  When adding tokens to Metamask, there are a few limitations and restrictions that you should keep in mind. Firstly, Metamask supports ERC-20 tokens, which are the most common type of tokens on the Ethereum network. This means that if you want to add a token to Metamask, it must be an ERC-20 token. Secondly, you need to have the contract address of the token in order to add it to Metamask. Without the contract address, you won't be able to add the token. Lastly, it's important to note that not all tokens are listed on Metamask by default. If a token is not listed, you can manually add it by following the steps provided by Metamask. Overall, while there are some limitations and restrictions, adding tokens to Metamask is a straightforward process as long as you have the necessary information.

  Adding tokens to Metamask is fairly simple, but there are a few things to keep in mind. Firstly, you need to ensure that the token you want to add is compatible with Metamask. As Metamask primarily supports ERC-20 tokens, you'll need to make sure that the token you want to add is an ERC-20 token. Secondly, you'll need the contract address of the token in order to add it to Metamask. Without the contract address, you won't be able to add the token. Lastly, it's worth noting that not all tokens are automatically listed on Metamask. If the token you want to add is not listed, you can manually add it by entering the contract address. Overall, while there are some limitations and restrictions, adding tokens to Metamask is a fairly straightforward process.
