MetaMask, a built-in browser extension, is a popular cryptocurrency wallet. It works by connecting to the Ethereum blockchain network. MetaMask offers users extensive decentralized application (Dapp) integration, allowing them to interact with the Ethereum or polygon ecosystem without having to download all blockchain data to their devices.

Wallet application; Compatible with most common internet browsers such as Chrome, Firefox, Brave and Microsoft Edge. Besides offering the ability to store Ethereum’s native currency, ETH, MetaMask also supports tokens that comply with the ERC-20 and ERC-721 standards in the protocol.

In addition, there are multiple extensions (Trustwallet, Phantom, Coinbasewallet) where you can create wallets other than Metamask, and these extensions allow you to securely store your ERC-721 and ERC-20 tokens such as Metamask.

What Can I Do With Metamask ?

You can perform multiple transactions with your Metamask wallet. Apart from storing your ERC-721 and ERC-20 tokens, it also allows you to store your newly developed ERC-721A and ERC-1155 standard tokens. Hot wallets not only store your assets, but also allow you to transfer them and swap them to any asset you want between tokens. While performing these transactions, most importantly, you are nothing but your wallet address for the web on the other side, so your name, surname, age, where you live is just unknown to them.

Each user has a unique wallet address. You can share these wallet addresses with anyone who wants to send you an asset. Let’s take an example via EggsGame, when you enter our website and send a request, we only see which wallet this request came from on a wallet basis, and we send you a request via Metamask for approval. If you give your approval, the transaction takes place and your transaction will be realized.

Be careful which web and to whom you authorize access with your wallet address, allowing access to websites of false or fake projects can endanger your assets. Before you connect your wallet, make sure you get the web url from our official discord or our social media accounts !!!

Switch Network on Metamask

Changing a network via Metamask is a very easy process, but before you change your network, you need to add that network to your wallet. You can find our article on how to add the Polygon network to your wallet in our previous article. We can briefly summarize how to switch the network as an example assume you have a physical wallet in your pocket and have two rooms in front of you, rooms A and B, you can enter both rooms with this wallet and you can use the same wallet in both rooms, but before using your assets in the wallet, you must make those assets compatible with network and we call it a bridge. We can exemplify this by using the same wallet when traveling between countries, but converting currencies.
