The non-profit Maker foundation has revealed it’s moving its trademarks for Maker and Dai to a new, independent foundation based in Denmark called the Dai Foundation. Its goal is to safeguard assets that “underline the MakerDAO system” and shouldn’t end up in the hands of a single, for-profit entity.
Google has restored the mobile app for MetaMask, a popular Ethereum wallet and decentralized application browser. It banned the wallet last week citing its policy against cryptocurrency mining apps, even though MetaMask offers no cryptocurrency mining services.
While Google reverted its mistake when it came to MetaMask, it has seemingly been unable to protect its users from another Ethereum wallet, this time in the form of a Google Chrome browser extension. The wallet, called ‘Shitcoin Wallet’, was caught injecting malicious code to scan open windows and steal users’ data.
