What’s new? On March 31, the Algorand Foundation will stop supporting the browser-based crypto wallet AlgoSigner. Users were recommended to switch to other services, having previously found out more about the basic rules of wallet security. The project’s team did not explain the reasons for this decision.
What else is known? Released in August 2020, AlgoSigner was the first wallet for decentralized applications (DApps) in the Algorand ecosystem. The wallet’s first release allowed the project to usher in the era of Web 3.0.
The announcement states that the decision to discontinue support was made in light of the evolving nature of the Algorand ecosystem and user experience priorities. The team concluded by thanking PureStake for working together to develop the wallet.
