Description

## Summary
Request native MetaMask support to display the **official network/logo icon** for **BIE Chain** when users add or select this network.

## Network details
| Field | Value |
|------|--------|
| **Network name** | BIE |
| **Short name** | bie |
| **Chain ID** | `1342` (`0x53E`) |
| **Native currency** | BIE, 18 decimals |
| **RPC (primary)** | `https://rpc.bie.ai` |
| **RPC (additional)** | `https://api.bie.ai` |
| **Official site** | https://bie.ai |
| **Public listing (ethereum-lists)** | https://github.com/ethereum-lists/chains/blob/master/_data/chains/eip155-1342.json |
| **Public listing (chainlist)** | https://github.com/DefiLlama/chainlist/blob/main/constants/additionalChainRegistry/chainid-1342.js |

## Official icon asset
`ethereum-lists/chains` includes a registered icon slug `bie` with this PNG (512×512):

- **IPFS**: `ipfs://bafkreieqvjhjcwwz3m4r6hbiphst5zodbtou45gwkqlhh7uoh3vl5tkfem`
- **HTTP gateway (for convenience)**: https://ipfs.io/ipfs/bafkreieqvjhjcwwz3m4r6hbiphst5zodbtou45gwkqlhh7uoh3vl5tkfem

Icon metadata: https://github.com/ethereum-lists/chains/blob/master/_data/icons/bie.json

## Context / motivation
BIE Chain metadata is merged into standard chain registries (e.g. `ethereum-lists/chains`, Chainlist). End users still see a **generic** MetaMask network icon; we would like the **same official icon** to appear in the MetaMask UI for chainId **1342**, consistent with other natively supported networks.

## Notes
If you need any additional verification (RPC health checks, official ownership proof, alternate icon formats), tell us what format you prefer and we will provide it promptly.

Thank you!

Research direction

Start by checking the linked ethereum-lists chain entry and `bie` icon metadata for chainId 1342, then locate the existing MetaMask path for native network icons. Done means BIE Chain uses its official icon in the MetaMask UI and the relevant verification or regression checks pass.
