Key eligibility details remain undisclosed, leaving users to await official guidance.

Overview

  • Season 1 will distribute more than $30 million in LINEA over the coming weeks through referral rewards, mUSD incentives, partner offers and early token access, with perks for long-time users.
  • MetaMask and Consensys CEO Joseph Lubin said viral leaks were prototypes and inaccurate, framing the initiative as part of a broader token economy that includes a forthcoming MASK token.
  • The program integrates MetaMask’s mUSD stablecoin issued via Stripe-owned Bridge, available on Ethereum and the Linea Layer 2 network.
  • Specific eligibility rules, anti‑Sybil protections and any jurisdictional restrictions have not been published, with MetaMask urging users to await official updates to avoid scams.
  • Following the announcement, LINEA recorded a modest price uptick and higher trading volume as observers noted MetaMask’s large user base could give the rollout significant reach.
