MetaMask, a leading self-custodial crypto wallet for Ethereum, has announced significant updates, including support for Bitcoin and Solana.
Bitcoin and Solana Support
The company is expanding its wallet capabilities to include Bitcoin and Solana, allowing users to hold BTC, SOL, and ETH in one place. This will eliminate the need for multiple wallets and third-party services. Bitcoin integration is slated for Q3 2025, while Solana support will be available in May.
MetaMask Metal Card
The company also announced the release of the MetaMask Metal Card, linked to Mastercard. The card will allow spending crypto anywhere Mastercard is accepted, supporting staking and secure transactions.
Smart Transactions and New API
With new features, users can execute batch transactions with a single click, significantly reducing fees and simplifying the process. MetaMask also announced the launch of a Multichain API, which will simplify interactions with multiple blockchains and enhance compatibility.
These updates demonstrate MetaMask's effort to become a more powerful and flexible tool for managing digital assets, making them more accessible and secure.
