Metamask: Metamask cannot detect the token in the local network
As a developer of truffles and ganache, you probably know the configuration of Metamask to connect your Local Ethereum network. However, sometimes the token listed on Metamask may not be precise or up to date. In this article, we will explore why Metamask cannot detect a specific token in your local network and provide solutions to solve the problem.
The problem:
When you create an ERC20 token using truffle and ganache, Metamask lists the name, symbol and address of the token. However, if the token is not deployed on the Mainnet or is not listed on any other renowned exchange or wallet, it may not be reflected in your local network.
Why is it going?
There are several reasons why Metamask cannot detect a token in your local network:
- Deployment of tokens : If you use the truffle and the ganache to deploy your ERC20 token, make sure it is listed on the maint or another renowned exchange.
- Portfolio configuration : Make sure your wallet is properly configured to connect to your local network. This may mean configuring a new portfolio or adjusting the connection settings in Metamask.
- LAWER DATA : If you use personalized token implementation, make sure it sends specific data to Metamask.
Solutions:
To solve this problem, try the following:
- Check your Mainnet deployment: Check that your ERC20 token is deployed on the Mainnet and listed on renowned exchanges or wallets.
- Configure your portfolio correctly
: Make sure your wallet is configured to connect to your local network using a new portfolio or adjust the connection settings in Metamask.
- Check the data from token : Check your personalized token implementation to make sure it sends specific data to Metamask.
Additional advice:
- Make sure you use the latest version of the truffle and the ganache.
- Use the
--Network
indicator when connecting to your local network to specify the type of connection (for example,” local “or” main “).
- Consider using an implementation of a different portfolio or token which is more precise.
Conclusion:
Although it may be frustrating to have a metamask list which does not correspond to your local network, solutions are available. By correctly checking your deployment and properly configuring your wallet, you should be able to solve the problem. If the problem persists, consider checking your token data or using a different wallet or token implementation.
