MetaMask Review

MetaMask has become synonymous with Web3, boasting over 30 million monthly active users. Originally built for Ethereum, it fully supports Ethereum Classic through its custom network feature.

**Security Considerations** As a browser extension wallet, MetaMask stores encrypted keys locally. While convenient, this means your security depends on your browser and computer security. Always use a strong password and consider a hardware wallet for significant holdings.

**ETC Setup** Adding ETC to MetaMask requires manual network configuration: 1. Open Settings → Networks → Add Network 2. Enter ETC mainnet details: - Network Name: Ethereum Classic - RPC URL: https://etc.rivet.link - Chain ID: 61 - Symbol: ETC - Explorer: https://etc.blockscout.com

**dApp Experience** MetaMask excels at dApp connectivity. Connect to ETC DeFi protocols, NFT marketplaces, and other applications with a single click. Transaction previews show you exactly what you're signing.

**Mobile App** MetaMask mobile provides the same functionality as the browser extension. Sync between devices using your recovery phrase or import accounts individually.

**Hardware Wallet Integration** For enhanced security, connect a Trezor or Ledger device to MetaMask. This gives you hardware wallet security with MetaMask's excellent dApp compatibility.
