How to install and use Metamask?
Following are the key steps to use and instal Metamask:
Step 1：Install a Chrome Brower
If your computer doesn’t have Chrome installed, go to https://www.google.cn/chrome/ to download the chrome installation package. Do not worry, the website automatically identifies your operating system and provides a corresponding version to download.
Step 2：Installing MetaMask
Once downloaded, open your Chrome browser and go to MetaMask’s official website, or click this link.
Proceed to click the “Get Chrome EXTENSION” button to download MetaMask Chrome plugin. Do note, that the same methodology applies to the Firefox MetaMask browser plugin.
Click “Add to Chrome” and “Add Extension” in a new window.
After executing the above steps, you will be asked to choose a seed phase.
Afterwards, you will proceed to accept the terms of use as seen and you should see a splash screen.
Then, you will be asked to insert a password.
After creating your password, you’ll be prompted to get a list of 12 words(the seed phrase) that can be used to retrieve your account whenever you forget your password. Ensure to save these somewhere safe to avoid being hacked.
Confirm your 12 words (backup phrase) on the next screen by entering the chosen words in the same order saved previously. Then click ‘Confirm’ once done.
Subsequently, you can commence creating your Ethereum wallet using MetaMask to send and receive Ether, and also to run dApps.
Step 3: Using Metamask
To buy Ether or tokens, click on “Buy” and fund your account via Coinbase, binance or luno
To send Ether and ERC-20 tokens, click “Send”, enter the address you want to send to, and the amount. Then confirm the transaction by clicking “Accept”.
Remember that MetaMask doesn’t control any of your personal/private data on their servers. All your data is encrypted on your browser and protected through your MetaMask password. Therefore, if you lose your MetaMask account password, and need to restore MetaMask, you can only do that via your seed (backup) phrase.
