Metamask Extension Bug Activity Contract Deployments Are Displayed as Contract Interaction

Metamask Extension Bug Activity Contract Deployments Are Displayed as Contract Interaction Symptom Users of the Metamask extension on the Ethereum (ETH) ecosystem may notice that contract deployments are incorrectly displayed as contract interactions within the activity section of the extension. Technical Root Cause This error occurs due to a bug in the Metamask extension's activity logging mechanism, where it fails to differentiate between contract deployment transactions and regular contract interaction transactions, leading to the misclassification of contract deployments. Manual Overrides To temporarily resolve this issue, users can try the following manual overrides: Clearing the Metamask extension's cache and storage Disabling and reenabling the extension Using the following JSONRPC command to filter transactions: json { "jsonrpc": "2.0", "method": "eth_getTransactionByHash", "params": ["transaction_hash"], "id": 1 } Consider utilizing an external Ethereum console for more advanced transaction filtering and analysis. Prerequisites Metamask extension installed and configured Ethereum wallet with transactions history Basic understanding of Ethereum JSONRPC commands
