Metamask compatibility completely broken

See original GitHub issue

When picking Injected Web3 provider, and that is the latest version of Metamask (e.g. 6.6.1) sending transactions fails with

Gas estimation failed

Gas estimation errored with the following message (see below). The transaction execution will likely fail. Do you want to force sending? gas required exceeds allowance (7006834) or always failing transaction

Filling in gas value manually in the UI doesn’t help.

@yann300 If you can help with this, that would be great.

I think that this is the problem:

   if (network.name !== 'Main') {
     return continueTxExecution(null)
   }
