How do I add ERC-20 to MetaMask?

Watching a video tutorial on how to add ERC20 tokens to MetaMask can be quite helpful for those who are new to the cryptocurrency world. In the video by Decentralised Chain uploaded on December 9, 2018, the process is explained step by step.

The first thing you need to do is to have the token address, which is a unique code that identifies the ERC20 token you want to add. This address can be found on the website of the token issuer or on any reliable cryptocurrency information platform.

Once you have the token address, you need to copy it. Then, go to MetaMask, a popular Ethereum wallet browser extension, and click on the "Add Token" button. This will open a new window where you can paste the token address.

After pasting the address, MetaMask will automatically fetch the token information, including its symbol, name, and decimals. The decimals are important because they determine how many decimal places the token's price can have. For example, if a token has 18 decimals, its price can be displayed up to 18 decimal places.
