🌐Setting Up MetaMask with Avalanche

You will also need to set up MetaMask with Avalanche.

Detailed Guide

Step 1: Create a Wallet or Import an Existing Wallet

Firstly, you will need to create or import an existing Ethereum Wallet. If you do not have an existing Ethereum Wallet, select "Create a Wallet". Remember to always keep your Mnemonic and password to yourself and make sure to write this down on a piece of paper and store it safely. This wallet will be used to conduct your transactions on Avalanche.

Step 2: Connect MetaMask with Avalanche

Open MetaMask and click on the network selector at the top. The default selection will typically be "Ethereum Mainnet". Scroll down and click "Custom RPC".

In the window that pops up, type in the following details and click "Save".

Type	Description
Network Name	Avalanche Mainnet
New RPC URL	https://api.avax.network/ext/bc/C/rpc
ChainID	0xa86a
Symbol	AVAX
Explorer	https://cchain.explorer.avax.network/

Avalanche will now be one of your network options.

Now that your MetaMask is connected to the Avalanche Mainnet, you can move on to Funding Your MetaMask on Avalanche.
