How to connect an online wallet to Bitkub Chain (Metamask)

Modified on Sat, 18 Feb 2023 at 09:02 AM

Connecting your online wallet to Bitkub Chain is very important as you could lose your Bitkub Coin (KUB) if you transfer it to the wallet that does not support Bitkub Chain, and we are not responsible for any transactions made outside of Bitkub or Bitkub NEXT Wallet.

In this article, we will use Metamask as an example online wallet. Metamask is widely used by cryptocurrency traders. It supports all Ethereum-based tokens and you can easily connect it to decentralized applications and blockchain games right from your browser. Furthermore, Metamask can be configured to support blockchains other than Ethereum.

If you do not have Metamask installed yet, you can download it from https://metamask.io/download.html


Internet browsers that support Metamask extensions include Google Chrome, Firefox, and Brave, as well as IOS and Android for smartphone users. For more information on how to install and use Metamask, you can visit

How to configure Metamask for Bitkub Chain

You may notice that we are still using an Ethereum wallet. This will not work with Bitkub Chain DApps. In the worst-case scenario, you could lose your funds by sending them to addresses that are not valid.

 

1. Go to the Network tab in the top right corner.
