A number of Twitter accounts claiming to be associated with MASK token airdrop, for example:

Metamask said that no information on the timing of the Airdrop/Snapshot or other associated activity has been disclosed. The community should exercise caution with current information that has been extensively disseminated.

The majority of the material given about Airdrop is bogus information used by crooks for evil reasons or scams.

On the evening of March 26, the Telegram group “eezzy’s diary” published an article on the disclosed inside knowledge. As a result, Metamask has stated that the “snapshot” list for an airdrop will be closed on March 31, and the company plans to launch the MASK token in Q1 of 2024.

This information was shared by an investor using the Twitter handle “serp1337.eth,” and it soon spread to over 768,000 individuals, attracting the attention of the financial community.

The current reports may be related to a fireside chat session with ConsenSys CEO and Ethereum co-founder Joe Lubin on March 14 at ETHDenver 2023, where he repeated his company is actively trying to decentralize MetaMask. Afterward, he revealed that they planned to introduce a token.

Although the project has ruled out an immediate airdrop, several members of the community have expressed anticipation that one would take place. This demonstrates the allure of this outstanding dApp project.
