HOW TO ADD THE BSC MAINNET TO METAMASK

Published: March 1st 2021


OVERVIEW

By default, Metamask supports the Ethereum mainnet and some testnets. In order
to use Metamask with dapps running on the Binance Smart Chain (BSC), we need to
add this network manually to MetaMask. This article provides instructions to do
so.


INSTRUCTIONS

Adding a New Network

 * Open Metamask
 * Click on your user icon on the top right
 * Click "Settings"
 * Click "Networks"
 * Click "Add Network" at the bottom

BSC Network Details

 * Network Name: BSC Mainnet
 * New RPC URL: https://bsc-dataseed.binance.org/
 * Chain ID: 56 (0x38 if that does not work)
 * Currency Symbol: BNB
 * Block Explorer URL: https://bscscan.com/

Click "Save" and you are done. Now when you want to use a dapp on BSC, make sure
the "BSC Mainnet" network is selected on the network dropdown on the top part of
the main view of Metamask.
