Getting Kucoin Community Chain on MetaMask
So to add the Kucoin Community Chain to MetaMask you have to open the MetaMask wallet (In case you don’t have MetaMask yet, please get it on this page). Once you have MetaMask installed, open it up on the full screen. So you will have the same screen as in our example here.
Now go to the top right of the screen where it says “Ethereum Mainnet” and click on the little arrow pointing down next to it. This opens the network’s tap where you can select all different types of EVM blockchains (Ethereum virtual machine) networks. Now here you can click on the Custom RPC to add a new custom EVM blockchain network of your choice. In this case, the Kucoin Community Chain.
Now Metamask will ask you for the data needed to connect the wallet to the Kucoin Community Chain. Please fill in the list below.
Network Name - KCC-MAINNET
New RPC URL - https://rpc-mainnet.kcc.network
Chain ID - 321
Symbol - KCS
Block Explorer URL - https://explorer.kcc.io/en
When you have done this, you can just click save. And now you have added the Kucoin Community Chain (KCC) to your MetaMask wallet. If you would like to switch between the EVM blockchains. Simply click on the Network button in the top right of the screen to select another blockchain. Because adding different types of EVM blockchains works the same, you can add any EVM blockchain in the same way. But instead of the list given in this blog, you replace that with another network’s ChainID, symbol, etc. We hope this blog post helped you to integrate a new EVM into your MetaMask crypto wallet.
