Wallet: "Allow this app to spend your ?" [what?]

[tredondo]

Description

Tried to use dYdX. After connecting, you must Enable USDC. That transaction generates a prompt that seems to be missing the currency name.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Go to https://trade.dydx.exchange/trade/BTC-USD
2. Connect Brave's wallet
3. Click "Deposit" then "Enable USDC"

Actual result:

Brave version (brave://version info)

I've seen this before as well but assumed it was a user error. Had discussed with @Douglashdaniel as well regarding this

This issue happens when the token that you are allowing to spend is not set as a visible asset in your portfolio.

If the token that you are allowing to spend is not set as one of your visible tokens we do not have a record of it being one of your assets nor do we know how much of that asset you own that you can allow to be spent.

Will likely need to be resolved by a backend API to allow us to get that information from Etherscan, etc... first before front end can resolve this issue.

Looks like the API needed is in the works #19279 🙂

@Douglashdaniel if the info is in our token registry and not a visible asset I think this can be supported.
