There’s been chatter about a MetaMask rewards leak. Those concepts were early prototypes — not live. But the vision behind them is very real. And it is all about building a token economy.
MetaMask is building the future of personal finance. We’re designing an experience that rewards people for how they already use MetaMask through meaningful incentives, perks, and referrals. In Season 1, we’re distributing over $30 million in multiple forms, including
$LINEA tokens to users for the onchain activity they already do every day. This is just the first step toward a much larger evolution, one that deepens how MetaMask connects, empowers, and rewards its community.
The MetaMask token will extend that vision, empowering our community and honoring the OGs who’ve been with us from the start. Long-time users will see meaningful benefits, not only through Season 1 of Rewards but also through the upcoming MetaMask TGE. At the same time, we’re welcoming new users to explore and do more with MetaMask, creating value for everyone who participates. If you haven’t transacted with MetaMask in a while, now’s the time to update your MetaMask, and give it another try. We’ve shipped a lot of great improvements lately, and MetaMask now is better than ever, on both browser extension and mobile.
Across Consensys, we’re building token-powered economies that create positive-sum relationships between users and builders. Starting with Linea, expanding through MetaMask, soon through DIN (Infura’s Decentralized Infrastructure project) – and beyond. We’re grateful for your feedback as we continue to build with you, and for you, as we bring the global economy onchain and lock in the paradigm shift to progressive decentralization. We are shipping big projects and features at an accelerated pace. Look out for something new and impactful every couple of weeks or so in Uptober, November, December and throughout 2026.

Yes, a rewards program is on the way. 👀
Any of the details you've previously seen/heard are not indicative of what is to actually launch. Let's talk a little bit about what the actual MetaMask Rewards program WILL be.
This program will yield referral rewards, mUSD incentives, exclusive partner rewards, access to tokens, and more.
However, it is not a farming play. It is shaping up to be one of the largest onchain rewards programs ever built - in MetaMask Rewards Season 1 alone, we'll be distributing over $30M in LINEA token rewards.
We're intending for this to be a genuine method of regularly giving back to our community.
And to the OGs... we see you.
Long-time MetaMask users will not be ignored - they'll be given special benefits, and MetaMask Rewards will have meaningful connections with the future MetaMask token.
We’ll have more details to share and will be rolling out the full program in the next couple of weeks.
Stay tuned. 🦊🧡
