MetaMask, the widely used Ethereum-based crypto wallet, is gearing up to release its native token, MASK, potentially earlier than anticipated. The announcement was confirmed by Consensys CEO and Ethereum co-founder Joe Lubin on September 19, signaling a major step toward decentralizing the platform.

“MASK is coming. It may arrive sooner than you expect,” Lubin stated, hinting that early adopters and active swap users could benefit from initial rewards. While full tokenomics remain under wraps, the move aligns with MetaMask’s broader mission to expand its decentralized ecosystem.

MASK Token Could Launch on Linea Network

Lubin suggested that the MASK token might debut on MetaMask’s Linea network, a fully EVM-compatible, zero-knowledge rollup layer-2 blockchain. Linea has been designed to enhance reward mechanisms across Consensys platforms and partner protocols.

“MetaMask and Linea are cooking somETHing together to make this happen,” Lubin added, implying that MASK will integrate closely with existing MetaMask features. Token holders may also gain access to additional rewards in other tokens via Linea, reinforcing the synergy between the wallet and its new blockchain network.

Stablecoin Support to Boost MASK Adoption

MetaMask recently launched its own stablecoin, MetaMask USD (mUSD), on Ethereum and Linea. Built on decentralized infrastructure from Bridge and M0, mUSD streamlines on-ramping, holding, and spending crypto. With a $53.31 million market cap and a 52% rise in 24-hour trading volume, mUSD has already strengthened MetaMask’s decentralized vision.

The introduction of MASK will further enhance user experience, allowing holders to earn, trade, and interact seamlessly within the decentralized finance ecosystem.

Looking Ahead

With regulatory conditions in the U.S. reportedly favorable under the current administration, MetaMask appears ready to push forward with MASK, potentially making it a central feature of the wallet. Users can expect early incentives, deeper integration with Linea, and expanded opportunities in decentralized finance.
