# How To Connect Metamask Wallet To BSC Mainnet

MetaMask is extremely versatile and is compatible with most decentralized applications (dapps) and decentralized exchanges (DEXs), including the Binance Smart Chain (BSC). If you want to use MetaMask with the Binance Smart Chain, here’s an easy step-by-step guide to make it simple.

1. Open and log in to your MetaMask wallet.
