Metamask wallet has shown to be quite effective for decentralized finance (De-Fi) applications, especially for use on the Binance Smart Chain. This article will guide you by setting up a MetaMask wallet on the Binance Smart Chain (BSC).
Crypto Wallet
A cryptocurrency wallet is used as a storage method for your crypto tokens or coins. Wallets allow users to keep custody of their crypto securely without needing to use a centralized entity. Some people call their wallets their crypto bank, but they can maintain token possession. The lovely thing about wallets is that you control them with your 12 or 24-word keyphrase, allowing users to access their crypto anywhere using the given keyphrase. It is crucial that users safely maintain this keyphrase as it is necessary to access your crypto assets, and if lost or stolen, your crypto assets will become un-returnable.
