Chain name & token ticker manual update on MetaMask

How did this upgrade affect my FX on MetaMask?

The f(x)Core to Pundi AIFX upgrade is complete on February 25th 2025. This upgrade includes the following two changes: 

• f(x)Core has upgraded to Pundi AIFX Omnilayer;
• f(x)Core’s native token FX was renamed to PUNDIAI, with a 100:1 supply reduction conducted. FX on Pundi AIFX Omnilayer (formerly f(x)Core) was automatically upgraded, including both staked and non-staked tokens. In other words, the FX assets on any formerly f(x)Core addresses have been conducted a 100:1 redenomination in an automated manner.  

MetaMask will NOT show the new chain name or the new token ticker, though the upgrade is live. On your MetaMask, you still see f(x)Core, instead of Pundi AIFX, and FX, instead of PUNDIAI, and find a surprisingly huge shrinkage on your “FX” assets. 

Why can’t MetaMask auto change to the new chain name & token ticker?

MetaMask's developer interface has implemented a length limit of 2-6 characters for the token symbol. FX's new name "PUNDIAI" has 7 characters, which exceeds the limit. As a result, we developers are unable to send the new names to MetaMask via their developer interface. To change the old names, users need to edit them manually on their MetaMask. 

How to change to the new chain name & token ticker?

Step one. Log into your MetaMask. Go to Select a network, find f(x)Core, and choose Edit.

Step two. Update the old names. 

Simply enter Pundi AIFX in Network name, and PUNDIAI in Currency symbol.

Step three. Click Save. 

Now your MetaMask shows the new names!
