Metamask confirms links to future tokens, a $30 million reward program

Metamask confirmed in a post on X over the weekend that it will roll out a new Onchain Rewards program in the coming weeks, securing more than $30 million in Linea tokens for its first season.
The wallet app described the initiative as “one of the biggest on-chain rewards programs ever built,” but it's a way to “reciprocally give back” to users, rather than agriculture play.

Rewards include referral bonuses, MUSD incentives, exclusive partner rewards, token access and other perks, Metamusk said.
Long-time users receive special benefits, and the program is explicitly connected to a long-standing metamask token.

“OGS will not be ignored,” the team wrote, implying early adopters allocation.

Linea is Consency's in-house Ethereum Layer 2 network, which was launched in September with 9.4 billion token airdrops. Allocating $30 million in Linea for Metamask rewards brings together the two flagship projects and uses the bootstrap activity in a new rollup using Metamask reach.

Metamask's Musd Stablecoin, issued by a Stripe-owned bridge, was also launched last month and now has a circular supply of nearly $88 million.
Because the rewards are partially tied to MUSD, the program is designed to create incentives across wallets, stubcoins and layer 2 infrastructure.

Metamask does not clarify whether certain jurisdictions will be excluded or whether anti-sybil rules will be enforced. This is an important detail given that the rewards program is being filmed by farmers.
