The main way to buy BRC-20 tokens is through the Unisat Wallet application and extension. Unisat Wallet is the first open-source wallet for Ordinals that enables the Bitcoin network.

You can download the extension using Google Chrome Web Store. After that, you must set it as a normal cryptocurrency wallet like Metamask, Phantom, Keplr, etc. If you don’t have a Metamask wallet or any more, you can interact with the link below.
