PANews reported on August 26th that MetaMask officially announced the launch of a social login feature to simplify the process of creating and managing MetaMask wallets. Users can create, back up, and restore wallets using either a Google or Apple account. No single entity, not even MetaMask, can access all the information needed to retrieve a user's Secret Recovery Phrase (SRP), maintaining the self-custody nature of its wallets. Only the user's social credentials, combined with their unique password, can ultimately unlock the SRP on the local device.
