1. How to install MetaMask in the browser and configure the network

When you visit https://www.edgeswap.io/ for the first time, enter the application and click "Connect Wallet". At this point, you need to install the MetaMask wallet plugin, which is illustrated as follows.

Step 5: Agree or disagree on information collection.
Step 6: Create your password (you don't need a username!).
Step 7: You will be given a backup phrase, also known as the "private key", consisting of 12 words. It's best to write it in a safe place and never show or tell anyone these words. Anyone with this phrase can access and use your assets however they want. So never give it to anyone!
Step 8: Congratulations! Your wallet has been successfully created! Your account or wallet address will look like this: 0x0dE2aDe7dBd54cCAe8AdE66A8598C7BC78Cf3552 or in the image below: 0x0dE...3552. If you click on this number (hereinafter referred to as "Account 37"), your computer will automatically copy this address.
Step 9: If you already own cryptocurrency, you can send the assets to that address.
Step 10: Click on the "Ethereum Mainnet" above to switch to the network.
