PANews reported on February 28 that according to CoinDesk, MetaMask, a popular wallet in the Ethereum ecosystem, announced a new development roadmap, focusing on optimizing the user experience, and plans to launch smart contract accounts (CA), ERC-5792 batch transaction functions and MetaMask debit cards.

New features include the introduction of smart contract wallets. Compared with the current external accounts (EOA) that rely on private keys, smart contract accounts support transaction recovery mechanisms to improve asset security. In addition, MetaMask will support ERC-5792 batch transactions, allowing users to complete approval + transactions with one click, reducing gas fees and operation steps.

The MetaMask team also announced that its MetaMask debit card will be launched in some states in the United States in mid-March, after having been piloted in the United Kingdom and the European Union. The card supports users to pay directly with crypto assets in their wallets and is compatible with the Mastercard network.

In addition, MetaMask will add support for Bitcoin (BTC) and Solana (SOL), enabling users to manage multiple blockchain assets in the same wallet. The team said that it will continue to optimize multi-chain integration in the future to enhance the overall user experience.
