Find the “Add Blast Mainnet” Button: Scroll to the bottom of the Blastscan homepage. You should see a button, often with the MetaMask logo, labeled “Add Blast Mainnet” or similar.
Approve in MetaMask: Click this button. A MetaMask notification will pop up asking for your permission to add the Blast network.
Confirm and Switch: Review the details (which should be pre-filled) and approve the addition. MetaMask may also ask if you want to switch to the Blast network immediately.
