Key Takeaways:

  • ConsenSys CEO Joseph Lubin confirms that a MetaMask token is on the way.
  • The token will support decentralization, governance, and user rewards.
  • With 30M+ monthly active users, MetaMask is positioned for one of the most impactful token launches in crypto.

Ethereum co-founder and ConsenSys CEO Joseph Lubin has confirmed what the crypto industry has speculated for years: a MetaMask token is coming. While no official date has been disclosed, Lubin suggested that the launch could arrive “sooner than you would expect.”

The crypto community is now more excited with this announcement, as MetaMask keeps growing its ecosystem with more features and integrations, as well as its own stablecoin.

A Long-Awaited Token Finally on the Horizon

Rumors of native MetaMask token have existed since 2021, though ConsenSys has been holding the information confidential. Lubin has recently made a confirmation, which shows that the project is leaving the realm of speculation and entering into reality.

The future MASK token is likely to be a major part of decentralizing MetaMask by:

  • Enabling governance rights for users to vote on upgrades and policies.
  • Introducing incentives such as rewards for active wallet activity.
  • Integrating with other ConsenSys services, creating stronger ties within its ecosystem.

Provided it is implemented, the launch would turn MetaMask into more than a wallet but a platform that is community-driven, where the governance is central to it.

MetaMask’s Scale Makes It a Unique Candidate

MetaMask is already the most downloaded Web3 wallet in the world with more than 30 million monthly active users. It has unrivaled potential to catalyze adoption of a native token because of its reach on Ethereum and EVM compatible block chains as well as layer-2 networks.

The popularity of the wallet is connected with its simplicity and flexibility:

  • Available as both a browser extension and mobile app.
  • Provides access to Ethereum dApps, NFTs, and DeFi platforms.
  • Supports multiple networks through cu
  • stom RPC integration.

With this huge customer base, analysts feel that MASK would experience fast global adoption as soon as it is launched just like the wallet, which is the default gateway to Ethereum.

Stablecoin Integration and Expanding Features

The token news is in combination with the further growth of MetaMask. Earlier this year, ConsenSys introduced MetaMask USD (mUSD), a dollar-backed stablecoin designed for everyday payments and DeFi activity.

mUSD is pegged to short-term Treasury or U.S. dollars on a 1:1 basis, which guarantees stability and at the same time fits perfectly into the MetaMask wallet. Users can:

  • Swap, store, and send mUSD across supported blockchains.
  • Use mUSD with the upcoming MetaMask Card, which connects to Mastercard’s global network.
  • Leverage stablecoin holdings for both on-chain activity and real-world payments.

This dual approach, combining a native token (MASK) with a stablecoin (mUSD) positions MetaMask to evolve beyond a wallet into a complete Web3 financial hub.

What Industry Leaders Are Saying

Lubin emphasized that decentralizing MetaMask’s features is not just a plan but a strategic priority:
“The MetaMask token is coming. It may come sooner than you would expect. And it is significantly related to the decentralization of certain aspects of the MetaMask platform.”

Dan Finlay, MetaMask co-founder, has previously hinted that the token would be promoted directly inside the wallet, ensuring instant visibility to millions of users. He also noted that today’s regulatory environment is more conducive to token launches than in previous years.

Industry observers agree that timing is key This has potential to see the MASK token reach a point where governance tokens are again coming back to legitimacy as regulators become less conservative in 2025 towards digital assets.

The FDA Is Trying To Make Corporate Free Speech Situational

The post The FDA Is Trying To Make Corporate Free Speech Situational appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. BENSENVILLE, ILLINOIS – SEPTEMBER 10: Flanked by U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi (rear), and FDA Commissioner Marty Makary (R), Secretary of Health and Human Services Robert F. Kennedy Jr. speaks to the press outside Midwest Distribution after it was raided by federal agents on September 10, 2025 in Bensenville, Illinois. According to the company, various e-liquids were seized in the raid. (Photo by Scott Olson/Getty Images) Getty Images While running for President in 2008, Barack Obama famously chanted “Yes we can.” Love or hate his political views, Obama’s politics were quite effective. He was asking voters to think big, to envision a much better future. Advertisers no doubt approved. That’s because ads routinely evoke things not as they are, but as they could be. Gyms and exercise equipment companies don’t promote their locations and equipment with flabby, lumbering people, rather their ads show fit, upright, energetic individuals. A look ahead. Restaurants do the same with ads showing happy people enjoying impressively put together plates of food. Conversely, ads meant to convince smokers to quit have not infrequently shown the worst of the worst future downsides of the habit. The nature of advertising comes to mind as FDA commissioner Marty Makary puzzlingly brags that “The Trump Administration Is Taking On Big Pharma” in the New York Times. Makary laments pharmaceutical ads that “are filled with dancing patients, glowing smiles and catch jingles that drown out the fine print.” Not explained is whether Makary would be happier if drug companies placed ads with immobile patients, frowns, and funereal music. Seriously, what does he expect? Does he want drug companies to commit billions to drug development to accompany their achievements with imagery defined by misery? Has Makary stopped to contemplate the myriad shareholders lawsuits drugmakers would face if, upon risking staggering sums meant…

Bitcoin’s cycle clock points to a final high by late October, will ETFs rewrite history?

Bitcoin’s cycle clock points to a final high by late October, will ETFs rewrite history?

The post Bitcoin’s cycle clock points to a final high by late October, will ETFs rewrite history? appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Bitcoin price trades near $117,000 after the Federal Reserve decision on interest rates, as the 1,065-day post-halving window approaches. The Fed cut rates by 25bps yesterday, placing Bitcoin’s near-term path at the intersection of policy and a cycle marker Axios says has historically captured a “final high” roughly 1,065 days after a prior cycle low. The test window runs through late September and early October, then the market will trade into Thanksgiving on flow, dollar, and rate dynamics that can either extend the advance or start the topping process that prior cycles paired with drawdowns of 40 to 60 percent, according to Axios. Spot ETF demand is the first lever to watch because it turns the cycle into a flow problem. According to CoinShares’ latest weekly fund-flow update, U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs saw renewed net inflows in late August and early September, measured in billions of dollars, while SoSoValue tracked a mid-September multi-session inflow streak with a single-day print of around $260 million on September 15. Those figures contrast with the post-halving issuance of about 452 Bitcoin per day, calculated as 3.125 Bitcoin per block times roughly 144 blocks per day. When multi-day ETF demand absorbs several thousand Bitcoin per week, the market’s ability to distribute inventory at the highs narrows, and topping processes can lengthen into a plateau rather than a single peak. Macro conditions set the second lever. This month, the euro touched a four-year high against the dollar as cut expectations increased, while front-end Treasury yields eased into the meeting. A softer dollar lowers global financial conditions and often correlates with higher beta across risk assets. At the same time, domestic inflation has cooled from last year’s pace, with August headline CPI at 2.5 percent year over year and core at 3.0 percent, according to the Bureau of Labor…

Huawei reveals giant new AI chip cluster as Nvidia’s China issues rise

Huawei reveals giant new AI chip cluster as Nvidia’s China issues rise

The post Huawei reveals giant new AI chip cluster as Nvidia’s China issues rise appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. A person walks past a display of an Atlas 900 AI cluster at the Huawei stand during the World Artificial Intelligence Conference at the Shanghai World Expo and Convention Center in Shanghai on July 28, 2025. Hector Retamal | Afp | Getty Images BEIJING — Chinese telecommunications giant Huawei announced Thursday new computing systems for powering artificial intelligence with its in-house Ascend chips, as it steps up pressure on U.S. rival Nvidia. The company said it plans to launch its new “Atlas 950 SuperCluster” as soon as next year. The U.S. has sought to cut China off from the most advanced semiconductors for training AI models. To cope, Chinese companies have turned more to grouping large numbers of less efficient, often homegrown, chips together to achieve similar computing capabilities. Under Huawei’s AI computing infrastructure, a supercluster is connected to multiple superpods, which, in turn, are built from multiple supernodes. Supernodes, which form the base, are built on Ascend chips, using system design to overcome technical limitations imposed by U.S. sanctions. Huawei said its new Atlas 950 supernode would support 8,192 Ascend chips, and that the Atlas 950 SuperCluster would use more than 500,000 chips. A more advanced Atlas 960 version, slated for launch in 2027, would support 15,488 Ascend chips per node. The full supercluster would have more than 1 million Ascend chips, according to Huawei. It was not immediately clear how the systems compared with those powered by Nvidia chips. Huawei claimed in a press release that the new supernodes would be the world’s most powerful by computing power for several years. “Huawei’s announcement on its computing breakthrough is well timed with recent increasing emphasis by the Chinese government on self-reliance on China’s own chip technologies,” said George Chen, partner and co-chair, digital practice, The Asia Group.
