Key Points:
Coinbase Wallet is a standalone non-custodial wallet provided by cryptocurrency exchange Coinbase that is distinct from the wallet capabilities found in its main exchange app.
The new functionality comes just a week after seasoned NFT user and Moonbirds creator Kevin Rose was phished for over $1 million in NFTs after signing a rogue transaction, something that this type of new feature is intended to assist prevent.
As Coincu reported, at 1:49 p.m. EST, CirrusNFT, a Twitter user, first spotted the outflow. At 2:02 p.m., Rose personally acknowledged the breach on Twitter. The NFT developer and co-founder of PROOF (the company behind Moonbirds) tweeted the information and urged people not to purchase any Squiggles NFTs until they could report them as stolen.
According to a blog post, the transaction preview will display to the user how their balance is projected to change as a result of the transaction they are signing.
Similarly, the wallet will alert the user if a decentralized application (dapp) requests permission to withdraw tokens, including NFTs, from the user’s wallet. Both features are restricted to the Ethereum and Polygon networks.
Coinbase Wallet now supports more Ledger hardware wallets and allows for more wallet customisation, allowing users to establish different sets of wallets that work across multiple blockchains. It plans to make it easy to view and cancel token rights in the coming weeks (where a user allows an application to interact with tokens in their wallet).
