Metamask and Trezor Transaction Issue: Binance Transaction Error
As a crypto enthusiast, you are not alone if you are having trouble connecting your Metamask wallet to your Binance account. A recent issue has resulted in many users experiencing issues with their transactions being displayed in their transaction history on Etherscan as well as in their Metamask and Trezor wallets.
Problem:
The issue lies in the way that MetaMask and Trezor wallets connect to the blockchain. When a user logs into their wallet, they send a request to the Binance API to retrieve the transaction history of the specific address they are trying to view. However, due to a recent Metamask update, this request is now sent through the Trezor wallet instead.
What you can do:
To resolve this issue, follow these steps:
- Check your Binance account settings: Make sure you have enabled the “Smart Contract” option on your Binance account. This setting allows the Metamask API to send requests directly to the blockchain.
- Restart MetaMask and Trezor: Sometimes, simply restarting both wallets can resolve connection issues.
- Update your Trezor wallet software
: Make sure you are running the latest version of your Trezor wallet software. You can check for updates on the official website.
- Disable and re-enable Metamask: On your Binance account settings page, disable the “Smart Contract” option and then re-enable it. This will allow MetaMask to reconnect to the blockchain.
Troubleshooting Tips:
- Check your transaction history: Make sure you are viewing your transactions on Etherscan for the correct address.
- Verify Wallet Connection: Check if Metamask is connected to your Binance account by checking the “Connected” status in MetaMask settings.
- Disable and re-enable transaction logging
: In your Binance account, go to Settings > Advanced > Transaction logging. Enable it, then disable it again.
Conclusion:
The issue of transactions showing as successful when they weren’t is a common problem for users switching from traditional wallets like MetaMask or Trezor to more modern alternatives like Binance. By following these troubleshooting steps and updating your wallet software, you should be able to resolve the issue and accurately display your transaction history.
