As a cryptocurrency enthusiast, I'm curious to know how one would incorporate Bitcoin into their Metamask wallet. Could you elaborate on the steps required to successfully add Bitcoin to Metamask? I understand Metamask is primarily designed for Ethereum and ERC-20 tokens, but I've heard whispers of potential workarounds. Could you guide me through the process, highlighting any potential pitfalls or caveats that I should be aware of? Additionally, is there a specific network or chain I should be utilizing for this process, or is it a straightforward addition regardless of the network? Your insight would be greatly appreciated.
