3. New account deletion feature:

In order to make it easier for users to manage wallet accounts, version 2.3 includes a new "Delete Accounts" to the archived account list page to facilitate the deletion of accounts that are determined to no longer be needed.

Note:

  • The deletion action is just a wallet deletion, the corresponding chain account information is still available on the chain
  • After deletion, interacting again with the Dapp that originally created this account will retrieve the deleted account again in your wallet
  • Currently the account type that can be deleted only supports normal types of accounts, and it is possible that other types of accounts may not support manual deletion
