MetaMask has just taken a big step forward by adding native Bitcoin support to its wallet.
This means users can now hold, send, and manage Bitcoin in the same wallet they already use for Ethereum, Solana, and Sei. No extra apps. No separate wallets. Everything in one place.
Once users update to the latest version of MetaMask, a Bitcoin address is automatically created inside their wallet. The wallet uses Bitcoin’s SegWit format, which helps make transactions more efficient. Support for Taproot, a newer Bitcoin upgrade, is planned for a future update.
MetaMask says users can buy Bitcoin using local currency, depending on what payment options are available in their region. They can also swap into Bitcoin from Ethereum-based networks or Solana, and send or receive BTC from exchanges or other wallets. Just keep in mind that Bitcoin transactions usually take longer to confirm compared to other cryptocurrencies.
Alongside the Bitcoin update, MetaMask has also been rolling out new features. Earlier this month, the wallet introduced in-app prediction markets powered by Polymarket. These allow users to trade on real-world events like sports, politics, and crypto trends, using money-backed positions that reflect what the market expects to happen.
MetaMask has also launched its own stablecoin, called MetaMask USD. It’s built directly into the wallet, runs on Ethereum Mainnet and Linea, and is backed 1-to-1 by short-term U.S. Treasury bills.
Together, these updates show MetaMask’s push to become a true all-in-one crypto wallet — one place where users can manage multiple blockchains, trade assets, and access new financial tools without leaving the app.
