MetaMask Expands With Polymarket Prediction Markets & Hyperliquid Perpetual Trading

Consensys-developed MetaMask is significantly expanding its crypto trading capabilities by integrating perpetual swaps trading and announcing exclusive Polymarket prediction markets integration. The popular crypto wallet revealed Wednesday that Polymarket integration will launch later this year, enabling users in approved regions to access onchain prediction markets directly within the app while maintaining full custody of their assets. Users can speculate on real-world events ranging from political elections to cryptocurrency price movements. Simultaneously, MetaMask launched perpetual futures trading powered by Hyperliquid (HYPE), a leading decentralized derivatives protocol that processed $275 billion in volume last month. Perpetual contracts, which represent approximately 75% of all crypto trading volume, allow traders to speculate on future price movements without expiration dates. The new feature includes a redesigned mobile interface, zero swap fees, and one-click funding across EVM-compatible chains. MetaMask also announced a points-based rewards program launching this month, directly tied to user activity and leading to the platform's highly anticipated native token. The program will reward trading activity, referrals, and MetaMask card usage with benefits including fee discounts and token allocations. Consensys has allocated $30 million in Linea's native token for the initial phase, with all points accumulating toward the upcoming MetaMask token. This expansion follows the successful launch of MetaMask USD (MUSD) stablecoin, which surpassed $100 million in supply within one month.
