While we'll focus on MetaMask, it's worth noting that there are several other wallets available, such as TrustWallet, Phantom, ExodusWallet, and more.

TL;DR

To create a MetaMask wallet, start by downloading the MetaMask app from your device's app store. Open the app, select "Create a new wallet," agree to the terms, set a password, and securely save your recovery phrase. Once done, you can add funds by transferring cryptocurrency like USDT from a centralised exchange (e.g., MEXC) to your MetaMask wallet. Always ensure the transfer network matches the token's blockchain (e.g., Ethereum for USDT). Keep your recovery phrase safe, research thoroughly before investing in crypto, and stay updated on market trends for smarter decisions.

Step 3: Adding Funds

Now that your wallet is ready, you can start to add funds to your MetaMaks Wallet. For this, you need to have some sort of currency that you want to exchange for another crypto.

Start by going to the CEX (Centralised Exchange) of your choice. For this guide, we'll be using MEXC, but you can use any other CEX.

• Go to the MEXC app and tap on the "Wallets" icon.

 

 

• Now, tap on the "Withdraw" button.

 

 

• Choose the USDT option.

 

 

• Select the "On-chain Withdrawal" method.

 

 

• Now open your MetaMask Wallet and tap on the “Import” option. 

 

 

• Search for USDT.

 

 

• Choose the "Tether USD" option.

Note: Make sure that the USDT is on the Ethereum blockchain.

 

 

• Now, tap on the "Next" button.

 

 

• After that, tap on the on the "Import" button.

 

 

• Once you see USDT on the home page, tap on it and tap the "Receive" icon.

 

 

• Here, tap on the "Copy address" option.

 

 

• Go back and paste the previously copied USDT address of your MetaMask Wallet.

 

 

• Select the network by which you want to send this USDT.

 

 

• Enter the amount of USDT you want to send and tap on the "Confirm" button.

 

 

Complete the authentication process for both Email and the Authenticator App. After the verification process is complete, the USDT will be transferred to your MetaMask Wallet.
