PANews reported on April 23 that MetaMask co-founder Dan Finlay announced his departure from Consensys after more than a decade at the company, citing exhaustion and the need to spend time with his family. Finlay also expressed his excitement about the recently launched advanced permissions feature and his anticipation for external use. According to MetaMask's official documentation, the advanced permissions feature, based on the ERC-7715 standard, allows DApps and AI agents to request granular permissions from MetaMask users to execute transactions on their behalf.
