To create an account on The Sandbox, you need to have a cryptocurrency wallet.
Put simply, a cryptocurrency wallet is a piece of software which is used to store and manage your cryptocurrencies and tokens, such as $SAND, LAND, GEMs, ETH (Ethereum) and BTC (Bitcoin). They also allow you to interact with blockchain technologies.
1. First of all, you will need to set up your MetaMask account and install the MetaMask extension on your browser. You can create a MetaMask account and download the extension from their official website here: https://metamask.io/. This handy video will help you with setting up your MetaMask wallet:
2. Once you have MetaMask set up, click here to go to The Sandbox’s official website and then click the Sign-In button on the top-right.
3. Click the Web 3 (MetaMask) option, shown here:
You should get a prompt from the MetaMask browser extension asking you to sign a signature request that will allow MetaMask to log you into The Sandbox. Click the Sign button on this prompt.
4. Now you will be asked to enter an email address and a username. Do this then click the button labelled Create Account. And then that’s it, you are done.
There you have it — you now own a MetaMask cryptocurrency wallet which will enable you to access The Sandbox, make purchases and store your crypto tokens like $SAND and LAND.
