[Bug/UX]: Dashboard shows `USD` and confusing warning instead of balance when on private network #23391

Open legobeat opened 7 months ago

legobeat commented 7 months ago

Describe the bug

When on private network using a local RPC node, it would make sense to show the native token balance. Instead, the most prominently visible item is USD. There is also a non-dismissable, non-relevant and confusing warning about the token name.

Inspecting the extension and looking in the network tab, we can see the eth_getBalance calls get sent and return successfully.

Expected behavior

Relevant information is show on home screen.

Screenshots/Recordings

right after unlocking: 1-dashboard

when clicking the red triangle: 2-scarywarning

clicking through to "Network details", this is what was previously manually configured: 3-networkdetails

clicking through to individual account details does not show balance either. 4-account1

Steps to reproduce

  1. Configure MetaMask with a custom RPC node for a testnet (like Sepolia or Holesky)
  2. Disable internet connectivity
  3. Unlock wallet and navigate to home screen
  4. Try to inspect account details

Same problem here with BNB test tokens on the official BNB Chain testnet ! No balance shown, just a warning sign. Also shows "USD" on the top, although Primary currency "BNB" was choosen. I think the "security & protection initiative" is a bit over the top :facepalm:

Not stale. Is anyone looking at this?
