MetaMask said users can now buy Bitcoin on MetaMask. Users can also swap to BTC inside the wallet.

MetaMask also said users can send and receive Bitcoin directly. The update aims to simplify Bitcoin in MetaMask wallet flows.

MetaMask explained how transactions will show up after confirmation. It said,

“Any Bitcoin transactions you make will appear in your asset list once confirmed.”

MetaMask also warned about speed differences. It added,

“Remember: Bitcoin transactions are typically slower than those on EVM or Solana networks.”

The post also tied usage to rewards. It said swaps into BTC can earn MetaMask reward points.

Before this rollout, MetaMask users could not use native BTC in the wallet. Instead, they often used wrapped Bitcoin versions.

That structure gave users Bitcoin exposure through tokenized forms. However, it did not give direct MetaMask adds Bitcoin support.

The new release shifts that experience. It brings MetaMask Bitcoin support to the wallet’s core asset list.

The February discussion also included a timeline hint. The report cited Dan Finlay discussing the plan and pointing to Q3 2025.

This rollout landed about 10 months after that early tease. The company framed it as a new step in expanding MetaMask multichain wallet features.
