MetaMask 0.6.1 / Authentication

Link, replace, and unlink a wallet

Manage the wallet associated with an existing account through explicit signed actions.

While signed in, open Account Security or use the Terminal’s Link with account action. The action appears only when the user is signed in, a wallet is connected, and the current wallet is not already linked.

Linking requires a new server challenge and wallet signature. Replacing a different wallet requires separate confirmation and a new proof; stale return state cannot carry an address, message, proof, or signature.

Unlinking removes wallet login only. It does not change the WordPress password or delete the account. wallet-link and wallet-unlink expose corresponding terminal actions when allowed.

After replacement or unlinking, sign out and confirm the previous wallet can no longer log in while password and recovery methods still work.
