- With the announcement that was made today, COTI has taken a significant step in bringing privacy and private tokens into the mainstream.
- Integration is accomplished via the use of a MetaMask Snap, which is a safe extension for MetaMask that instantly integrates new features into your wallet.
Through the use of MetaMask, you may now connect, see, send, receive, and manage private tokens for the very first time. This is an exciting development that we are thrilled to share with you.
Private tokens provide people and organizations with the privacy they need in order to function safely in Web3, which opens the door to a wide variety of applications that are used in the real world. In this context, we are not discussing anonymity; rather, we are discussing selective disclosure, permissioned privacy, the facilitation of private stablecoins and confidential payments, private decentralized finance strategies, voting on DAO governance, supply chain settlements, and identity credentials. Privacy may be used in a variety of contexts, including the protection of sensitive data, the prevention of front-running, and the possibility of selective disclosure for compliance purposes.
With the announcement that was made today, COTI has taken a significant step in bringing privacy and private tokens into the mainstream. This is accomplished by making them directly available to users and developers via Metamask, which is the wallet that is used the most in Web3.
Adding the Privacy Extension to MetaMask
Integration is accomplished via the use of a MetaMask Snap, which is a safe extension for MetaMask that instantly integrates new features into your wallet. When it comes to this particular scenario, the COTI Snap provides MetaMask with the capability to manage private transactions and token balances.
Connecting to the COTI Snap is easy:
Make sure you click the “Connect to MetaMask” button on the COTI Snap Integration Page, which can be found at metamask.coti.io.
When asked, provide your approval for the Snap installation, and then specify the wallet address you like to use in order to transfer and receive private tokens.

Your wallet is one of the first to transmit and receive private tokens, so congratulations on that great accomplishment!
Celebrate with a Giveaway!
In recognition of the significance of this event, we are holding a giveaway as a way to celebrate. All $COTI holders who have a balance that is more than 1000 $COTI will be eligible to get private ‘LOOT’ tokens. Using the brand new MetaMask Snap, the first one hundred wallets that send them back to the address 0x0bf9c15cbd9f0fac9fc6ab90f0603e89818489bd will each earn 500 COTI tokens.
Why Does this Matter?
With the launch that took place today, the groundwork has been laid for an on-chain privacy ecosystem that is not only ready for production but also accessible to users. It is now yours to enjoy:
- Interaction using privacy tokens that is totally seamless
- Improved user experience for wallets for developers that are building decentralized applications with a focus on privacy
- A Web3 experience that is more private and secure, without compromising its usefulness
As a result of this integration, privacy tokens are moved from the infrastructure layer to the hands of users and developers, which marks the beginning of a busy season for the COTI.
