MetaMask анонсирует революционный стейблкоин mUSD с уникальной интеграцией Translation: MetaMask announces revolutionary stablecoin mUSD with unique integration.

MetaMask will introduce the first non-custodial wallet equipped with its own stablecoin. The developers have announced the launch of a stablecoin named mUSD.

This asset will be issued by the Bridge platform from Stripe, with technological support provided by M0. mUSD will be entirely backed by liquid equivalents of the US dollar—cash and short-term Treasury bonds—on a 1:1 basis.

The initial issuance volume remains unspecified, as do other technical specifics. The developers have promised to reveal these details in the upcoming weeks.

«Our primary focus right now is to ensure the smooth operation of all internal and external technical processes associated with the token,» remarked Zak Abrams, co-founder and CEO of Bridge.

The launch is anticipated for the end of 2025 across Ethereum and Linea networks. Users will be able to fund accounts, store, exchange, and transfer mUSD directly within the wallet interface.

Integration with DeFi protocols is also expected, along with the ability to use the stablecoin via the MetaMask card in locations accepting Mastercard.

Ajay Mittal, the company’s vice president of product, emphasized the unique nature of the mUSD model:

«Unlike other stablecoins that are first issued and then integrated into wallets, mUSD is built into MetaMask from the very start.»

The launch of MetaMask’s stablecoin coincides with the adoption of the GENIUS Act in the USA, which establishes regulations for «stablecoins.»

Recall that last December, the fintech company Ripple received approval to initiate trading of the RLUSD stablecoin. In the first half of the year, the asset’s market capitalization reached $500 million.
