Plug is preparing for a busy start to 2026, with plans to expand its wallet beyond swaps and trading into a full cross-chain DeFi platform. A web version of Plug is expected in the first quarter, enabling users to manage wallets and DeFi activity directly from their browser. The release will support multiple login options, including Plug, Internet Identity, Oisy, Phantom, MetaMask and other wallets.
Alongside the web version, Plug plans to introduce cross-chain borrowing and lending. This will allow users to lend and borrow assets across supported networks through a single non-custodial interface, removing the need to navigate multiple platforms for different blockchains. Users will be able to access liquidity from one chain while leveraging assets on another, potentially reducing costs and increasing efficiency for DeFi participants.
Following these updates, the team intends to focus on Earn and yield products. Plug aims to aggregate competitive yield opportunities across supported chains, providing users with a centralised view of cross-chain earning options directly in the wallet. By streamlining access to these products, Plug hopes to simplify participation in yield strategies that often require complex interactions across multiple protocols.
The platform is also expected to enhance usability with improved interfaces, better portfolio tracking and simplified transaction management. Features such as notifications for staking rewards, automatic updates for loan positions, and visual summaries of earnings are planned to make the wallet more intuitive, particularly for users navigating multiple chains simultaneously.
Plug’s roadmap reflects a broader trend in DeFi, where wallets are evolving into full-service platforms capable of handling swaps, lending, staking and yield aggregation without requiring multiple apps or logins. The move signals an emphasis on convenience and accessibility, potentially attracting users who have previously been deterred by fragmented tools and interfaces.
The team behind Plug has stated that security and non-custodial control will remain central. By giving users full ownership of private keys while supporting advanced cross-chain functionality, Plug seeks to balance ease of use with the core principles of decentralisation.
If successful, these updates could position Plug as a leading crypto wallet for DeFi users who want an integrated, multi-chain experience without sacrificing control over their assets.
