  1. Open MetaMask: Open your MetaMask wallet extension or mobile app. 

  2. Access the Wallet: Make sure you're on the wallet screen where you can see your existing asset.

  3.  Click on "Add Token": Look for the "Add Token" button. In some versions, it might be labelled as "Add Token - Custom Token". 

  4. Custom Token Details: Token Contract Address: You need to input the contract address of USDT. You can find this on a blockchain explorer or by searching online. Make sure it's the correct contract address for the specific network you're using (e.g., Ethereum, Binance Smart Chain). Token Symbol: USDT Decimals of Precision: USDT typically has 6 decimal places, but verify this to ensure accuracy. 

  5. Add Token: After inputting the details, click "Next" or "Add Token" to finalise the process. 

  6. Confirmation: MetaMask will confirm that you want to add the token. Confirm, and the USDT token should now appear in your MetaMask wallet alongside your other assets. 

  7. Viewing USDT Balance: Once added, you should be able to see your USDT balance within MetaMask.

    Remember to double-check the contract address to ensure you're adding the correct token, as there are many tokens with similar names. Also, be aware of any network fees associated with adding custom tokens.
