Advantages of MetaMask
😻 Popular - It is commonly used, so users only need one plugin to access a
wide range of dapps.
🕐 Simple - Instead of managing private keys, users just need to remember a
list of words, and transactions are signed on their behalf.
💽 Saves space - Users don’t have to download the Ethereum blockchain, as
MetaMask sends requests to nodes outside of the user’s computer.
🔗 Integrated - Dapps are designed to work with MetaMask, so it becomes
much easier to send Ether in and out.
