1. Visit the official MetaMask website at https://metamask.io and click "Download" to install the extension for Chrome.

  2. In the Chrome Web Store, click "Add to Chrome" and then "Add Extension" to install MetaMask.

  3. After installation, the MetaMask icon will appear in your Chrome toolbar. Click it to open the MetaMask interface.

  4. If this is your first time using MetaMask, click "Get Started" and follow the prompts to create a new wallet. This will involve setting a password and securely backing up your 12-word recovery phrase.

  5. Once your wallet is set up, you can start using MetaMask to interact with Ethereum-based decentralized applications (dApps) directly from your browser.

  6. To manage your MetaMask extension, you can access the extension settings by clicking the puzzle piece icon in your toolbar and selecting "Manage Extensions".

  7. Within the extension settings, you can adjust privacy and security options like phishing detection, token autodetect, and custom RPC providers.

The key is to always download MetaMask from the official website and never share your 12-word recovery phrase with anyone, as this gives full access to your wallet. By following these steps, you can get set up with the powerful MetaMask browser extension securely.ShareRewriteBitmart
