MetaMask is a browser plugin (or mobile app) that you can use to manage your crypto wallet and seamlessly interact with smart contracts and dApps (decentralized applications). It's an open-source wallet that supports all kinds of Ethereum-based tokens like the PALM token.

• Popular - It is widely used so users only need one plugin to access a wide range of dApps.
• Open source - helps keep the code remain safe due to the "many eyes" principle.
• Saves space - Users don’t have to download the whole blockchain as it sends requests to nodes outside of the user’s computer
• Integrated - dApps are designed to work with it, so it becomes much easier to send PALM in and out or interact with dApps.

• Third-party - MetaMask holds private keys within the user’s browser. This is less safe than a hardware or paper wallet. It is a reasonable compromise for the ease-of-use.
• External nodes - Instead of being a full node, it relies on external nodes which on occasion have downtime that can cause MetaMask to stop working.
