Save yourself the time looking up the Chain ID, etc... for your favorite new chain. Instead, head over to Chainlist and you can have it done for you. We live in a world of automation and sometimes that's a good thing. This is one of those cases. Check it out. It even has a dark mode for people like me that think everything looks better in dark mode.

Yes, I realize this is very easy to do. However, I can appreciate the simplicity for users that may now be comfortable adding a Custom RPC. Maybe for newbies? Maybe for lazy fuck like me? Who knows? I jus know that whoever cerated this service is doing something great for people that want to easily explore different chains.

Save yourself a few minutes and use Chainlist to add chains to Metamask.

You're welcome.

peace.
