Crypto Wallet MetaMask Expands From Ethereum and Solana to Bitcoin

In brief

  • MetaMask rolled out support for Bitcoin, allowing users to buy, sell, and send BTC in-wallet.
  • The network expansion is the latest in feature enhancements that include in-wallet perps, prediction market trading, and more.
  • MetaMask recently added support for Monad and Sei, and will add additional networks in 2026, as well.

Popular Ethereum wallet MetaMask now supports Bitcoin, allowing users to buy, send, and receive the top crypto asset by market cap. 

The rollout comes nearly a year after the wallet first announced it would introduce support for Bitcoin as it began its expansion beyond Ethereum.

“We’re excited to announce that Bitcoin is now supported on MetaMask. This means you can trade and manage BTC alongside Ethereum, Solana, Monad, and Sei assets, all inside your MetaMask wallet,” a statement from the company reads.

(Disclaimer: MetaMask is a product of Consensys, one of 22 investors in an editorially independent Decrypt). 

The network expansion comes amid a flurry of recent feature enhancements, as it seeks to stay near the top of a competitive wallet landscape. 

In August, the wallet launched its own stablecoin—mUSD—launched on Ethereum and layer-2 scaling network, Linea. Then in October, it unveiled native support for swaps on Hyperliquid, allowing traders to easily make long or short bets on the popular perps DEX. 

Earlier this month, it added a native Polymarket integration that allows users to place predictions on sports, crypto, and politics directly in-wallet. 

Now users can trade on BTC, earning access after they upgrade their MetaMask wallets to the latest version. 

Once upgraded, those who make swaps into BTC in MetaMask will earn MetaMask reward points—part of a $30 million rewards program designed as long-term community support incentive ahead of the wallet’s native token launch

Following the wallet’s Bitcoin expansion, it is expected to add additional networks in 2026. 

Bitcoin was recently trading at $85,584—down 3.8% in the last 24 hours and now 32% off its all-time high of $126,080.

China Blocks Nvidia’s RTX Pro 6000D as Local Chips Rise

The post China Blocks Nvidia’s RTX Pro 6000D as Local Chips Rise appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. China Blocks Nvidia’s RTX Pro 6000D as Local Chips Rise China’s internet regulator has ordered the country’s biggest technology firms, including Alibaba and ByteDance, to stop purchasing Nvidia’s RTX Pro 6000D GPUs. According to the Financial Times, the move shuts down the last major channel for mass supplies of American chips to the Chinese market. Why Beijing Halted Nvidia Purchases Chinese companies had planned to buy tens of thousands of RTX Pro 6000D accelerators and had already begun testing them in servers. But regulators intervened, halting the purchases and signaling stricter controls than earlier measures placed on Nvidia’s H20 chip. Image: Nvidia An audit compared Huawei and Cambricon processors, along with chips developed by Alibaba and Baidu, against Nvidia’s export-approved products. Regulators concluded that Chinese chips had reached performance levels comparable to the restricted U.S. models. This assessment pushed authorities to advise firms to rely more heavily on domestic processors, further tightening Nvidia’s already limited position in China. China’s Drive Toward Tech Independence The decision highlights Beijing’s focus on import substitution — developing self-sufficient chip production to reduce reliance on U.S. supplies. “The signal is now clear: all attention is focused on building a domestic ecosystem,” said a representative of a leading Chinese tech company. Nvidia had unveiled the RTX Pro 6000D in July 2025 during CEO Jensen Huang’s visit to Beijing, in an attempt to keep a foothold in China after Washington restricted exports of its most advanced chips. But momentum is shifting. Industry sources told the Financial Times that Chinese manufacturers plan to triple AI chip production next year to meet growing demand. They believe “domestic supply will now be sufficient without Nvidia.” What It Means for the Future With Huawei, Cambricon, Alibaba, and Baidu stepping up, China is positioning itself for long-term technological independence. Nvidia, meanwhile, faces…
