How To Set Up A Compatible Wallet To Receive Your MCT Tokens
- To receive your purchased MCT Tokens, you will need a compatible wallet capable of storing them — for example, an EVM-compatible wallet.
- As MetaCert operates on the Binance Smart Chain (BEP20) network, your chosen wallet must support adding the Binance Smart Chain and allow the addition of a custom contract address for MCT.
- One of the key advantages of using the Binance Smart Chain (BEP20) is the wide range of wallet options available.
- As an EVM-compatible blockchain, Binance Smart Chain can execute Ethereum-based smart contracts and supports the same development tools, programming languages (such as Solidity), and protocols as Ethereum, effectively “speaking the same language” as Ethereum.
- There are numerous wallet options available, including desktop, mobile, and browser extension solutions, as well as hardware wallets for enhanced security.
- For guidance, I have written 3 in depth Medium articles on wallet setup — one covering MetaMask (available as both a browser extension and mobile app), one for mobile use called the CoolWallet and one which is a browser extension offered by Crypto.com.
A little information on a Hardware Wallet, using a Nano Ledger as an example:
- This is a physical device, like a Flash Drive that you insert into your PC.
- When sending tokens/coins etc, you physically have to press buttons on the device to confirm the information you see on the device LED screen matches where you are wanting to send the assets, among other information regarding the transaction.
- Even if you have logged onto a phishing site scammers will never be able to get your assets when you have to physically press the buttons on the device.
- However, I have heard of people being scammed on say a Ledger as scammers have managed to change the information on the Ledger LED screen, e.g. it's a different address to where you want the assets to be sent, this is why you also carefully read the information you see on the device to make sure it all matches up, never just take it for granted that the information is the same just because you are using a ledger.
