MetaMask unveils "MASK" token distribution plan for 140 million users, emerging as a top airdrop candidate

Latest Developments: Reality Increases as claim.metamask.io Domain Registered

Major Ethereum wallet MetaMask (with 143 million users worldwide) is steadily preparing to launch its own native token, “MASK.” Recently, the registration of the domain “claim.metamask.io,” believed to be the official claim site, was confirmed, generating significant buzz in the crypto community.

Reward Program Mechanism: More Than Just a Free Giveaway

MASK is not just an airdrop, but is tied to a structured reward system. Here’s how it works:

• On-chain Activity: Earn points through token swaps, bridge usage, referrals, and more
• Linea Layer2 Integration: Integrated with ConsenSys’ “Linea” network to encourage ecosystem participation
• Seasonal Bonuses: $30 million worth of LINEA tokens planned for distribution in Season 1
• Early Adopter Benefits: Retrospective rewards under consideration for initial users

Estimated Market Cap: $12 Billion Potential?

According to analysts, using MetaMask’s annual revenue (about $120 million) as the basis, the fully diluted valuation (FDV) of the MASK token could reach $12 billion. This suggests a scale on par with major projects.

“Tokenomics” Boosted by Integration with mUSD Stablecoin

The recently introduced mUSD stablecoin by MetaMask could become the lifeblood of the MASK ecosystem:

• Liquidity provision within the reward system
• Support for staking and governance functions
• More efficient cross-chain transactions

Governance Rights and Decentralization: Shift Toward Community-Driven Model

The main goal of the MASK token is to grant governance rights. If users can actually participate in MetaMask protocol decisions, it will accelerate platform democratization—bringing it a step closer to the ideals of “Web3.”

Security Warning: Beware of Scam Sites

Major airdrops are prime targets for scammers. Always do the following:

• Verify Official Domain: Only use claim.metamask.io
• Ignore Emails and DMs: MetaMask only provides guidance through official channels
• Never Enter Your Private Key

Symbol of “Airdrop Season 2.0”?

Currently, many projects are announcing token distributions one after another. With the highest profile among them, MetaMask’s MASK plan could set the tone for the entire industry. If the distribution is successful, more major projects are likely to follow.

Conclusion: Balancing Opportunity and Caution

MASK token distribution is definitely coming, but the timing is still unclear. The three most important points:

1. Early participation in the reward system (accumulate points through on-chain activity)
2. Only trust official information (to prevent scams)
3. Don’t get overly optimistic (uncertainty about post-distribution price)

As regulatory transparency increases, native tokens from large wallets like MetaMask signal the beginning of a new era.
