On December 15, 2025, MetaMask, one of the most popular Web3 wallets with over 30 million active users monthly, announced the launch of native support for Bitcoin (BTC). Now users can directly buy, store, send, receive, and swap bitcoins in one interface along with Ethereum, Solana, Monad, and Sei assets.
The update allows for operating without wrapped versions of BTC, reducing risks and dependence on bridges. Initially, SegWit address format is supported, and Taproot will appear soon. Purchasing BTC is available through fiat (cards, Apple Pay, PayPal, etc.), and swaps in BTC earn points in the MetaMask Rewards program.
This step completes the multi-chain strategy of MetaMask announced earlier this year and makes the wallet a universal tool for the entire crypto market. In 2026, they promise to add even more networks.
This is a significant step towards mass adoption and unification of the ecosystem.
