Brussels, Belgium – October 21, 2024 – NGRAVE, the creator of ZERO, the coldest hardware wallet, has announced its integration with MetaMask, enabling millions of users to engage with decentralized applications, DeFi, and the broader crypto ecosystem with enhanced security. This collaboration combines NGRAVE ZERO’s 100% offline, air-gapped protection with MetaMask’s extensive suite of Web3 features, providing a seamless and more secure Web3 experience.
With this integration, users can effortlessly sign transactions, stake, swap, buy, sell crypto, and purchase NFTs using their NGRAVE ZERO wallet accounts. After syncing their ZERO accounts with MetaMask, users can generate transactions in MetaMask, which are then converted into QR codes. By scanning these codes with ZERO, users can securely verify and sign transactions offline. The signed transaction is then returned to MetaMask through a one-way QR code, ensuring that private keys remain completely protected from any online threats.
"This integration offers the best of both worlds – full access to Web3 and DeFi with the comfort of knowing that your private keys are generated and stored fully offline hence protected from any online attack vectors," said Ruben Merre, NGRAVE’s CEO and Co-founder. "We believe serious investors deserve serious protection, and that’s exactly what NGRAVE ZERO provides. Together with MetaMask, we are taking security in the crypto space to an unprecedented level."
"We are excited to partner with NGRAVE to provide our users with another highly secure option for managing their crypto and engaging with the Web3 ecosystem,” said MetaMask Group Product Manager Alex Jupiter. “MetaMask is all about giving users control over their digital assets, and this integration further empowers them to do so in a way that combines the best of both security and convenience."
To ensure compatibility between the ZERO hardware and MetaMask, NGRAVE co-authored the ERC-4527 QR Code transmission protocol. The integration also enables NGRAVE ZERO to support all ERC20 tokens and EVM chains supported by MetaMask, bringing a wide array of assets into this enhanced security ecosystem. More information on the integration is available on NGRAVE’s website.
