Long-time MetaMask users will receive special perks, tying into the future MetaMask token teased by Consensys CEO Joseph Lubin in September.<\/p>\n<p>MetaMask clarified that earlier leaks about the program\u2019s details did not reflect its actual launch parameters. The platform is tailoring incentives to different user groups, with a focus on veteran supporters.<\/p>\n<p>LINEA tokens will serve as the main reward for Season 1. Linea, an Ethereum Layer 2 network also incubated by Consensys, launched its native token in September through a 9.4 billion token airdrop.<\/p>\n<p>The program also integrates MetaMask\u2019s new mUSD stablecoin, issued by Stripe-owned Bridge, which launched on Ethereum and Linea but does not offer yield-bearing features.<\/p>\n<p>Questions remain about geographic eligibility and anti-Sybil measures to prevent abuse through multiple accounts.<\/p>\n<p>The announcement drew mixed reactions on X.

The link to a potential MASK token has also fueled speculation about how participation might influence future token allocations.<\/p>\n<p>    <!-- .cn-block-related-link --><\/p><\/div>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>MetaMask plans to launch a major on-chain rewards program within the next few weeks, distributing over $30 million in LINEA (LINEA) tokens during Season 1.
