MetaMask, the popular digital wallet, is expanding beyond Ethereum and planning to support other crypto ecosystems starting with Bitcoin. Consensys, the company behind MetaMask, recently advertised for a product manager to design and deliver potential future products for MetaMask's "end-to-end Bitcoin experience." MetaMask has been exploring expanding beyond Ethereum for some time and aims to capture important elements of Bitcoin's ecosystem. While Ethereum has faced criticism and stagnated, other crypto ecosystems like Solana have gained popularity. MetaMask previously enabled exploration of other crypto ecosystems through its MetaMask Snaps feature. The company will release a cross-chain API later this year, allowing decentralized apps to connect and operate across multiple networks simultaneously. MetaMask's move to support other chains is seen as a step in the right direction toward scaling and mass adoption.
