What this page covers
This guide explains how to import $EDM into MetaMask so your balance is visible in the wallet UI. The page covers the four canonical contract details (address, name, symbol, decimals) and the six-step import process. The procedure is identical on the MetaMask browser extension (Chrome, Firefox, Brave) and the mobile app (iOS, Android), with minor UI placement differences.
Important: import is purely a display step. Your $EDM is already allocated to your wallet address at the moment of presale purchase, regardless of whether the token appears in MetaMask. Importing tells MetaMask to query the contract for your balance and display it; it does not move or modify tokens in any way. There is no transaction or gas fee for importing.
Why the contract address must be copied exactly
The contract address is case-sensitive and uniquely identifies the token. Ethereum uses EIP-55 checksum addresses that encode case information for error detection. Pasting from this page guarantees you have the exact correct address; typing manually risks substituting a single character that results in either a wrong token or no token at all.
Cross-verify before importing. The canonical $EDM contract address can be verified through multiple sources: the contract is published on Etherscan with full transaction history; the contract bytecode is verified and matches the published source; the audits from Cyberscope and Coinsult reference this exact address. If you have any doubt, search for the contract on Etherscan and cross-check the address against what is listed on this page before pasting into MetaMask.
Launch the MetaMask browser extension (Chrome, Firefox, Brave) or the MetaMask mobile app (iOS, Android). Unlock with your password or biometric authentication. Make sure you are using the same wallet address that holds your $EDM allocation; otherwise the token will not display a balance even after import.
At the top of the MetaMask interface, click the network dropdown and select Ethereum Mainnet (chain ID 1). The $EDM contract lives on Ethereum mainnet; the token will not appear on any other network. If you do not see Ethereum Mainnet in the dropdown, your version of MetaMask may have it hidden — click "Add a network" and select it from the popular networks list.
On the main MetaMask screen, scroll to the bottom of the tokens list and click "Import tokens" (extension) or tap "Import tokens" in the menu (mobile). This opens the custom token import dialog. Make sure the "Custom Token" tab is selected, not the "Search" tab.
In the "Token contract address" field, paste the canonical $EDM contract address: 0xF6fb036CA17CEeb345Fe39dFb132d1D80aB45029. Copy it from this page rather than typing it manually; one character of difference results in a different token. MetaMask will validate the address format and check it against Ethereum mainnet.
After pasting the address, MetaMask auto-fills the Token Symbol field with "EDM" and the Decimals field with "18". Verify these match exactly: Symbol = EDM (three letters), Decimals = 18 (standard ERC-20). The Token Name will display as "Edma" or "Edma (EDM)". If any value differs from this page, do not proceed — close the dialog and re-verify the contract address.
Click "Import" (extension) or "Add Token" (mobile). $EDM now appears in your tokens list with the balance reflecting your full $EDM allocation. Note: if you purchased during the presale, the balance may show as locked until your vesting unlock dates; check edma.app/vesting-page for the full schedule. Transferability begins after each quarterly unlock.
Troubleshooting common issues
If $EDM does not appear after import: verify you are connected to the same wallet address that holds your allocation. MetaMask supports multiple accounts within a single wallet; the token import only applies to the currently selected account. Switch accounts in the MetaMask UI and check each one. The token import persists across accounts, but the balance only displays for the account that holds tokens.
If the balance shows as zero despite having purchased: the presale vesting schedule applies a 12-month lock followed by quarterly 20% unlocks. During the lock period, MetaMask may display zero because the tokens are held in a separate vesting contract rather than directly in your wallet. Check the dashboard at edma.app/vesting-page to see your total allocation, current locked balance, and next unlock date.
If MetaMask shows a warning about the contract: a yellow or red warning typically indicates the network is wrong, the contract is not verified, or MetaMask's spam-detection heuristics fired. If the contract address matches what is listed on this page and you are on Ethereum mainnet, the warning is a false positive and you can safely proceed. If the address differs, do not import.
