You can now buy crypto through Pix, the instant payment method in Brazil that will fund your MetaMask wallet directly without leaving the app. Instead of using an external exchange, you can buy crypto immediately on MetaMask to participate in Web3 today. The Pix feature is powered by MoonPay , a crypto payments provider that integrated with MetaMask earlier this year.
