[Bug]: Adding new ERC20 token from JS is not working

[TheBojda]

Describe the bug

I tried to add a new ERC20 token using JavaScript. The process was completed successfully, and the popup displayed the text "Token added successfully. " However, I don't see the token in the wallet.

My JS code:

 const provider = await detectEthereumProvider()();
        if (provider && (provider as any).request) {
            try {
                await (provider as any).request({
                    method: 'wallet_watchAsset',
                    params: {
                        type: 'ERC20',
                        options: {
                            address: CONTRACT_ADDRESS,
                            symbol: 'CQM',
                            decimals: 18,
                            image: '' // Optionally add a token image URL
                        }
                    }
                });
            } catch (e: unknown) {
                const message = e instanceof Error ? e.message : String(e);
                alert('Failed to add CQM token: ' + message);
            }
        } else {
            alert('MetaMask is not detected.');
        }

Expected behavior

The token should be shown in the asset list.
