FACT  
As we are having issues about marketing and about our product (SDN) understanding (otherwise market should be already aware about its value), we need to make it easy for a “normal” user to transfer token Substrate \<\> Metamask; just to make more attractive SDN use case.

PROPOSAL  
We need to create a interface (WebPage) connected with both (Polkadot.js and Metamask extensions) in order to make it possibile automatically to transfer SDN from SS58 to H160 and viceversa.  
Now it needs to use a web page for converting addresses and doing all manually.  
Yesterday I tried H160 \> SS58 transfer and it’s too complicated for a normal user.  
Our developers can create for sure an user interface in which all this procedures can be done by a sigle click (authorization on polkadot.js or metamask)

TARGET  
Improving usability and user friendly interface in order to enhance the users’ usage , so the volumes, so the entire protocol value; overall now that apps are starting to run (like Standard Protocol)

There is already a proposal similar to this. I like this and support your proposal.

A discussion already started here. Can you move the topic there instead?

This is a quick win…  
No way to lose time anymore…  
Who might not agree with ?

So it’s only a matter of developers working on it.  
Technically it’s something possibile to develop .
