[MetaMask Adds Native Support for Bitcoin, Advancing Multi-Chain Expansion] According to The Block, Ethereum wallet MetaMask is continuing its multi-chain expansion and now natively supports Bitcoin. MetaMask users can now directly purchase Bitcoin with fiat currency, perform on-chain Bitcoin network transfers, and exchange native EVM assets and SOL for Bitcoin. The latest version of MetaMask will initially support native Segregated Witness (SegWit) addresses and plans to add support for Taproot addresses 'soon.' ConsenSys CEO Joseph Lubin stated in an interview in October that the company is actively working on the issuance of the MASK token, though the exact release date has not yet been determined. An announcement released on Monday stated that users who exchange Bitcoin on MetaMask will be able to earn MetaMask reward points.
