Developers of the non-custodial wallet MetaMask have unveiled a roadmap announcing the app’s expansion beyond EVM network spaces.
This is just the beginning.
MetaMask is evolving into the best connected, most useful, and most powerful next-gen self-custodial wallet — one that makes crypto simpler, safer, and more accessible.

According to Daniel Finlay, founder and head of the MetaMask group at ConsenSys, the wallet will integrate Solana in May. Direct support for Bitcoin is expected in the third quarter. Currently, users can interact with these blockchains via the cross-chain platform Snaps. For Bitcoin, an alternative is using the “wrapped” ERC-20 version.
In March, developers plan to extend the gasless swap feature to all assets. Users will be able to pay network fees with any available token.
To further simplify transactions, the team will implement the ERC-5792 standard, allowing for batch sequential operations. This will save time and reduce costs.
MetaMask will also update the main screen. The interface will display all tokens across various networks without the need to switch between them.
In the future, the app will integrate account abstraction. Users will be able to turn the wallet into a smart contract with a special access level. This will enhance security, allow for access recovery if a private key is lost, and expand interaction methods with assets and applications.
The option will become feasible following the implementation of EIP-7702 during the planned April hard fork Pectra in Ethereum.
Back in May 2024, it was revealed that the MetaMask team was working on Bitcoin integration. The solution was planned to be deployed within a month.
