By default, only the LTS/ESR release of Firefox is unmasked (or marked 
as stable), of which the latest version is 91.10.0, however, if you 
unmask it, you can use the latest Firefox version, currently 101.0.1.
Though unmasking Firefox leads to more frequent rebuilds since the rapid 
release has, well, frequent releases.

As a side note, by default, searching using `emerge --search` does not 
show the available masked versions (not sure if an option exists to 
change that). One option that I recommend is to install app-portage/eix, 
it's a small program that searches (much faster then emerge) available 
packages, and gives more information, in the case of Firefox, it shows 
both the ESR and rapid releases. See the Gentoo Wiki article [0] if you 
want to know more about it.
