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 The 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. Manual Overrides To temporarily resolve the 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 fetch the correct transaction type: json { "jsonrpc": "2.0", "method": "eth_getTransactionByHash", "params": ["transaction_hash"], "id": 1 } Consider utilizing an external Ethereum blockchain explorer for more accurate transaction type identification. Prerequisites Metamask extension installed and configured Ethereum blockchain connection established Basic understanding of JSONRPC commands and transaction types
