Metamask: Newbie question: how can I send BNB to my ETH wallet?

Sending BNB from ETH to BSC with Metamask

As a Metamask user, you are probably familiar with the process of sending cryptocurrency from one wallet to another. However, Metamask becomes more and more difficult for beginners. In this article, we will tell you how to send BNB (Binance Coin) from your mainnet ETH (Ethereum) wallet to your BSC (Binance Smart Chain) wallet using Metamask.

Why is this necessary?

If you have a BSC wallet and want to transfer funds from your Ethereum wallet to the main network, you need to use Binance Bridge. A bridge provides uninterrupted data transfer between two networks, but has some limitations. If you do not send BNB (Binance Smart Chain’s proprietary token) to cover the transaction fees, Metamask will report insufficient funds.

Step by Step Guide:

  • Install and Configure Metamask: Make sure Metamask is installed on your device. Download the latest version from the official website.
  • Link your ETH wallet: Open Metamask and link your Ethereum wallet to the main network (e.g. MetaMask). This can be done by clicking “Wallet” and then “Add Wallet”.
  • Select your ETH wallet type: Select your Ethereum wallet type (eg MetaMask, MyEtherWallet, etc.).
  • Find your BSC wallet: In Metamask, go to Wallets and find your BSC wallet.
  • Link your BSC wallet

    : Select your BSC wallet from the list of available wallets.

  • Add BNB: Go to “Settings” or “Preferences” in Metamask and click “Advanced Settings”. Scroll down to the “Transaction Fee” section and set the BNB transfer fee (e.g. 0.001 ETH).
  • Send BNB to your BSC wallet: Click the Send button next to your BSC wallet. Enter the amount of BNB you want to send and confirm the transfer.
