MetaMask, one of the most widely used self-custody crypto wallets, has rolled out a new product called Money Account that combines stablecoin yield, spending and trading in a single interface. The launch is notable for European observers for what it leaves out: according to Cointelegraph, the account is not available in the UK or the EU at launch.
