The EpicChain MetaMask Snap represents a significant advancement in integrating blockchain technology with mainstream digital wallet solutions. This Snap provides MetaMask users with a direct and secure method to interact with the EpicChain blockchain, enabling a range of functionalities that enhance the user experience and expand the capabilities of MetaMask. With this Snap, users can seamlessly manage EpicChain assets, perform transactions, and engage with smart contracts—all from within the familiar MetaMask interface.
EpicChain, known for its robust and scalable blockchain solutions, has created this Snap to bridge the gap between its advanced blockchain infrastructure and the widespread adoption of MetaMask as a digital wallet. This integration not only simplifies the process of accessing EpicChain’s features but also enhances security and usability for everyday blockchain interactions.
Important: The EpicChain MetaMask Snap is currently in beta, which means it relies on MetaMask Flask—a special version of MetaMask designed for experimental and development purposes. During this beta phase, it is crucial to ensure that no other versions of MetaMask are installed on your browser. Conflicting versions could interfere with the Snap’s functionality and lead to unexpected issues. For optimal performance, disable MetaMask and any other wallets that might override the window.ethereum object.

Start by installing the necessary dependencies to set up your development environment. Execute the following command to install all required packages:
yarnTo build the wallet adapter needed for development purposes, use the following command:
yarn workspace epicchain-snap-wallet-adapter build:devThis command prepares the wallet adapter for integration with MetaMask, enabling the necessary functionality for interacting with the EpicChain blockchain.
To initiate the Snap development server, run:
yarn workspace epicchain-snap startThis command will start the Snap development server, which will be available at:
- Snap Server: http://localhost:8080/
This server hosts the Snap’s backend services and provides an environment for testing and debugging.
For developing the decentralized application (Dapp) site that interacts with the EpicChain Snap, use:
