MetaMask will collaborate with CompoSecure and Baanx to launch the "metal card," enabling instant payment with Crypto Assets.

According to Deep Tide TechFlow news on April 29, reported by The Block, MetaMask has partnered with CompoSecure and Baanx to launch the MetaMask "metal card," which is scheduled for global release in the second quarter. This card allows users to make payments directly from their self-custodied MetaMask Wallet without the need for pre-depositing, converting to fiat, or relying on a Centralized Exchange.

All transactions will be authorized through smart contracts within 5 seconds, and users need to hold cryptocurrency on the Linea network. The card is designed to solve the "last mile" problem of cryptocurrency payments, thereby promoting the mainstream application of digital assets. MetaMask previously launched a pilot program in August 2024 and previewed the metal card at the ETHDenver conference in March this year. In addition, the company plans to increase support for Bitcoin and Solana this year.
