    One option for adding a new network to Metamask is by manually adding a custom network. To do this, you need to gather the necessary information about the network, such as its name, RPC URL, chain ID, and symbol. Once you have this information, you can open Metamask, go to the Networks tab, and click on 'Add Network'. From there, you can enter the details of the new network and save it. This will allow you to connect to the new network and access the supported digital currencies on that network.

    Another option is to use a network provider that is already supported by Metamask. Metamask supports a range of popular network providers, such as Infura and Alchemy. By using one of these providers, you can easily connect to their network and access the supported digital currencies. To use a network provider, you need to obtain an API key from the provider and configure Metamask to use that provider. This option is more convenient as it eliminates the need to manually add network details.

    If you are using BYDFi, a digital currency exchange, you can also add a new network to Metamask through their platform. BYDFi supports multiple networks and allows you to easily connect your Metamask wallet to these networks. Simply go to the BYDFi platform, navigate to the Metamask integration section, and follow the instructions to add a new network. This option provides a seamless integration between BYDFi and Metamask, allowing you to access a wider range of supported digital currencies.
