How to Add BSC to MetaMask? The Complete Guide

You can download the MetaMask crypto wallet app and browser extension from the official website. This extension primarily interacts with the Ethereum mainnet, but it can also interact with other networks like Binance Smart Chain (BSC). However, Binance Smart Chain (BSC) is not included as a default network on MetaMask; however, you can quickly and easily connect your browser wallet to the Binance Smart Chain (BSC) network in just a few minutes with the "CoinCarp EVM Chain List".

How to Install MetaMask?

1. Visit the official MetaMask website to download and install the application on Chrome, iOS, or Android. To ensure you get the genuine version, ensure you are on the authentic MetaMask website before downloading.

2. After downloading and installing the MetaMask extension, click [Get Started] on the welcome page to begin.

3. If you're new to wallets, click the [Create a Wallet] button. If you already have a wallet, you can import it by using your seed phrase with the [Import wallet] option.

4. MetaMask will give you the option to assist in improving the extension by providing anonymous usage data. Whether you choose to opt-in or not will not impact your MetaMask experience.

5. To create a secure password for your wallet, use a combination of at least 8 letters, numbers, and symbols. Avoid using anything that could be easily guessed, such as your name, date of birth, or any other personal information. Store your password in a safe place, separate from your seed phrase, as this will help protect your wallet from unauthorized access.

6. Verify the accuracy of your seed phrase by selecting the words at the bottom of the screen in the correct order. When you are finished, press [Confirm].

7. Once you have finished configuring your MetaMask wallet, click [All Done] to begin using it.

8. To pin MetaMask to your Chrome toolbar for easy access, click the puzzle icon on the browser. MetaMask is only connected to Ethereum by default, but you can learn how to connect it to Binance Smart Chain (BSC) in the following section.
