MetaMask Now Officially Supports Bitcoin
Summary
MetaMask has added support for Bitcoin, allowing users to buy, swap, send, and receive BTC directly within the wallet. Previously, MetaMask users could only interact with Bitcoin through wrapped tokens. The integration was announced ten months after it was first teased and follows MetaMask’s recent expansions to Solana, Monad, and Sei blockchains. Transactions in BTC will display in users’ asset lists after confirmation, though they may be slower than those on Ethereum or Solana networks. Swaps into BTC now earn MetaMask reward points. The company plans to add more blockchains in the coming year as part of its ongoing shift from a solely Ethereum-based wallet to a broader multichain platform.
