IS YOURS TO EXPLORE
MetaMask Wallet Extension brings the tools for exploring web3 directly into your browser. Create a self-custody wallet, manage supported digital assets, and connect to decentralized applications with a familiar interface designed for everyday use. Whether you are discovering an onchain game, swapping tokens, collecting digital art, or checking a transaction, MetaMask helps put each step within reach.
You stay in control of your Secret Recovery Phrase and approvals; take time to review every request and never share your phrase with anyone. With support for multiple networks and a broad ecosystem of web3 services, the extension can make exploring more accessible without making the experience feel complicated. Start by installing from the official MetaMask website, then create or import a wallet and securely back up your recovery details.
Before connecting to a site, confirm its address and permissions; disconnecting an app does not revoke token approvals automatically. MetaMask is a gateway, not a custodian or investment adviser, and blockchain activity carries risks, including loss of funds. Learn at your own pace, use only trusted links, and keep your device updated. When you are ready, open your wallet, explore a connected app, and make each decision with confidence and care. Stay curious.
Always verify links and review transactions before approving.
GOOD QUESTIONS, BETTER ANSWERS
Before you
dive in.
A few helpful things to know before exploring web3.
?What is the MetaMask Wallet Extension?
MetaMask is a self-custody wallet extension that helps you manage supported digital assets and connect your browser to decentralized applications. You remain responsible for your wallet and its recovery details.
How do I install MetaMask safely?
Download the extension only through the official MetaMask website, metamask.io, and follow its link to your browser’s extension store. Check the publisher and website address carefully before installing.
What is a Secret Recovery Phrase?
It is the sensitive backup that can restore access to your wallet. Store it privately and offline where appropriate. Never share it with anyone, including someone claiming to be support; MetaMask support will never ask for it.
Does MetaMask hold or recover my funds?
MetaMask is a self-custody wallet, not a custodian or investment adviser. Your assets and transactions are managed through blockchain networks. Transactions can be irreversible, and losing recovery details may mean losing access.
Can I connect to any web3 site?
You can connect to many decentralized applications, but always verify a site’s address and review the permissions it requests. Disconnecting a site does not automatically revoke token approvals you previously granted.
