MetaMask officially confirmed: Over $30 million in LINEA rewards will be distributed in the first quarter.

Once praised as the "entry wallet of the encryption world," the little fox MetaMask has finally announced the launch of a rewards program, expecting to distribute over 30 million USD worth of LINEA Tokens in the first quarter, as a way to regularly give back to the community.

MetaMask Season 1 rewards program: Over 30 million dollars LINEA

MetaMask officially announced that the rewards program will offer referral rewards, mUSD rewards, exclusive partner rewards, Token usage rights, and more. However, it is not just a simple mining game. The first season rewards program is expected to become one of the largest on-chain rewards programs in history, with an anticipated distribution of over 30 million dollars in LINEA Token rewards.

MetaMask hopes to make the rewards program a sincere way to regularly give back to the community. In particular, long-term users of MetaMask will receive special benefits, and the MetaMask rewards will establish a meaningful connection with future MetaMask Tokens. The official team will share more details and will launch the complete plan in the coming weeks.

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…

MetaMask is transitioning from a "Wallet" to an "Ecosystem Platform"

Although the official details have not yet been announced, according to the current announcement, MetaMask is transitioning from a "Wallet" to an "Ecosystem Platform" and hopes to encourage the community to stay on the relevant ecosystem platform through long-term points rewards. However, there are also some voices criticizing MetaMask's Swap/Bridge transaction fees as being too high, worrying that the points system will become a "forced activity" rather than natural usage.

In addition, the widely circulated airdrop points calculation among the community was found by @ONEMINNFT from the GitHub code, including:

Spot trading for every 100 dollars → 80 points

Futures trading 每交易 100 美元 → 10 點

Past trading history (Past trading) Accumulate → 250 points for every $1,250 (Limit 50,000 points)

Using the LINEA chain can earn a 100% distribution (i.e., double points)

Past trading behavior will also be taken into account, but there is a limit; while operating on the LINEA chain, the points earned will be multiplied by 2.
