MetaMask co-founder Dan Finley confirmed that the team is still considering issuing a token — but if this happens, the announcement will only be in-app to avoid fraud.
- The token has been discussed since 2021 (as part of the idea of decentralization and DAO)
- The decision depends on the regulatory environment in the United States
- Under the Trump administration, according to Finley, "there will be more legal windows for issuing tokens"
MetaMask is the largest Web3 wallet:
- 30 million monthly active users
- ~500 employees in the team
- Recently implemented support for BTC and Solana, as well as improved UX amid competition with Rainbow and Rabby
