Reports show mUSD’s market presence has already grown, with a reported market cap of $53 million.
Lubin framed the move as part of a decentralization push that includes MetaMask, Linea and other Consensys projects. How rewards or governance will work — who gets what, or when — has not been published.
MetaMask’s own co-founder, Dan Finlay, has said previously that if a token is launched it would be promoted directly inside the wallet interface.
That approach is meant to reduce confusion and cut down on scams that copy social posts or emails. Reports suggest the team is weighing options such as targeted rewards for active users, but no formal airdrop plan has been announced.
A token from a widely used wallet could reach many people fast. At the same time, that reach raises questions about price swings, user safety, and how regulators will view the move.
Lubin’s comments make a launch sound imminent, but MetaMask has not released token supply numbers, vesting schedules, or precise rules for distribution.
Until those details appear, users and developers will have to watch official MetaMask channels for confirmation.
Based on reports, the next official word will likely come from MetaMask or Consensys itself and not from third-party posts.
