"Let's be honest—managing wallets between MetaMask and Solana used to be challenging. But not anymore," stated a company blog post. "With the latest MetaMask extension update, you can now use Solana natively, right alongside your Ethereum accounts—all within a single interface."
The integration is currently limited to desktop users, but mobile support is expected in the coming weeks.
MetaMask remains the most widely used Ethereum browser wallet, boasting over 100 million annual users.
While the wallet already supports other networks, Solana marks the first non-EVM (Ethereum Virtual Machine) blockchain integrated into MetaMask. The company hinted that additional non-EVM chains will follow soon.
