How to add Evmos (EVMOS) to MetaMask Wallet

Evmos is a decentralized proof of stake blockchain in the Cosmos ecosystem. It aims to bring Ethereum dApps to the Cosmos ecosystem, and allow developers to create their own EVM-compatible blockchains by forking Evmos.

In this guide, we'd walk you through the steps needed to add Evmos network to MetaMask wallet.

What is Evmos & MetaMask?

Evmos is a highly scalable blockchain running on a proof-of-stake (PoS) consensus mechanism, built with the Cosmos software development kit (SDK) on the Tendermint Core Byzantine Fault Tolerance consensus methodology. EVMOS, the native token on Evmos, is used for paying transaction fees, staking to secure the network, and taking part in Evmos’ governance.

MetaMask on the other hand is one of the most widely-used Wallets. You can send, receive, and manage tokens and cryptocurrencies from Ethereum, Binance Smart Chain, and other blockchains. With MetaMask, you can store NFTs, crypto art, and other crypto collectibles. Its browser extension is compatible with Chrome, Firefox, Edge, and Brave.

Step 1: Install MetaMask Extension on Chrome

This step is only for those who don't have MetaMask installed in their browser. For the purpose of this guide, we are using Chrome browser as an example but the principle steps are same when installing MetaMask in other browsers.

You can install the MetaMask using the official website or go directly to google chrome web store

Check the number of downloads to make ensure the legitimate MetaMask is being installed as there are many fake MetaMask wallets.

Click the Add to Chrome button & you should have your wallet installed.

Once you’ve installed, MetaMask will appear as an extension and can easily be accessed through “Settings” on Google Chrome where you can pin the wallet extension for ease of access.

If you are new to MetaMask, create a wallet after installing MetaMask which will require you to choose a password and store a recovery phrase (Make sure to store your recovery phrase in a safe place).

If you already have a wallet created then log in using your MetaMask password.

In order to log in, click on the MetaMask Chrome extension, enter your password, and click on “Unlock”.

Step 3: Add Evmos network on MetaMask Wallet

Our final step is to add the Evmos network on MetaMask wallet after you're logged in. Open the MetaMask wallet on a new browser tab by simply clicking on the MetaMask logo on the top right extension area.

Click the three dots in the top-right and select the “Expand view”.

By clicking on “Expand view” you will be able to interact with your MetaMask wallet interface on a larger screen.

In order to add a new chain network or switch between different blockchain networks, you'll need to click on the network tab which by default will show "Ethereum Mainnet" on the top right-hand corner.

Click on Add Network in order to add Evmos network to MetaMask Wallet.

Now you should be able to provide all the required Evmos network details.

This includes the network name, new RPC URL, chain ID, currency symbol, and block explorer URL. Simply copy and paste the required chain info from below.
