The move signals a significant leap forward for one of Ethereum\u2019s most influential structure firms, fresh off a key regulatory victory.<\/p>\n<p> JUST IN: MetaMask maker Consensys selects JPMorgan and Goldman Sachs as lead underwriters for its IPO, per Axios. <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/qxxtn64NoE\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">pic.twitter.com\/qxxtn64NoE<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Cointelegraph (@Cointelegraph) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/Cointelegraph\/status\/1983677780882600052?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">October 29, 2025<\/a><\/p>\n\n<p>Earlier this year, the SEC dropped its lawsuit against Consensys over MetaMask\u2019s staking features, removing one of the final barriers before a potential listing. The company, last valued at around $7Bn in 2022, builds foundational tools for the Ethereum ecosystem, including MetaMask, Infura, and the Linea Layer-2 network.<\/p>\n<p>\n<strong>(Source \u2013 <a class=\"general-link\" href=\"https:\/\/tracxn.com\/d\/companies\/consensys\/__maB_gtCd07ejpTWqrMruZLA42WjhJlnDK7rf1W5Gjyk#about-the-company\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">tracxn<\/a>)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The IPO would give traditional investors a rare opportunity to buy exposure to Ethereum\u2019s expanding ecosystem. Meanwhile, Consensys has doubled down on its Web3 ambitions, reportedly planning to invest $200M into DeFi and yield-generating strategies on Linea. This will further strengthen MetaMask\u2019s integration with on-chain finance.<\/p>\n<p><strong>DISCOVER: <a class=\"general-link\" href=\"https:\/\/99bitcoins.com\/cryptocurrency\/next-100x-crypto\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">10+ Next Crypto to 100X In 2025<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<h2>Will a MetaMask ICO Launch Before the MetaMask Airdrop?<\/h2>\n<p>So far, there\u2019s no official MetaMask ICO, and none confirmed to be coming. Despite years of speculation about a MASK token, Consensys has not announced any sale or token issuance. Instead, attention has shifted toward the ongoing MetaMask Rewards Program, which many believe is laying the groundwork for a future airdrop.<\/p>\n<p>Getting started with MetaMask Rewards is easy.<\/p>\n<p>Just opt-in on mobile and you&#8217;re on your way.<\/p>\n<p> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/wWbJjhBkSO\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">pic.twitter.com\/wWbJjhBkSO<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 MetaMask.eth  (@MetaMask) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/MetaMask\/status\/1983614250993250729?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">October 29, 2025<\/a><\/p>\n\n<p>This reward campaign allows users to earn points for actions such as swapping tokens, bridging assets, and staking directly in MetaMask. The points system has quickly become a talking point among DeFi users, offering rewards such as Linea tokens, fee discounts, and potential eligibility for a MASK airdrop.<\/p>\n<p>While a few domain names, such as claim.metamask.io and gift.metamask.io, have intensified community speculation, Consensys hasn\u2019t confirmed any official airdrop timeline or token details. Analysts expect that if a MASK token does appear, it will take the form of a governance or utility token, launched via a fair distribution rather than a traditional ICO \u2013 aligning with the company\u2019s cautious, regulation-first approach.<\/p>\n<p><strong>DISCOVER: <a class=\"general-link\" href=\"https:\/\/99bitcoins.com\/cryptocurrency\/new-coinbase-listings\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">15+ Upcoming Coinbase Listings to Watch in 2025<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<h2>When Could the MetaMask Airdrop or Token Launch?<\/h2>\n<p>If the MASK token does launch, it could become one of the most anticipated events in DeFi history.

The dual headlines would be strategic: one introduces Consensys to Wall Street, while the other energizes the Web3 community with a fresh token ecosystem. Analysts expect that if a MASK token hits the market, Metamask price volatility could mirror early UNI or ARB surges, as users rush to claim, stake, and trade their rewards.<\/p>\n<p><strong>DISCOVER: <a class=\"general-link\" href=\"https:\/\/99bitcoins.com\/cryptocurrency\/new-binance-listings\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">16+ New and Upcoming Binance Listings in 2025<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><a class=\"general-link\" href=\"https:\/\/discord.gg\/B7Uk6agkqj\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span>Join The 99Bitcoins News Discord Here For The Latest Market Updates<\/span><\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<div class=\"nnbtc-key-takeaways\">\n<h2 class=\"nnbtc-key-takeaways__title\">Key Takeaways<\/h2>\n<p>        JPMorgan and Goldman Sachs to lead Consensys IPO.    <\/p>\n<p>        Is the MetaMask token going to launch before the airdrop?    <\/p><\/div>\n<p>The post <a href=\"https:\/\/99bitcoins.com\/news\/altcoins\/jpmorgan-is-taking-metamask-public-will-metamask-ico-land-before-metamask-airdrop\/\">JPMorgan is Taking Metamask Public: Will MetaMask ICO Land Before MetaMask Airdrop?<\/a> appeared first on <a href=\"https:\/\/99bitcoins.com\/\">99Bitcoins<\/a>.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The MetaMask airdrop narrative is heating up again after fresh reports confirmed that JPMorgan and Goldman Sachs have been brought on to lead Consensys\u2019 initial public offering (IPO).
