To add Harmony network to MetaMask wallet, you must first download this wallet to your computer and then follow 3 easy-to-install steps. You can easily use MeteMask on different browsers such as Firefox, Opera, Chrome and Brave.
MetaMask is a wallet that runs on your browser and allows you to transact on the Ethereum blockchain. The platform, which currently has more than 30 million active users, is the preferred wallet for digital assets developed on the ETH network, as well as EVM-based assets. In addition, you can easily obtain MetaMask wallet from iOS and Android markets. One of the reasons the platform is so popular is that it supports a wide variety of different blockchains thanks to its “Add Network” feature. So users can add support for over 50 different blockchain mainnets and testnets.
Note: MetaMask only supports EVM-based entities. So to interact with non-EVM chains like Solana, Terra, Waves or Near, you need to get a separate local wallet.
