Effective immediately, every existing MetaMask account will automatically generate a Stellar address (derived from the user's existing mnemonic), with no additional setup required. Users can directly hold, manage, send, and receive XLM, Trustline assets, and Soroban tokens, and exchange them between Stellar and other supported networks. Existing Stellar users can also import via mnemonic.
