MetaMask co-founder and CEO Dan Finlay
has confirmed that MetaMask will be launching native support for Solana (SOL) in May
2025.
This significant development marks
MetaMask's first expansion beyond Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM)-compatible
blockchains, enabling users to store SOL tokens and interact directly with
Solana decentralized applications (dApps) through the MetaMask wallet.
Users will be able to create or import
Solana accounts within MetaMask using their existing Secret Recovery Phrase
(SRP). This integration allows for seamless management of SOL and SPL tokens
alongside Ethereum-based assets.
The update facilitates direct
interaction with Solana dApps, expanding MetaMask's utility beyond
EVM-compatible platforms.
MetaMask's redesigned interface
supports multiple networks, simplifying navigation and asset management across
different blockchains.
This development is part of MetaMask's strategy
to enhance multi-chain interoperability and provide users with a more comprehensive
crypto wallet experience.

guidance on setting up Solana within MetaMask, you can refer to their official
help center: MetaMask Help Center.
