A recent issue with the MetaMask crypto wallet extension for Chrome has been causing problems for users. The bug makes the extension write a huge amount of data to a computer's solid state drive every day. This can quickly fill up your storage space and even slow down your computer.
The developers have confirmed this bug and are working on a fix. Until it is resolved, users may want to keep an eye on their storage and consider using a different browser or disabling the extension if they notice any problems.
