<p>Several screenshots published by the @thebookisclosed user on Twitter revealed new features coming to the Microsoft Edge browser. According to the screenshots Microsoft appears to be adding crypto and NFT wallet features into the browser.</p>

<p>Even though Microsoft wants to supercharge its browser to get ahead of Chrome, in my view this change will just clutter and ruin the Edge browser.</p>
<p>Microsoft said that the idea is to give Edge customers a non-custodial wall which means that crypto holders won&#8217;t have to use third-party add-ins to store private keys and passwords for their crypto holdings. This project is a foray into cryptocurrencies and NFTs which is just a step into a safe and effortless experience with Web3 technology.</p>
<p>The crypto wallet is secured with a password and recovery methods in the case of a forgotten password. After the setup, you&#8217;ll be able to see your crypto assets, price trends, etc.</p>
<p>The company doesn&#8217;t plan to provide crypto for testing, nor to reimburse lost cryptos in unfortunate events during the testing process. With that said, continue at your own risk.</p>
<p>Integrations with MoonPay and Coinbase that would allow users to buy and send cryptos to other people are also in the plans.</p>
