Welcome the Enjin Snap. Enjin Snap is a new tool that brings Enjin Blockchain straight into the browsers of over 30M monthly MetaMask users. Extending MetaMask’s core functionality, Enjin Snap enables users of the popular cryptocurrency wallet browser extension MetaMask to easily send, receive and manage their Enjin Coin (ENJ) straight from their favorite browser extensions.
A Snap is an add-on to MetaMask that allows functionality beyond its native Ethereum support. By installing Enjin Snap to their MetaMask, users can manage and hold Enjin Coin, interact with all Enjin Blockchain networks, and sign transactions directly through their MetaMask browser extension.
Here are two straightforward ways to set up the Enjin Snap:
When you’re connecting with any of Enjin’s services, such as NFT.io, Enjin Platform, or Enjin Console, simply select the option “MetaMask”, and if you have the MetaMask browser extension installed in your browser, you’ll be simply prompted to allow the installation of the Enjin Snap to your MetaMask. Once approved, the Snap will install automatically, and your MetaMask will be Enjin ready.
You may also install the Enjin Snap manually and directly through the MetaMask Snaps Store at snaps.metamask.io/snap/npm/enjin-io/snap/. From there, you can easily add it to your MetaMask in just a few clicks.
Once installed, the Enjin Snap becomes a seamless part of your MetaMask wallet.
Once set up, the Enjin Snap provides the following functionality for interacting with the Enjin Blockchain:
The Snap works across both the Enjin Mainnet (Enjin Relaychain and Enjin Matrixchain) and the Enjin Testnet (Canary Relaychain and Canary Matrixchain).
The Enjin Snap derives its functionality directly from your existing MetaMask setup. Here’s how:

.Essentially, your Enjin Snap account is tied to your MetaMask wallet, meaning you don’t need to manage a separate wallet or recovery phrase.
If you’re a more advanced user and want to import your Enjin Snap account into another wallet (such as the Enjin Wallet), you can use the derived keys to do so. This flexibility ensures that your accounts are interoperable across different applications.
ℹ️ Quick Security Note
Your MetaMask seed phrase is the foundation of your Enjin Snap account. If you lose access to your MetaMask wallet, you can recover your Enjin Snap account by importing the same seed phrase into MetaMask.
To avoid losing access, always store your recovery phrase securely in an offline location. Without it, you won’t be able to recover your wallet or your ENJ tokens.
The Enjin Snap is a practical tool for anyone involved in the Enjin ecosystem. It simplifies account management, provides seamless access to the Enjin Blockchain, and allows you to manage your ENJ tokens directly within MetaMask.
If you use MetaMask regularly and want to interact with the Enjin Blockchain, the Enjin Snap is a straightforward solution to streamline your workflow.
