Adding a custom token to MetaMask allows users to access and manage digital assets that are not officially supported by the wallet. Here's a step-by-step guide:

1. Open Coinbase Wallet

• Launch the Coinbase Wallet app on your mobile device or visit the web version at https://wallet.coinbase.com/.

2. Sign In and Click "Add Token" Button

• Sign in to your Coinbase Wallet account.
• On the main dashboard, tap the "Add Token" button.

3. Choose "Custom Token" Tab

• In the pop-up window, select the "Custom Token" tab.

4. Enter Token Details

• For Ethereum-based tokens:

  • Enter the Token Contract Address (ERC-20 or ERC-777).
  • Enter the Token Symbol.
  • Specify the Token Decimal Places (usually 18 for most tokens).
  • Click "Import Token."

• For other types of custom tokens:

  • Select the appropriate network from the dropdown menu (e.g., Polygon, BSC).
  • Repeat steps as above.

5. Confirm Token Addition

• A confirmation message will appear. Review the token details and tap "Import Token" to add it to your wallet.

6. Success Message

• Once the token is added, you will see a success message. The custom token will now be displayed in your Coinbase Wallet balance.

Tips:

• Ensure you have entered the correct token contract address to avoid adding the wrong token.
• If the token is not immediately visible, refresh your Coinbase Wallet or restart the app.
• Coinbase Wallet supports a limited number of custom tokens. Check the support list before adding any tokens.
• Be cautious of phishing attempts or scams involving adding custom tokens. Always verify the source and ensure the token details are correct.
