Failed to add token name with 11+ characters in Metamask

[0xtzData]

Frontend: v1.21.0-alpha.1

1. Connect your Metamask wallet to the site
2. Go to https://eth-goerli.blockscout.com/tokens
3. Try to add VanityTRX.org token

Expected behavior: We should be able to import any token by Symbol
Actual behavior: We can't add token with 11+ characters in name/symbol

The MM docs says that maximum token symbol length is 11. But if I strip token symbol down to 11 characters, I get this error:

It appears to be impossible to add a token to MM with a symbol longer than 11 characters right now.

• create issue for MM
• hide 'add to Metamask' button for tokens with longer than 11 chars in its symbol

[tom2drum]

Here is an issue in the MM wallet repository that requests an increase in the allowed token symbol length: MetaMask/metamask-extension#9243. A pull request addressing this issue is currently in progress. It might be best to wait until it is resolved.

Terrible, why so
why metamask check token name fully not just the begining or best nothing ... if some flag is set to do not check names

The bug is on the Metamask side. We will continue to monitor situation, but closing the issue, since no action needed
