How to Add Sonic to MetaMask

Can I Add Sonic to MetaMask?

Currently, users can only add the Sonic testnet to MetaMask, as the mainnet is not yet live. Sonic is Fantom’s upcoming high-throughput chain, designed to replace the Opera network. To add the testnet, open MetaMask, go to "Add Network" in settings, and input the testnet RPC details provided by Fantom. Once the mainnet launches, users will be able to add that as well.
