3.9/ 5Skrumble Score
At a glance
MetaMask is the most-installed Ethereum wallet — browser extension + mobile, EVM-only. Built-in swap aggregator and bridge. The default key gating Web3 dApps for 30M+ users; fee on swap aggregator routes (~0.875%) is the catch.
Best for
EVM-chain users who interact with dApps daily and want one wallet that works on every Ethereum-compatible chain.
Skip if
You hold mostly Bitcoin or Solana — MetaMask is EVM-only.
