Imagine getting paid just for using your MetaMask wallet. That’s the headline shaking up crypto chatter, MetaMask is launching a Ways to Earn program that hands out points you can swap for LINEA tokens.
Suddenly, just trading and interacting is your new side hustle.
MetaMask is set to introduce a “Ways to Earn” rewards feature, according to MetaMask-Mobile’s GitHub. Users will earn points based on trading volume: 80 points per $100 in spot trades, 10 points per $100 in perpetuals, and 250 points per $1,250 in historical volume. Activities…

History of big trades
Every $100 you trade on spot markets scores you 80 points. Perpetual trades? Those sneak in 10 points per $100. Got a history of big trades?
Boom, 250 points for every $1,250 traded. And because MetaMask is feeling generous, or strategic, trading on the LINEA network doubles your points, yes, double.
It’s like getting two scoops of crypto ice cream when you only ordered one.
This isn’t some vaporware either. The code slipped quietly into MetaMask’s GitHub main branch about three weeks ago. The geeks have spoken, rollout is imminent.
Big players are already getting cozy with LINEA
Don’t get lost in the rumor mill, though. MetaMask put out a reality check, no need to swap or bridge assets just to win rewards, and forget dreaming about full-on yield farming.
This is more about getting the community fired up than turning wallets into money printers.
“Yes, an awards show is coming. But what you’ve heard or seen so far doesn’t necessarily align with what’s actually coming out.”
Season 1 of this reward bonanza is eye-watering, over $30 million worth of LINEA tokens are on the table.
Beyond just trading, you’ll earn points for referrals, some sweet mUSD bonuses, partner rewards, and even VIP treatment for those stuck with MetaMask through thick and thin. Why care about LINEA?
Because MetaMask says double points here, traders listen. Big players like SWIFT are already getting cozy with LINEA, testing it out for cross-border payments alongside giants like BNP Paribas and JPMorgan.
Eligilibity
So what’s the grand plan? MetaMask’s $30M rewards aren’t freebies tossed from a helicopter, they’re strategic seeds planting growth for both wallet and network.
This system rewards actual activity, turning LINEA into a crypto hotspot.
So traders, DeFi fanatics, airdrop hunters, time to sharpen those strategies. The launch could be any day now, and how you play the eligibility and claiming game will make all the difference.
