- Consensys founder Joseph Lubin announced plans to extend its token strategy beyond Linea and MetaMask to include a token for Infura’s Decentralised Infrastructure Network (DIN).
- The announcement confirms a future MetaMask token and follows the recent launch of Linea’s token and a US$30 million $LINEA airdrop via MetaMask Rewards.
- The overall strategy outlines a unified token-powered economy spanning the Consensys stack: wallet, Layer 2, and developer infrastructure.
Consensys will extend tokens across its stack, moving beyond Linea and MetaMask to Infura’s Decentralised Infrastructure Network (DIN), founder Joseph Lubin said in a post on X.
Lubin said Infura’s token is on the roadmap alongside a MetaMask token and Linea’s $LINEA distribution. This comes as Infura has been shifting toward a decentralised architecture, with work tied to EigenLayer and an early-access program that spreads RPC services across multiple providers.
Across Consensys, we’re building token-powered economies that create positive-sum relationships between users and builders. Starting with Linea, expanding through MetaMask, soon through DIN (Infura’s Decentralized Infrastructure project) – and beyond.
Joseph LubinThe roadmap follows Consensys’ confirmation that a MetaMask token is planned and arrives less than a month after Linea’s token generation event (TGE) and airdrop.

To be more specific, MetaMask is preparing a Rewards Season 1 that will distribute over US$30 million (AU$45.9 million) in LINEA. The team describes it as one of the largest on-chain rewards programs and plans rollout in the coming weeks.
This is just the first step toward a much larger evolution, one that deepens how MetaMask connects, empowers, and rewards its community. The MetaMask token will extend that vision, empowering our community and honoring the OGs who’ve been with us from the start.
Joseph LubinQualifying actions include swaps, bridging, staking, portfolio usage, and referrals. MetaMask lists mUSD incentives, partner perks, and access to tokens, while stating it is “not a farming play.”
It’s essentially a unified token strategy spanning wallet, Layer 2, and developer infrastructure, yet design specifics for new tokens, including supply, distribution mechanics, and governance, were not disclosed. “Look out for something new and impactful every couple of weeks or so in Uptober, November, December and throughout 2026”, Lubin said.
