The Layer-1 (L1) blockchain, which powers internet capital markets, payments, and crypto applications,\u00a0is at the center of a collaboration between industry giants.<\/p>\n

The \u201ceverything wallet\u201d teams up with a leading payments framework provider.<\/p>\n

Extending The Reach Into Web3<\/h2>\n

In a press release shared with CryptoPotato, <\/em>the non-custodial wallet<\/a> MetaMask has partnered with Transak, one of the largest payments infrastructure providers, by introducing native support for Solana, marking the first integration outside of the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM).\u00a0Transak will provide the infrastructure for the fiat-to-SOL highway.<\/p>\n

From today, MetaMask users will be able to buy Solana tokens directly from the app, using their country\u2019s fiat currency via credit\/debit cards, Apple Pay, Google Pay, bank transfers, and other payment methods.<\/p>\n

There will be no need for bridges, complicated exchanges, or a steep learning curve \u2013 just a few clicks will be all that it takes to enter the Solana ecosystem.<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cThis is a significant milestone for MetaMask and a natural extension of our mission to make crypto more accessible,\u201d said Lorenzo Santos, Senior Product Manager at MetaMask. \u201cSolana has become a core part of the Web3 conversation, and with Transak, our users can now effortlessly purchase SOL using their local currencies, simplifying the onboarding experience.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

The self-managed wallet has been active for over eight years now and has facilitated millions of transactions globally, serving as a powerful entry point into the products offered by Ethereum.<\/p>\n

By 2024, MetaMask has expanded<\/a> to offer on-ramp support to over 10 EVM chains, primarily powered by Transak\u2019s architecture.<\/p>\n

Solana\u2019s comeback over the past year has been quite notable. At the time of printing, the active monthly addresses on the chain are 69.9 million, whereas at the same time last year, they were 15.8 million, according to data from Token Terminal.\u00a0This places the network first among other L1 peers such as BNB, NEAR, and even Ethereum.<\/p>\n

Its native token, SOL, is also ranked fifth by market capitalization, with a value of over $106 billion, according to the latest data from CoinMarketCap.<\/p>\n

Long-Standing Partners<\/h2>\n

This is not the first time MetaMask and Transak have joined forces. The duo has collaborated since 2021, when the latter was the wallet\u2019s first fiat on-ramp provider.<\/p>\n

With Solana now in the mix, easy access is no longer the only mainstay. Fragmented ecosystems are now unified into a single, decentralized application (DApp), thereby minimizing technical challenges and complexities.<\/p>\n

The team behind MetaMask is not stopping here, as plans for Bitcoin support have already been confirmed.<\/p>\n

The CEO of Transak, Sami Start, had the following to say:<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cThis is what Web3 was always meant to be \u2013 open, accessible, and chain-agnostic. \u201cWe\u2019re proud to be building the infrastructure that brings this vision to life, starting with MetaMask and Solana.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
