Metamask is a cryptocurrency wallet that can be downloaded on the following platforms:

For PC: Chrome and Firefox
For Mobile: iOS and Android

For this tutorial, we will be using Chrome which can be downloaded here. The process for the other platforms are very similar.

PART 1: INSTALLING METAMASK

This part is for those who are new to Metamask. If you already have a Metamask wallet, you can proceed to the next part of this tutorial.

Step 1: Go to https://metamask.io/download.html
Step 2: Select Chrome
Step 3: Click Install Metamask for Chrome

Step 4: Follow the instructions in Importing or Creating a Metamask Wallet

IMPORTANT:
Anyone with your seed phrase will be able to access your funds on that wallet so never give it out to anyone. Also, without the seed phrase, you will not be able to recover the funds you have stored in your wallet if your device gets lost or damaged. We recommend that you write down this backup seed phrase or secret recovery phrase and keep it in a safe place.

That’s it. You now have a Metamask wallet!

By default, it is set to the Ethereum Network. If you want to use it for the KuCoin Community Chain (KCC), please proceed to the next part.

PART 2: SETTING UP KCC-MAINNET ON YOUR METAMASK

Metamask is on Ethereum by default

As shown in the picture, your Metamask wallet is set to the Ethereum network by default. Connecting to the KCC-Mainnet is very easy. When KuSwap goes live on KCC-Mainnet, you can simply go to https://kuswap.finance and look for the Connect button and it would automatically add the KCC-Mainnet network for you.

If you would like to add it manually, follow these steps.

Step 1: Click on the network drop down menu at the top of the wallet.
Step 2: Select Custom RPC
Step 3: Fill in the blanks with the following information

Chain Name: KCC-MAINNET
Chain ID: 321
Symbol: KCS
RPC URL: https://rpc-mainnet.kcc.network
Explorer URL: https://explorer.kcc.io/en

Step 4: Click Save.

Step 5: At the top, the network will reflect the changes, indicating that you are now on the KCC-Mainnet network.

Congratulations! You have just manually added the KCC-MAINNET Network to your Metamask wallet. You would now be able to interact with DApps on the KuCoin Community Chain.
