A kind of hyperaccelerated Greek tragedy was aired over the weekend involving Apple and the MetaMask crypto wallet.
Indeed, at some point on Saturday, news began to circulate, especially on X, that the MetaMask app was no longer available in the Apple Store.
The news was later confirmed on the wallet’s official profile.
FYI: We’re aware that MetaMask isn’t currently available for download on the App Store. This is and not related to anything malicious and our team is working hard to resolve it ASAP.

The official announcement also said that the team was working to be able to allow the app to return to the iPhone store as soon as possible, and in fact less than an hour later they announced its restoration.
As promised, we’re back on the apple app store. Sorry for the inconvenience! https://t.co/Xj0QSmPFxt

The removal affected only the Apple Store, and not Google Play.
