Metamask FDV valuation thresholds one day after launch: the launch hurdle behind the valuation odds

Metamask FDV above which deadline one day after launch: the question behind the price

This is a one-minute closing observation at noon Eastern, not a test of whether the asset ever visits the level that day. A price spike can therefore be irrelevant to the result. In the snapshot checked October 4, 2026 at 09:57 UTC, the focus outcome, $1B, was quoted at 4.5%. ^[1]

FDV values the complete supply. ^[3] Our interpretation is that a high headline valuation can coexist with a small amount of freely available supply. The useful questions are how many units enter trading, who can sell them, and whether buyers support the price after initial distribution. A quoted valuation is not the same as cash raised or proceeds every holder could realize.

MetaMask’s inspected support page says its Rewards program is separate from a MASK token and that it currently has no plans for that token. That is direct issuer evidence, although future decisions could change. ^[4]

Valuation needs both a launch and a price

Requires a qualifying publicly transferable, tradable token launch, then FDV strictly above the selected threshold at 4 p.m. US Eastern on the following calendar day. The most liquid available price source is used. No launch by the stated cutoff produces No. ^[2]

The practical implication for $1B is to distinguish necessary conditions from supporting clues. A plausible explanation can help identify what to investigate, but the outcome still turns on evidence satisfying the specified test. Separate the probability of launch from the conditional valuation after launch; a low combined price does not establish that the token itself will be cheap.

What the other prices and the trading record reveal

Another open condition, $100M, is priced at 4%, a 0.50-percentage-point difference from $1B. Thresholds can be nested: satisfying a harder threshold can also satisfy an easier one. Their prices must therefore be interpreted as separate conditions, not vote shares that automatically sum to 100%. ^[1]

This event recorded $3.33 million in cumulative turnover across its life. The captured record contains 8 eligible open constituent contracts. Those are the scope of this snapshot, not a count of independent forecasters. ^[1]

The next evidence that would change the assessment

For this event, watch the exact Binance pair in the focus contract; the final close of the one-minute candle starting at noon ET; the strict threshold comparison using the source’s precision. ^[2]

The next meaningful update is evidence about the required milestone or measurement. A changed quote by itself does not identify what happened or why. A qualifying launch plus a sustained observable price at the specified measurement time would support the threshold outcome. A delay can defeat the contract before valuation is considered; after launch, more available supply or weaker bids could leave the threshold unmet.
