<h4><strong>This offering allows MetaMask users to make purchases directly from their self-custodial crypto wallets. </strong></h4> 
<p>It marks a significant step forward in integrating digital assets into everyday financial transactions. Let’s explore more about this important news for Metamask.</p> 
<h5><strong>MetaMask Debuts Crypto Debit Card for Direct Wallet Purchases</strong></h5> 
<p>The MetaMask Card is initially available in a limited pilot phase to a few thousand users in the European Union (EU) and the United Kingdom (UK). During this phase, users can use the card to make purchases with their USDC, USDT, and <a href="https://www.coingecko.com/en/coins/weth" target="_blank" rel="noopener">wETH</a> assets, which are held on the layer-2 network Linea. This allows users to spend their crypto directly from their wallets, without needing to convert it to fiat currency first.</p> 
<p>According to <a href="https://www.mastercard.com/news/perspectives/2024/inside-the-making-of-a-self-custody-web3-card-for-a-web2-world/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Mastercard</a>, this pilot phase is just the beginning. The company plans a broader release of the MetaMask Card later this year, with a “full rollout” in the EU and UK. Additionally, MetaMask aims to expand the pilot to other regions in the coming quarters, bringing this groundbreaking technology to a wider audience.</p>
