How to create MetaMask wallet in Google Chrome

MetaMask Wallet is a personal software wallet that can store, send, and deposit cryptocurrencies, and is one of the most widely used wallets in the crypto world.

The MetaMask crypto wallet is operated through a browser extension or a mobile app. Although this wallet was primarily developed for Ethereum or Ethereum based tokens, it can be used for tokens based on the Polygon Mainnet or Binance Smart Chain as well.

Now, as the most important step, MetaMask presents a secret backup phrase and asks the user to remember it. You should click the lock icon to reveal the secret backup phrase, and save and remember this phrase safely in your own way. Keep in mind that this secret backup phrase is necessary when importing a wallet after reinstalling the browser, when importing the same wallet to mobile after installing a browser-based wallet, etc.
