MetaMask, the king of crypto wallets is about to shake things up in a big way. They’re adding support for Bitcoin and Solana, two of the hottest names in the crypto game right now.

This means you’ll be able to enter into these ecosystems without needing a bunch of other wallets or wrapped tokens. It’s like having a superpower in your pocket!

Solana needs some good news

Solana is first up, with support launching in May, and this is a big deal because it’s the first non-EVM chain to join the MetaMask party.

You’ll be able to buy, sell, swap, and play with all the cool Solana dapps.

And if you’re already a Solana fan, you’ll get all the security and features you love from MetaMask, plus access to all the other chains you use.

Solana’s been on fire lately, with over 12 billion transactions in January alone, but honestly, it’s way lower than the current records.

Bitcoin, the number one

Bitcoin support is coming a bit later, in the third quarter of this year. But it’s pretty likely it’s worth the wait. Imagine being able to manage your Bitcoin right alongside your other cryptos in one slick app.

But that’s not all, as MetaMask is also giving its app a major facelift. They’re making it easier to use by abstracting away those annoying gas fees, and I have no clue what exactly this means, but gas-less transactions sounds good.

Starting in March, you’ll be able to swap tokens without needing ETH in your account. It’s like magic, but without the top hat and wand.

And if you’re worried about managing multiple wallets, don’t be. MetaMask is introducing multiple Secret Recovery Phrases so you can keep all your wallets in one place.

Paying with crypto just got real

MetaMask is launching a physical crypto card in April, so you can pay with your cryptos in real life using Mastercard’s network. It’s like having your own crypto ATM card, minus the ATM.

Have you read it yet? Solana’s volume plunges hard, the end is near?
