Description
### What is this about?
Hi. I was using the extension fine of Nightly (Firefox) as I have for 2+ years, but today it stopped. It just spins and spins. I can see the transaction on the extension but I can't interact with it to authorise. This was just the transfer of an NFT through Opensea.
