After entering the details, click Save. The network will be added to your MetaMask instance.
- Switch to the HECO Mainnet
When you want to use a DeFi application that runs on HECO, you must switch your wallet to the newly created HECO network. Do this by clicking the dropdown arrow next to the network list and selecting HECO Mainnet.
At this point, MetaMask on your PC is successfully connected to the Huobi Eco‑Chain. You can now manage assets and interact with the appropriate DApps.

Global Market Context: When moving fiat funds to purchase HECO‑compatible assets, users typically rely on international payment methods such as USD transfers via SEPA (for Euro‑zone participants) or SWIFT (for worldwide transfers). U.S. residents should use Binance.US rather than the global Binance platform to remain compliant with local regulations.
