According to a press release published notably via X this Thursday, August 21, 2025, MetaMask officially launches mUSD, its own stablecoin pegged to the US dollar. This new token based on the US currency, developed with the help of the M0 platform, will be issued by Bridge, a company affiliated with Stripe.

Upon its imminent launch, MetaMask USD will initially be available on Ethereum and on Linea, the layer two solution developed by Consensys, the parent company of MetaMask.

The mUSD thus becomes the first native stablecoin of a self-custody crypto wallet. It will of course be fully integrated into the MetaMask ecosystem through dApps (decentralized applications) and DeFi protocols (decentralized finance).
