In brief
- •MetaMask launches a $30 million crypto program to reward its loyal and active users.
- •This program prepares the arrival of the MetaMask token and strengthens the Linea and mUSD ecosystem.
The adoption war continues in the crypto sphere
This time, it’s MetaMask‘s turn to bring out the heavy artillery. We’re talking about over $30 million that will fuel a crypto rewards program centered around LINEA tokens and the mUSD stablecoin. The operation targets both active users and wallet veterans.
Consensys, MetaMask’s parent company, announces a Season 1 designed as a community leverage. Referrals, exclusive perks, mUSD bonuses, early access to tokens… Everything is calibrated to reward real activity on the Ethereum crypto blockchain and its extensions.
The crypto wallet is also looking to reconnect with its base. Those who have supported MetaMask from the beginning will receive explicit recognition. Called “OGs,” they will have access to specific benefits ahead of a MetaMask token generation event. A first step towards what Consensys presents as a revolution in Web3 personal finance.
This movement is part of a desire to build a sustainable crypto economy, as explained by Joe Lubin, founder of Consensys, in his post on X.
Towards a tokenized ecosystem led by Consensys
This crypto campaign far exceeds the simple wallet scope. The project aims to connect the building blocks of the Consensys universe:
- •wallet;
- •stablecoin;
- •layer 2;
- •decentralized infrastructure (coming soon).
Launched in September, the LINEA token embodies the Layer 2 network renewal Ethereum Linea. MetaMask uses it as a lever for adoption. A distribution of 9.4 billion tokens has paved the way. With $30 million injected into this first wave of rewards, the strategy is clear: to use MetaMask’s firepower to boost activity on Linea.
At the same time, the stablecoin mUSD issued by Bridge (a Stripe subsidiary) is gradually integrating into the user experience. Its monetary supply has already reached $88 million. Adding mUSD incentives in the crypto program thus aligns the interests between the wallet, stablecoin, and execution layer.
And that’s not all! This program also announces the future. In addition to the MetaMask token, Consensys is preparing DIN, a token dedicated to Infura. This is its Web3 infrastructure platform. The logic remains the same: to build interconnected tokenized economies, with a reward system as the binding element.
MetaMask no longer just secures access to DApps. It now positions itself as the operational heart of a tokenized crypto ecosystem. And for those who thought that wallets were just simple tools, it’s time to rethink the concept.
