According to Odaily, MetaMask has introduced a new blockchain-based debit card in collaboration with payment giant Mastercard and crypto payment specialist Baanx. Initially, the MetaMask card will be available as a limited pilot of several thousand digital cards to users in EU countries and the UK. The distribution is expected to expand later this year, with a full rollout in the EU and UK, and additional pilots in other regions in the coming quarters. The card functions similarly to a typical debit card but allows users to make purchases directly using digital assets stored in their MetaMask self-custody wallets. This feature enables users to maintain control over their funds until the point of payment.
