Clear, practical explanations of how wallets, keys and transactions work, and how to keep them safe. Written for people, not protocols.
Long-form, step-by-step guides, written in plain language and checked against primary sources.
How to keep a MetaMask wallet secure in everyday use, from installing the genuine app to reviewing approvals and recognising impersonation, explained step by step for readers who are not engineers.
Security fundamentals, one habit at a time.
How self-custody wallets store keys, what a recovery phrase really is, and how to back one up so that it survives a lost phone but not a curious stranger.
What you are agreeing to when you sign a message, connect a site or approve a token, and how to review and undo those decisions later.
How look-alike websites, copied apps and fake support accounts operate, and the quiet habits that make them easy to recognise.
Three of the commitments behind every guide on Metaportable.
Metaportable is not affiliated with any wallet, exchange, protocol or brand, and nobody outside the editorial team sees a guide before it is published.
Guides are built from official documentation, security research and documented incidents, and they link to the sources we used.
Software changes. Every guide carries its publication and last-updated dates, and we revisit it whenever the product it describes changes.
