Detailed Tutorial

Getting a Web3 wallet (Metamask)

DeSciWorld is a decentralized application (Dapp) running on top of the Ethereum blockchain. Sometimes we call these Dapps "Web3" and you will need a Web3 wallet to interact with them.

Step 1: Download Metamask from https://metamask.io/.

Step 2: Closely follow Metamask's instructions to safely set up, secure, and backup your private key phrase.Never input your seed phrase into anything. A legitimate Web3 protocol will never ask you for your seed phrase. Never give your seed phrase to someone else.

Step 3: Use your preferred fiat on-ramp exchange to fund your new Web3 wallet with Ether (ETH). You will need ETH in your wallet to pay for your transactions.
