MetaMask isn’t just your “receive funds” app anymore — it’s turning into an all-in-one hub for trading, rewards, and even prediction markets.
From Deposit to Execution: Perpetual Futures Go Live
MetaMask has officially rolled out Perpetual Futures (Perps) trading. Users in eligible regions can now go long or short directly within the wallet — with up to 40x leverage, powered by Hyperliquid, a decentralized perpetuals protocol.
Funds can be bridged from any EVM chain and deposited straight into a dedicated trading account — making the process as simple as open → confirm → execute.
This marks a new shift: the wallet is absorbing exchange functions, keeping users inside its own ecosystem rather than redirecting them elsewhere.
Polymarket Integration Coming Soon: Turning Discussions Into Positions
Later this year, MetaMask will integrate Polymarket natively — letting users join political, sports, and tech prediction markets directly in-wallet.
It’s not just another tab; it’s a step toward “event-based investing,” where community topics like elections or product launches can become tradable opportunities. The move aligns with the growing global interest in prediction markets as alternative financial signals.
Derivatives Dominate, DEX Volume Surges
Perpetuals now account for over 70% of all crypto trading volume in 2025, with decentralized exchanges hitting a record $765 billion in volume this August. As the market gravitates toward non-custodial, leveraged trading, MetaMask’s Perps and upcoming prediction integration are designed to capture that momentum — merging DeFi access, speculation, and participation into one experience.
Rewards and Token Plans on the Way
Alongside Perps, the MetaMask Rewards system is live — a season-based points program (three months per cycle) that rewards on-chain actions such as swaps, perpetual trades, referrals, and MetaMask Card usage. Points can be redeemed for benefits like over $30 million in $LINEA tokens, trading-fee discounts, and more. MetaMask also confirmed it’s preparing to launch its own token (MASK), linking user activity and ecosystem growth under one incentive loop.
The Wallet as a “Super Interface”
MetaMask’s evolution is clear: the wallet is no longer just a gateway — it’s becoming the platform itself. Soon, users will be able to trade, swap, earn, and speculate on events all from the same interface. This blurs the old line between CEX and DEX, turning the everyday crypto wallet into the main arena for user engagement in Web3.
