The Lamden Vault wallet is currently using Manifest V2.
Per
Google, “In January 2023, the use of Manifest V3 will become a prerequisite for the Featured badge. In June 2023, the Chrome Web Store will no longer allow Manifest V2 items to be published with visibility set to Public. Manifest V2 items with visibility set to Public at that time will have their visibility changed to Unlisted. In January 2024, following the expiry of the Manifest V2 enterprise policy, the Chrome Web Store will remove all remaining Manifest V2 items from the store.”
We are incredibly proud of what we’ve created with the Lamden Vault wallet. It has a ton of cool features, including an integrated development environment for developers to create smart contracts. And so we are exploring a number of options and welcome feedback from the community on how to continue to support it.
The wallet will require a not-insignificant rewrite of code to move from Manifest V2 to V3 and so we may need to look outside the core team for assistance and community developers who have the bandwidth (potentially via Gitcoin, DAO proposal, etc.).
This may also be a good time for us to take a step-back, get a birds-eye view, and have a broader discussion about compatibility - the current wallet is only compatible with the Chrome browser; should we put additional resources into it, or perhaps those dev resources might be better used for creating a browser-based or other universally-compatible wallet? This is another instance where we’re committed to working with the community to find a solution together and so welcome all feedback and ideas.
