MetaMask to Integrate Polymarket in Bid to Become a DeFi “Super-App”

FORT WORTH, Texas – MetaMask is taking another step toward its DeFi ambitions. The world’s most used self-custodial wallet will integrate Polymarket, a leading platform for blockchain-based prediction markets. The update arrives later this year and will let 250 million users trade on real-world events directly inside the wallet.

The move pushes MetaMask beyond simple storage and token swaps. For years, it served mainly as a Web3 gateway. Now it is shaping into a financial interface where people can trade, earn, and invest without leaving the chain.

Until now, joining Polymarket required bridging assets to the Polygon network and holding MATIC tokens for gas fees. That process discouraged new users. The new setup removes those steps and allows one-click access.

“We’ve seen strong interest in prediction markets, especially Polymarket,” said Gal Eldar, MetaMask’s Global Product Lead. “Many users quit during setup. This update lets them act quickly while keeping full control of their funds. That is what decentralized finance should deliver.”

Polymarket has become the largest decentralized prediction venue, with active trading across politics, sports, and crypto prices. The integration could bring prediction markets to millions of new users and lift liquidity almost instantly.

The move fits MetaMask’s broader strategy. Earlier this year, it partnered with Hyperliquid to launch perpetual futures trading. Together, these efforts show its intent to build a true on-chain super-app that combines investing and speculation under one roof.

Institutional attention is also growing. The Intercontinental Exchange (ICE), parent company of the New York Stock Exchange, recently invested in Polymarket. ICE views it as a modern data source rather than a betting site. The backing adds credibility within traditional finance circles.

MetaMask will introduce a rewards program to keep users engaged. Participants earn points for app activity, which can unlock perks such as access to a $30 million LINEA token pool.

Because of regulations, the Polymarket feature will not launch everywhere. Users in the United States, United Kingdom, and France must wait until local frameworks improve. MetaMask plans to expand availability once policy conditions allow.

The partnership reflects a wider shift across decentralized finance. Platforms that once offered single-use tools are now blending convenience, security, and self-custody. By adding Polymarket directly to its wallet, MetaMask positions itself as a full on-chain gateway where users can store assets, trade tokens, and forecast events within Web3.
