When you first install and activate MetaMask, it will only support ETH transactions.<\/p>\n

However, this doesn\u2019t mean you can use it to store and transact with other coins and tokens.<\/p>\n

If you want to use your MetaMask for SHIB (Shiba INU) token transactions, here are a few steps you need to follow.<\/p>\n

If you haven\u2019t set up MetaMask yet, check out this tutorial\u2019s first part<\/a> where I share a step-by-step guide to activating your MetaMask wallet.<\/em><\/p>\n

It\u2019s actually a very simple add any coin to MetaMask.<\/p>\n

Go to CoinMarketCap<\/a>.<\/p>\n

On CoinMarketCap, search for the crypto token\/coin you want to add to your MetaMask wallet. In this case, we will search for SHIB tokens.<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Once you find the coin\/token, you will notice the \u201ccontracts<\/strong>\u201d toggle. Below is an example for SHIB.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Under Contracts<\/strong>, you will notice the MetaMask mascot – The Fox.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Click on Add to MetaMask<\/strong> and follow the instructions in the pop-up screen, which would look like this:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Click on \u201cAdd Token\u201d.<\/strong><\/p>\n

That\u2019s it! – SHIB will now be available to transact in your MetaMask wallet.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Using the same method above, you can add multiple tokens to MetaMask pretty easily.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Keep in mind, since this is on Ehereum Mainnet, you can only transfer ECR20 tokens to this address.<\/p>\n

There will be times when you will see an option to use Binance Smart Chain or Solana<\/a> Blockchain. However, you won’t be able to add these coins to your MetaMask wallet unless you’ve added their respective networks as well.<\/p>\n

For instance, you need to add the Binance Smart Chain (BSC) network in order to use WRX (WazirX Token) in MetaMask. Here’s the link<\/a> to the only set of instructions you need to add BSC to MetaMask.<\/p>\n

MetaMask is a browser wallet, and it isn’t safe enough to store any significant amount of crypto funds. Check out the best crypto wallet in India here<\/a>.<\/p>\n
