# 4.1 Installing a Web3 Wallet

To begin interacting with FreCx, a browser-based wallet such as MetaMask must be installed. MetaMask is widely adopted and fully compatible with EVM-based networks, including FreCx.

The installation process begins by navigating to the official MetaMask website. Users should ensure that they are accessing the correct URL to avoid malicious copies. From the download page, the appropriate browser extension (Chrome, Edge, or Firefox) can be selected and installed.

Once installed, the wallet becomes accessible through the browser toolbar, providing a persistent interface for blockchain interaction.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.frequencychain.org/4.-wallet-and-network-access/4.1-installing-a-web3-wallet.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
