How to Multichain - Binance Smart Chain (BSC)

We have recently added BSC to our DEX Router - you can start swapping your favorite tokens on BSC using our DEX Router here.

You will need to install MetaMask and connect to BSC Network in order to start trading.

Please read our tutorial on getting started with MetaMask here.

Configuring the MetaMask Wallet to Use Binance Smart Chain

You might notice straight away that we’re still dealing with an Ethereum wallet. At best, this won’t work with Binance Smart Chain DApps. At worst, you could lose funds by sending them to addresses you can’t actually use. Let’s change that. We want to access the Settings to point the wallet towards Binance Smart Chain nodes.

On the Settings page, we want to locate the Networks menu.

We want to click Add Network in the top-right corner to manually add the Binance Smart Chain one – it doesn’t come packaged with MetaMask. It’s important to note that there are two networks we can use here: the testnet or the mainnet. Below are the parameters to fill in for each.

Mainnet (This is the one you are probably looking for)

Network Name: Smart Chain

New RPC URL: https://bsc-dataseed.binance.org/

ChainID: 56

Symbol: BNB

Block Explorer URL: https://bscscan.com

Click Save.

Please keep in mind that you will need BNB to start transacting on this network.

The easiest way to acquire $BNB is from the exchange, Binance itself.
