El fundador de MetaMask se deshace de Apple
El fundador de MetaMask, Dan Finlay, declaró que abandonará el ecosistema de Apple debido a la alto impuesto NFT que la empresa impuso a las transacciones criptográficas.
“I’m ready to dump the Apple ecosystem. The 30% tax is an abuse of monopoly. I’ve had some recent positive interactions with people at Google too. They’re actually engaging with this ecosystem. Apple also decided to not act on a security vulnerability I reported to them,” said Finlay.
