Meta Description: Explore MetaMask Wallet®, the most trusted Ethereum & Web3 wallet. Learn how MetaMask simplifies crypto management, NFT access, and DeFi participation securely through your browser or mobile device.
MetaMask Wallet is a non-custodial, open-source crypto wallet that connects users directly to the Ethereum blockchain and Web3 ecosystem. Launched by ConsenSys in 2016, MetaMask enables users to securely store, send, and receive Ethereum (ETH), ERC-20 tokens, and NFTs, while seamlessly interacting with decentralized applications (dApps) from within their browser or mobile device.
Whether you're an NFT collector, DeFi investor, or simply new to crypto, MetaMask makes blockchain accessible and user-friendly.
✅ User-Friendly Interface
MetaMask offers a clean and intuitive UI that suits both beginners and advanced users. The browser extension integrates directly with platforms like Uniswap, OpenSea, and Aave, enabling one-click access to decentralized tools.
🔐 Non-Custodial Security
Only you control your private keys. MetaMask is a non-custodial wallet, meaning your crypto assets are not stored by a third party. You are in full control — with a backup seed phrase ensuring safety even if your device is lost.
🌍 Seamless Web3 Access
MetaMask acts as a bridge to the decentralized web. Interact with DeFi platforms, NFT marketplaces, DAOs, and blockchain games without creating new accounts for each platform.
📱 Available on Browser & Mobile
Install MetaMask as a browser extension (Chrome, Firefox, Brave, Edge) or as a mobile app (iOS & Android). Sync your wallet across devices and access Web3 on the go.
🔑 Private Key Management
MetaMask encrypts your wallet with a password and stores it locally. You receive a 12-word Secret Recovery Phrase during setup, which serves as the ultimate backup for your wallet.
🪙 Multi-Asset Support
Supports Ethereum and all Ethereum-compatible tokens (ERC-20, ERC-721). You can also add custom tokens manually.
💸 Token Swaps Within the Wallet
MetaMask includes a built-in swap feature, aggregating data from multiple DEXs (like Uniswap and 1inch) to give you the best price and lowest gas fees when exchanging tokens.
🌐 Custom Networks & Testnets
Easily add other EVM-compatible blockchains such as Binance Smart Chain (BSC), Polygon (MATIC), Avalanche, Arbitrum, and Optimism for broader dApp compatibility.
🛡️ Security Alerts
MetaMask now includes security features like phishing alerts and scam protection tools, reducing the risk of fraudulent transactions.
