Install Metamask

Once you've downloaded one of the two browsers, it's time to add the Metamask extension.

Metamask is a wallet that allows you to manage your financial assets in cryptocurrencies, tokens and NFTs across different blockchains.

To download and install the extension:

If you visit metamask.io, you can follow the download process intuitively.

In some cases, even if you are using Brave, the button may prompt you to download the extension for Chrome: this is perfectly normal as they share much of their codebase.

While some browsers offer a built-in wallet extension, Metamask is essential to access the marketplace to buy land and the management tool to configure it.

Download and Confirm

Clicking the Download button will download the extension and take you to the Chrome Web Store page. Click the 'Add' button on the right.

You will see a warning pop-up, then click the 'Add extension' button again to confirm your choice.

If this doesn't happen, check your Downloads folder; the installation file may be there (it will have a .crx extension: just open it and follow the installation instructions).
