MetaMask is making a major leap beyond Ethereum by adding support for Solana, marking its first deep integration with a non-EVM blockchain.
The update, now live on MetaMask’s browser extension, allows users to interact with Solana-based tokens and decentralized applications without needing to switch wallets or install separate tools.
The mobile version of MetaMask will also include Solana support soon, further unifying access across devices. This development is part of a broader push by MetaMask to support multiple blockchain ecosystems and end the need for “wallet juggling,” as the team described it.
MetaMask had previously enabled non-EVM connectivity through its Snaps plugin system, but this native integration signals a more streamlined approach. Bitcoin support is already on the roadmap for Q3 2025, reflecting MetaMask’s ambition to cover the full spectrum of leading blockchains.
With roughly 100 million users annually, MetaMask continues to explore paths toward further decentralization—including the long-discussed possibility of launching its own token. While no firm decision has been made, co-founder Dan Finlay recently said that regulatory clarity in the U.S. has made such moves more feasible.
Parent company Consensys also recently reached a tentative resolution with the SEC, ending enforcement actions against MetaMask and clearing the way for future innovation.
