In August 2025, the popular crypto wallet MetaMask, developed by Consensys, introduced an innovative Social Login feature that allows users to create, recover, and log into wallets using Google or Apple accounts. This update, announced on August 26, eliminates the need to manually manage a traditional 12-word recovery phrase (Secret Recovery Phrase, SRP), which often deters newcomers in the world of cryptocurrencies.

MetaMask, the most widely used wallet in the Ethereum ecosystem, has officially integrated the Solana blockchain. The new integration, announced on Tuesday via MetaMask’s blog, enables native Solana transactions directly through the MetaMask desktop extension, marking the first-ever support for a non-EVM (Ethereum Virtual Machine) network on the platform.
“Managing wallets across MetaMask and Solana used to be a bit of an ordeal. But no more,” MetaMask’s team stated in the announcement. “With the latest version of MetaMask Extension, you can use Solana natively. Right alongside your Ethereum accounts, all in one interface.”
Solana Joins MetaMask’s Growing Ecosystem
Previously, MetaMask only supported Ethereum and other EVM-compatible networks like BNB Chain, Polygon, and Arbitrum. The inclusion of Solana, the second-largest smart contract platform by activity, signals a significant expansion of MetaMask's multi-chain ambitions.
While the update is currently exclusive to MetaMask’s desktop extension, the company has confirmed that support for Solana on the mobile app will be launched in the coming weeks.
Why This Matters
The integration streamlines access to Solana-based dApps, NFTs, and DeFi platforms, removing the need for users to juggle multiple wallets like Phantom or Solflare. This move is expected to drive further user adoption across both ecosystems, fostering interoperability in a previously fragmented multichain environment.
MetaMask, which boasts over 100 million annual users, is now paving the way for additional non-EVM blockchain integrations, as hinted in their blog. Though specifics remain undisclosed, this strategic evolution aligns with growing demand for unified crypto experiences across diverse blockchains.
Looking Ahead: A Unified Web3 Experience
The update not only makes it easier for developers and users to interact with both Ethereum and Solana applications within a single wallet but also signals a shift toward greater Web3 accessibility. Users can now manage ETH, SOL, and tokens from both ecosystems through one familiar interface, marking a crucial step toward interoperable wallet infrastructure.
The long-awaited support for Solana highlights MetaMask’s broader mission to simplify blockchain interactions for the mainstream — and with the mobile backing on the horizon, that mission is accelerating.
