MetaMask Integrates Venmo for Crypto Purchases as Co-Founder Launches Consent Token

  • MetaMask now allows U.S. users to buy crypto via Venmo, simplifying transactions for digital wallet users.
  • Dan Finlay’s Consent token focuses on AI ethics and sees higher trading volume on Solana than Base.
  • Venmo expands crypto services, enabling seamless transfers of Bitcoin, Ethereum, and PYUSD within its platform.

MetaMask has introduced a new feature allowing U.S. users to purchase cryptocurrency using Venmo. This update is available through the MetaMask extension and mobile app. Users can link their Venmo accounts as a payment method, simplifying the crypto buying process.  

However, this feature is unavailable in Texas and New York due to state-specific regulations. MetaMask advises users to review transaction fees on Venmo and remember that crypto transfers are irreversible.  

Venmo Expands Crypto Offerings 

Venmo now allows users to send and receive cryptocurrencies, including Bitcoin, Ethereum, and PayPal USD (PYUSD). This addition strengthens Venmo’s position as a crypto-friendly platform.  

The integration with MetaMask provides a seamless experience for Venmo users familiar with digital wallets. By selecting Venmo during the purchase process, users can easily buy crypto without relying on additional payment methods.  

MetaMask co-founder Dan Finlay has launched a new token called Consent ($CONSENT). Built on Solana and Base, the token emphasizes user consent and autonomy in the AI era. It aims to address intellectual property rights and the ethical use of AI training data.  

Finlay describes Consent as an ambiguous consent framework within blockchain and Web3 ecosystems. Despite its availability on both Solana and Base, the token sees higher trading activity on Solana.  

The token’s trading volume on Solana reached $50,010 within five hours of its launch. Solana also offers a higher market value for the token compared to Base.  

The Consent liquidity pool is set up on the Raydium platform, enhancing its usability in Solana’s ecosystem. This dual update from MetaMask and Dan Finlay highlights growing efforts to enhance user experience and ethics in blockchain technology.
