Original Title: "Airdrop Imminent: MetaMask Season 1 Points Rewards Interaction Guide"

Original Author: San, Deep Tide TechFlow

On the evening of October 28, MetaMask announced the launch of the "MetaMask Rewards" Season 1 points rewards program.

As a long-established wallet application that has been widely used since the DeFi era, and with previous official MetaMask press releases confirming the upcoming token issuance, news of this event quickly attracted significant market attention.

This MetaMask Rewards event will last for 90 days, distributing over $30 million worth of $Linea token rewards. The accumulated points from this event are highly likely to influence the allocation of MetaMask tokens in the future.

From Wallet to Crypto Financial Hub

The launch of MetaMask's points program is not an isolated event; it comes alongside MetaMask's product iteration towards becoming a crypto financial hub.

As a veteran wallet application, most early investors in the crypto market have used MetaMask to some extent. The familiar fox logo has almost become synonymous with crypto.

However, with more and more wallet applications emerging in recent years and a constant stream of new features, this fox has gradually been abandoned by the market.

Having missed out on the NFT, inscription, and MEME markets, MetaMask has now chosen to embrace Perp DEX, returning to the public eye with a brand-new look.

Currently, after updating to the latest version of MetaMask on iOS, you can find the perpetual contract option in the middle "Trade" tab. It currently supports up to 40x leverage trading, with technical support provided by Hyperliquid. The placement of this feature clearly shows that MetaMask is making Perp DEX the main highlight of this update.

Points Program Interaction Guide

This MetaMask points rewards program only supports participation via mobile devices and is not yet available on the web. Currently, iOS users can update MetaMask in the App Store, while Android users need to wait for the official update.

After updating MetaMask, click the "Rewards" tab in the bottom navigation bar and enter an invitation code to access the MetaMask Rewards event page.

After entering the event page, users can link other addresses to receive historical rewards. MetaMask will provide retroactive rewards for historical trading activities before October 15. For every $1,250 in swap or cross-chain activities, users can earn 250 points, with a maximum of 50,000 points per address. Users with multiple wallets can quickly accumulate a large number of points by linking addresses.

In addition to earning basic points by linking addresses, users can also earn points through the following activities:

1. Token Swaps: Use MetaMask to perform token swap transactions. For every $800 swapped, you can earn 10 points. Using the Linea network will grant double points, and combining with mobile swaps gives a 1.5x multiplier, allowing for up to 3x points.

2. Perpetual Contracts: Users who trade perpetual contracts within MetaMask, such as opening or closing positions, can earn 10 points for every $100 traded.

3. Referring Friends: Invite other users to participate in the points rewards program via an invitation link. Invited users receive double registration points, and for every 50 points earned through trading, the inviter receives a 10-point reward.

At the same time, this event also features a user level mechanism. Participants can visually see their unlocked and pending rewards. By earning points and leveling up, users can gradually unlock limited-time extra point bonuses, perpetual contract fee discounts, and other benefits.

The Fox's Transformation Journey Is About to Begin

As one of the most widely used veteran wallets, MetaMask has always enjoyed a strong reputation in the crypto market. However, missing out on multiple market narratives has put MetaMask at risk of being replaced or eliminated.

Beyond being more user-friendly and streamlined, this update's embrace of Perp DEX and the explicit announcement of token issuance seem to mark the first step in the fox's transformation journey. This points rewards program is also highly likely to trigger another large-scale airdrop event in the crypto market.
