- MetaMask is actively looking to integrate Bitcoin into its wallet.
- MetaMask website already features a detailed article on it.
- The wallet started as Ethereum only, later integrating Snaps to support other cryptos.
- Integration is rumored to be set for late 2025 to early 2026.
This is a news in development, and The Layer will be adding new information to the article as the events unfold.
MetaMask Could Integrate Bitcoin Soon
MetaMask has been working on Bitcoin integration for quite a while. By as early as the end of 2025, users might be able to add Bitcoins to their MetaMask wallets, or even import existing Bitcoin wallets into their MetaMask. If done, it would make MetaMask even more user-friendly.
The official website even posted an article on Multichain Accounts confirming the development.
MetaMask offers a host of services from the comfort of its wallet, like:
- crypto custody and transfers
- staking
- off-ramp and on-ramp
- Snaps to store keys of non-Ethereum Blockchains like Solana, Algorand, etc.
- several minor defi solutions
In May 2025, MetaMask dropped Solana integration that allowed users to keep SOL on their wallets. Other chains, like Algorand, have also been integrated with the help of Snaps, a plugin that makes MetaMask compatible with non-ETH chains.
MetaMask could be late to the party of multi-chain wallets like Phantom Wallet and Trust Wallet, but it brings a lot more to its users. The wallet, which started as the gateway to the Ethereum ecosystem, will now allow its users to sample a frictionless gateway to Bitcoin and Solana.
Security Gets Trickier
Despite the jump in user experience, the integration might make it easy for hackers to drain multiple accounts of the user across different chains. A single key compromise could drain Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Solana addresses, the most popular three blockchains for most users.
