MetaMask Adds TRON Integration to Expand Multi-Chain Access

MetaMask, the leading self-custodial crypto wallet developed by Consensys, has officially added TRON support. The integration will allow users to access the TRON ecosystem directly within MetaMask’s familiar interface. This marks another step in MetaMask’s effort to move beyond its Ethereum roots. The wallet, which has over 100 million annual active users, recently added Solana and Sei. It has also signaled plans to integrate Bitcoin later this year, further broadening its reach.

Strengthening TRON’s Global Role

TRON has grown into one of the most active blockchain networks, especially for stablecoin transactions. According to TRON, the network processes nearly nine million transactions daily and settles $22 billion in value. It is widely used for USDT payments across Asia, South America, Africa, and Europe. TRON founder Justin Sun said the partnership highlights the importance of interoperability in the digital economy. “As stablecoin adoption grows, networks with high throughput and low costs are becoming finance’s core rails,” Sun noted.

A Gateway to Web3

MetaMask’s leadership emphasized that TRON’s addition will make the wallet even more versatile for global users. Angel Gonzalez-Capizzi, Director of Business Development at MetaMask, called it a step toward becoming a true Web3 gateway. The wallet now supports EVM and non-EVM networks, providing users with wider access to decentralized applications. TRON DAO spokesperson Sam Elfarra stressed the significance of the move for financial inclusion worldwide. “Integrating TRON broadens access for millions while reinforcing its role as a global financial infrastructure,” he said.

Looking Ahead

TRON operates as a high-throughput Layer 1 blockchain with a Delegated Proof-of-Stake model. Its compatibility with Ethereum tools makes it easier for developers to build applications. The MetaMask team said the integration would extend TRON’s global adoption while creating more seamless cross-chain access. Justin Sun described the collaboration as “a meaningful step” in driving real-world use of blockchain technology. With Ethereum Layer 2s already integrated and Bitcoin on the roadmap, MetaMask continues to strengthen its multi-chain approach. The partnership with TRON is expected to deepen adoption in regions already using crypto for daily transactions.
