What is it
MetaMask is a browserplugin that provides a crypto wallet. You can use it to connect to a Defi exchange to swap or trade your altcoins. MetaMask is fun to use, i like the Fox at the login prompt.
Exchanges
Many exchanges and crypto related platforms support MetaMask. You can easily change from one exchange to another to stake some crypto here and trade some crypto there. This can also be helpful to work around the Gas Fee if it is to high on one exchange or the other.
How to use
You can use a Binance account to trade it into a coin you would like to use on Pancakeswap. I send BNB from Binance as that is the native coin for Binance, you also need some BNB on Pancakeswap for Gas Fee to swap coins.
It takes some time to get familiar with the way the wallet works but it is convenient once you had some finger practice.
Gas Fee
The exchange rates for swapping coins on Pancakeswap are low and are paid from your BNB. For every transaction you pay a small percentage to the network. This is called Gas Fee.
BNB
BNB can be bought on Binance and can be send to your metamask wallet using your wallet address.
