Extension summary
The RemoteSign Extension can be used as a MetaMask Extension alternative along with an access key.
As the owner of an Ethereum wallet, you can use remote-sign.com to generate access keys, which grant limited access to your wallet, without ever handing over your private keys.
How it works:
- Connect to remote-sign.com with your MetaMask and generate one or more access keys, with each access key being connected to an Ethereum address.
- Hand over the access key(s) to your friend who should get (limited) access to the Ethereum address the access key belongs to.
- Your friend installs this extension and enters the access key.
- He can now use this extension to do stuff in a similar way as MetaMask would be used.
- The RemoteSign extension forwards requests to remote-sign.com, where you can answer the requests with your MetaMask to approve your friend's requests.
Note: The extension is under active development and may contain errors.
