Positive news has arrived about Mask, the long-standing token of MetaMask, one of the world’s most widely used cryptocurrency wallets.
Rumors about the Metamask Token have been circulating since 2021, but a recent statement from Jourbin has rekindled excitement.
Speaking to The Block, Ethereum co-founder and CEO of Consensys Joe Lubin said MetaMask’s much-anticipated native token, Mask, will be released sooner.
“The mask tokens are coming. They may come sooner than expected right now. This is closely related to the process of decentralizing some of the features of the MetaMask Platform.”
Joe Lubin said mask tokens could distribute the core capabilities of metamasks and provide more statements for users to governance and platform decisions.
When launched, mask tokens can offer rewards, voting power, new use cases and provide the community with more options to actively engage in MetaMask.
As you may remember, MetaMask co-founder Dan Finlay hinted at the mask token in an interview in May. Finlay said that once the token is launched it will be advertised directly in the wallet and “you can find the link directly in your wallet.”
