deal. If you're connected to a website such as UniSwap or a trusted site, not a huge deal.

However, if you've been using MetaMask for quite some time, you'll start to notice that you're connected to sites that you may have never even heard of, potentially scam websites that can view your cryptocurrency. And it's very easy to disconnect from the sites. And I do want to mention once you connect to a site, it remains connected unless you disconnect.

So you go to your MetaMask wallet and then in the upper right hand corner you will see the three dots. You're going to click on these three dots. Go down to connected sites and you'll see all the sites you're connected to. And if you're connected to maybe Uni Swap and etc, you don't have to remove them. But if you go through, you may see a site you don't even recognize and you want to remove it so that website can no longer view your crypto. It might be a potential scam website that is looking for people to target. You'll simply go to the trash can and disconnect.

And it's not a big deal because if you ever want to go back to the site, you simply go to the site and connect again. So there's nothing to lose here at the moment. I do not believe there is a way to remove or disconnect from all of them at the same time you do it one by one. I do hope that this is something in MetaMask updates. Maybe there is a way, if you know a way to disconnect from all sites as one, please put it in the comments down below so this maintains your privacy.

Remember, if you give them access, they can't move the crypto, but they can see it. And if they can see your crypto and they see your target, then they will go after you with a phishing scam, which is the worst thing that could happen when it comes to a MetaMask wallet. You can lose all of your crypto. And if you want to learn how to protect yourself from a MetaMask phishing scam, go ahead and read my previous article.
