To integrate Near protocol with your MetaMask wallet, the first step is to ensure you have the correct network configuration. MetaMask allows you to add custom networks, which is essential for connecting to the Near blockchain. Navigate to your metamask extension and click on the network dropdown at the top. Select “Add network” and input the following details:
| Field | Value |
|---|---|
| network Name | Near Protocol |
| New RPC URL | https://rpc.mainnet.near.org |
| Chain ID | near |
| Currency Symbol | NEAR |
| Block explorer URL | https://explorer.near.org |
Once you have entered the required fields,click “save”. This process links your MetaMask wallet to the Near Protocol network. To complete the setup,you may need to transfer some NEAR tokens into your MetaMask wallet. Ensure you grab your wallet address and use a compatible exchange or platform to deposit NEAR directly. After the transaction confirms,you’ll be fully ready to interact with Near Protocol through your MetaMask account with all its rich functionalities and liquidity opportunities.
