Joseph Lubin, founder of Consensys, confirmed that MetaMask will issue a token to support its DeFi initiatives, with the launch potentially happening sooner than expected, though no specific timeline or tokenomics have been disclosed. The platform has experienced significant growth and expansion, including launching a stablecoin and supporting new markets, despite past legal challenges. Market odds for the token's release have fluctuated, and community engagement through point systems may influence its launch.

MetaMask is likely to launch a native token soon, with CEO Joe Lubin hinting it may come earlier than expected, amid regulatory considerations and ongoing development efforts like the Linea layer-2 network and stablecoin mUSD.

Starknet has launched the airdrop for its STRK governance token, with over one million users eligible to claim tokens. Despite a 49% drop in value since going live, STRK has been listed on major exchanges and has a market capitalization of approximately $2 billion. The token allows holders to participate in governance, pay network fees, and stake for consensus. However, Starkware faced criticism for plans to unlock 1.3 billion tokens allocated to early investors just two months after trading began. Despite a sharp drop in network activity following the airdrop announcement, trading volume has shown signs of rebounding.

Starknet, an Ethereum rollup, has distributed 728 million tokens in what is being called the largest airdrop of the year. The token, STRK, began trading at $5 on Kucoin after the airdrop, with a fully diluted value of $35 billion and an actual market cap of $2.32 billion. Starknet aims to scale the Ethereum blockchain using zero-knowledge cryptography and layer-2 technology, and has already amassed nearly $55 million in total value locked since its launch in November 2021.
