Metamask® Chrome Extension® | Getting started with MetaMask
MetaMask’s extension opens up access between your web browser and decentralized applications (dApps) built on Ethereum or Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) compatible networks. Imagine if you were in one country (like the internet) and wanted to visit another country (like the Ethereum blockchain) that speaks a completely different language and has different customs.
- MetaMask supports multiple Ethereum networks. Add custom networks (e.g., Binance Smart Chain, Polygon) by entering the network details in the MetaMask settings.
- Token Management:
- Add and manage custom tokens. If a token isn’t displayed, manually add it using its contract address.
- Hardware Wallet Integration:
- MetaMask supports integration with hardware wallets like Ledger and Trezor for added security.
