For everyone's info, the zksync Era Mainnet has been launch few days back. Yes, they already deployed their network and has invited a lot of users. To try out dapps on their ecosystem.

Here is a tweet on details by their official account.

https://twitter.com/zksync/status/1639251218349576192?t=f9eW1GjVxsPHdkOZhckB6A&s=19

Ive gained some arbitrum airdrop and now zksync is here dont want to miss a huge allocation for different activity on this one.

So Im sharing this too for those who missed the airdrop. Ive seen some dapps built on their network already supported them like mintsquare, orbiter finance and syncswap but there are more. What we should do is interact on these dapps as possible to be eligible on potential airdrops like zksync. Also you can share some you have tried. Maybe I didnt chrck that out yet.

thank you for the information, but an airdrop like this requires capital, so people who want to participate must use capital, but when you look at a project like this, people shouldn't doubt it anymore.
but for those who want not to use modal then they will skip this, i guess i will join this time.

CMC already listed it.

Can we start to predict how much marketcap for zksync compared with arb? as far as i know if zksync raised even more compared with ARB. Vitalik and ethereum foundation are also supporting it directly. Will it probably 4x marketcap compared with arb?

As you can see that people who are depositing their funds to the zkmainnet is increasing drastically since the launch of zksync mainnet. I hope we will be eligible together by doing retrodrops.

I have tried syncswap and orbiter. these dapps already planned to do airdrop in the future.

This causes many people to gradually return to participate in the search for opportunities to receive similar free coins. I've seen this excitement these days, but basically I don't think it's necessary for people to be expecting too much with the airdrop, because the greater the competition, the less chance people will receive. , there will be many different criteria to select the satisfied users. After many large airdrops from the market, I realized that sometimes we just need to use it normally on the ecosystem without any complications, and don't expect too much that we will receive the airdrop.

Well Im just sharing, no one really force to join this, but one should sacrifice fund for gas fee if you want to join, or any funds needed for the criteria herein. Thats the thing about airdrop, its unknown when or what the criteria would be. Good for you if youll join.

Im not sure about that but considering they raised more funds and vitalik affiliation with it, might see some big numbers on it.

We will definitely be surprise with the criteria, and lets just hope using too much dapps like those you mentioned will increase our chance for that. I like syncswap btw, very intuitive dex platform

OP, are you reading my mind or something? Lol I just created a topic about Zksync not too long ago then I came across yours, good one, I have problem doing some transactions after the successful bridge, I was asked to use ZIGZAG dex to make some transactions but the platform is misbehaving, do you have a better Zksync dex where I can do some trade?

Those that have missed the arbitrum airdrop like me, this is another project that has gathered a lot of funding and they'll also be releasing an airdrop soon.
I don't know if the snapshot was already done to test them and other details about it but since op has shared it, it's time for you guys to know more about it.
There's always these projects that are attracting users because eventually they're gonna get some users to test their network as they launch their mainnet.
But as said, it's not about forcing to get into it but just some sharing if ever wants to try it.

In addition to this, they will check below points

1. Number of total transactions. (Eg: Swaps, Bridging, LP Provide, Supply, and Borrow)
2. Volume of the transactions
3. Gitcoin Donation (via Zksync ERA network)
4. Buy nfts from the marketplaces

After arbitrum now comes Zksync which will receive great attention from airdrop hunters, and I also just happened to read some information about zkSync announcing that after 3 days mainnet has more than 100k wallets using bridge. This is indeed an impressive number and this is a fomo about future airdrop opportunities, basically I believe that for hard-working and serious users there will be a chance to receive an airdrop.

The problem.is we don't know if the snapshot have been taken already, the new zksync era didn't come with token in mind but I am not trusting the companies that says such thing because arbitrum said they will not release any token until they eventually did, it's not the end if I lose this airdrop, this space never runs dry of opportunity, when a door closes another door will open.

The point is that you really researched it before joining, it's very early to talk about airdrop as they just made the mainnet announcement a few days ago. And now that all users have a chance in the future, I think at least by the end of the year or next year we will know who meets the criteria.
So if you're looking for opportunities, there's still plenty of time for you to do the things you think will meet the airdrop.

I have been following this project for a long time. I hope that here I will have a chance to get an airdrop. Because the arbitration did not have time. But this requires finance.

he's right mate, at the time of the snapshot no one knows and of course he has the conditions to be selected as an airdrop recipient member. I think to take part in the airdrop by using all the features in the project the criteria for swap, bridge, add Lp requires cold money which later beyond this expectation can become a treasure

After getting the allocation from the Arbitrum Airdrop, I think everyone is starting to understand the concept in order to qualify for several airdrops that do require capital. In zksync, I have rotated for a long time, because they migrated from Zksync to Zksync Era, which is a concept that is not much different. Do more bridging Eth assets L1 to L2. Do Pool/add liquidity in several. But keep in mind that taking Snapshots is always a question and their eligibility is kept secret.

On Twitter we can find several threads for those who want to try playing on the Zksync network both the mainnet and the testnet. One of them here https://twitter.com/MingoAirdrop/status/1638178685999271940

Apart from that, this year Arbitrum started a surprising airdrop, thus encouraging more networks to hold airdrops with a concept that is not much different. If we look at Nansen, he has shown his plans to add $ZKS tokens to his portfolio.
https://i.ibb.co/1v8b5Yh/image.png

Thus we should do it now or later we gonna miss a chance of a bigger allocation. Surely in my opinion they consider those transactions from zklite and some testnet. But I think trying out the mainnet is their biggest criteria since they are gonna use the official network hence seeing a lot of increase on transactions and bridging. Well I do hope zksync do much better than arbitrum if they announced it.

I saw a potential airdrop on this on twitter but I'm sure only people with the cash to enter this event have to burn money on the Eth network's transaction fees which are always high, but whoever tries it might get lucky and maybe not, it's kind of like a gamble maybe we don't become part of the airdrop after we burn our money there and maybe we become part of the aiddrop and can return the money that was burned, besides worrying that their tokens have never been released and we've burned money in vain, good luck to those who give it a try at least do a bridge on their site

Some people have started moving their funds over to the Zksync chain wanting to farm the airdrop. I have a feeling it will take a lot of activities to qualify for this airdrop this time around, looking at the rate at which $ARB airdrop was farmed, other teams would have learned from this and will want to effect changes to their qualification process. I will advise people to use at least twice monthly until they announce their airdrop or even provide liquidity if you have funds when uniswap or any of these big dapps moved to the chain

OP , I 'm interested in this but to be honest I 'm not used to this kind of thing . can you give me some info on the minimum amount of funds to do all the tasks to qualify and get a prize?
and what tasks need to be done?

Usually bridging and doing some transaction to qualify, and you’ll only need some funds for the fees, though as per them it may take a year before the airdrop and it is still not sure. The hype for the airdrop goes wild again after the $ARB airdrop so for sure the hype will continues. There are also other project who rumored to have their airdrop as well, that can be a good one to look for as well.

Zynswap happened to be a prominent project I have been following for the past two years now, so I wouldn't want to miss out on its airdrop reward like I did miss out on Arbitrum. An awesome thanks to you OP

This could be another potential big airdrop, so many are rushing now to do some transaction on their network and be qualify.
There's an instruction for this, make sure to follow those instructions. I'm just saving for my gas fee capital and will surely try all the possible airdrop because I don't want to miss this one just like in $ARB. Is there any main thread for the possible AIRDROP? This can be a big help.

it seems like its gonna be a big thing, even though there's not necessarily any news in regard of airdrop but they'd still airdrop some of the token anyway. I think with the funding that it's got it indeed could become the next arbitrum. lets just see how it goes a year from now.

Yes, they recently launched their main network and the community started talking about interacting with their bridge to increase the chances of getting an airdrop. Eventually, those same users broke that bridge because of an influx of transactions and it didn't work for a while. Now everything seems to be back to normal, so if someone hasn't done some swaps in their meinnet yet, you better do it.

Thank you for sharing this information here, before the launch of Zksync Era, Zksync lite has been launched, and this is good information for the community who wants to try all the dapps in the Zksync ecosystem, I saw several Cex exchanges providing ETH withdrawal services on the Zksync network, you can check it out on MEXC and hopefully those in this thread get the Airdrop we hope for in the future

We never can tell how this particular project results will turn out, it's either we gaining in large quantities or lesser, but we shouldn't overhype the project if we want to stay profitable. I'm not expecting more because I'm calculated my risks involved. It's good news to be among the early sets that will strive tasks in the network inother to be given a slot for accumulation of airdrops. $ARB brought passive income to traders, this one is not an exception because I'm ready to do whatever it takes to gain airdrops in full.

Yes I see you already started to move. I think this will be bigger than arbitrum not with just the fact but all those dapps are clearly working for zksync and more than arbtirum potentials. Well we just need to keep it doing until they announce the peanut.

You see why arb gets so much attention during their announcement it was because overhype. Pretty thanks to them zksync its gonna do better than that. Check out figures might blow your mind with what its coming.

What kind of snapshot can we talk about if the Zksync Era network was launched 2 days ago? It must be remembered that the snapshot is performed for airdrop in order to record the interaction of a certain wallet on the network. I think it will take a long time until the Zk sincere team announces the upcoming airdrop.

After arbitrum airdrop have several potential airdrop become the next arbitrum and many people predicting about Zksync has potential following how success from arbitrum, my friend have joined with this airdrop network and spent much fees for swapping in Zksync. True or not will be potential at the future just waiting for and usually after have bigger airdrop reward from network like arbitrum need waiting longer time for new potential airdrop like arbitrum.

I hope for all people have joined with Zksync and spent much fees for swapping there get back their fees fund and Zksync reward higher than arbitrum, but there are not guarantee with Zksync will get higher reward later because waiting for longer time mainnet update and reward for qualifying participants will distribution.

Well first of all thanks for the heads-up OP. I have already seen in a few telegram channels, that a lot of people have already started to use the zksync blockchain because they are expecting that the team behidn the project will also do an airdrop similar to those that arbitrum did. So a lot of people are bridging some funds to zksync now. Doing swaps there or even providing liquidity on some of the Dexes that are all popping up on that chain already.
Some of those Dexes are already dead again and i have to say i am not a big fan of that airdrop farming. If you look a bit around then you will find a lot of twitter channels that are only airdrop hunting.
I have to admit, that the Arbitrum airdrop brought a lot of money to a lot of people, but i doubt that this will also be true for zksync. The Arbitrum airdrop attracted probably thousands of new airdrop hunters so the next few of those airdrop will not really be attractive anymore in my opinion.

Many say on Twitter just take advantage of it from now on after zksynch ERA launched its mainnet it seems we still have a long time even though we don't know when the snapshot will occur just don't do it in a short time it will make sybil detected by them.

We expect the same and these expectations are higher than Arbitrum should be but we don't know in the future after they announce it, as more often doing L1 to L2 will have a much bigger potential to win the airdrop allocation.

arbitrum really has changed the tide of airdrop trend, right now it's really trendy nowadays, many are also jumping into the airdrop trend, but I doubt the next airdrop will also be huge, surely allocated amount of airdrop will stay the same while participant significantly increased. just like many says, that could only means, less airdrop than arbitrum but I guess that's just my 2 cents.

I also heard that a lot has made free money out of the Arbitrum airdrop. I think I didn't qualify because I didn't use their platform. I'm also not updated with what's the latest in the altcoin community nowadays.

Thank you for sharing this zksync update. I have stumbled upon this many times but I got no idea what it is or what they are actually contributing to the crypto community. But I guess it is worth looking into. I haven't been following the new DApps in the market lately. This could be interesting to check. 

Since they got testnet and zklite working, I think they are gonna do snapshots on these as well but we can assume that mainnet is more important when it comes to use case for them, so interact on mainnet frequently. Since we can only speculate with the process, but judging from the rmmainnet release, it would take time to know the airdrop announcement maybe next year.

Yes just head on the official twitter post of zksync and youll fins there the links of their webpage, they have list of updated and active dapps for us to interact.

Interacting with their main net and do transactions regularly as well as some other activities like adding liquidity, minting NFTs on their main net are good activities to be recorded for their airdrop. I believe adding liquidity will be important to get higher airdrop with Zksync ERA as cheaters don't spend money to add liquidity.

Interacting with active dApps on Zkysync and some bridges are other good activities proactively for their future airdrop.

Next year is too long and I think they will announce airdrop in coming months, before the end of 2023. They must make noise, expose Zksync to as many investors through airdrop, news as possible and must have enough time for market to absorb tokens dumped by airdrop receivers. It takes a few months to finish before 2024 bull run which likely starts after Bitcoin halving in April or May.

I think the strategy of participating for the chance to receive the airdrop will be similar to that of Arbitrum, with regular experience and activity on the mainnet, I think everyone will have a chance to receive the airdrop.
But don't expect too much and fomo according to the news on social networks, I see that people are spreading a lot of different information related to the Zksync airdrop.

I have high interest in Zksync, I plan to buy this token for the coming months may be in thousands of dollars, I do have a question about the airdrop, how much do you think is good enough to add liquidity to a pool to get a good amount of airdrop reward? If you can say this it means you are practicing it, am I right? So how much liquidity do you add?

Thank you sir for the information, for those who are behind on Airdrop Arbitrum then it is highly recommended to try Airdop zkSync which in my opinion also has the potential to provide quite a large reward, maybe more than the last Airdrop Arbitrum.
However, this time Airdrop requires some capital to carry out all its duties so that it can be elegible to become an Airdrop participant, I might ask you for advice, how much minimum money must be spent to carry out this Airdrop and maybe if you have a safe and effective strategy for so that it's easier and doesn't take up too many transaction fees because we realize that the Etherium network is quite expensive, please share the tips to make it simpler.

Given the fact that  zkSync Lite still exists in addition to zkSync Era, is it worth using both of these networks to get an airdrop? It is possible that the team will issue 2 tokens, as this is planned to be done in Arbitrum One and Arbitrum Nova. In this case, you will need to perform twice as many interactions on the network.

You can add a Zksync network using chainlist
https://chainlist.org/

Two bridges. The first one is official, but the second one works faster. Better to use both bridges for possible airdrop
https://bridge.zksync.io/
https://www.orbiter.finance/?source=Ethereum&dest=zkSync%20Era


2 swap projects in the Zksync Era ecosystem. The first project promises its token
https://syncswap.xyz/   
https://mute.io

Fast ecosystem, but so far there are very few tokens for trading and liquidity is large only on Ethereum/USDTC pairs

such good opportunities for getting the airdrops, even though the news regarding it was still rumour but considering the fact that same platform all have held some airdrop it's almost obvious that they'd do the same.
airdrops are really effective ways of advertising when it comes to L2 considering the fact that they'd needed that to strive further.

The news of every big airdrops are always a rumor, you don't have to wait till it became a reality because it will be too late already, I hope this Zksync creates a better buying opportunity, Arbitrum doesn't look like it will go under a dollar, be in position and wait for thousands of dollars.

There are no prerequisites for the fact that you will have such an opportunity to buy Zksync in the coming months, since there is no exact information anywhere when the coin will be released. Accordingly, there is no point in providing liquidity for an indefinite period, thereby freezing part of the deposit.

For those that don't know. If you bridge to Zksync Lite you will have to pay some $1.30 USD activiation fee before you can make a transaction. Most likely they are doing this to weed out the farmers who abuse the airdrop. You can't do much with ZkSync Lite however, its like Bitcoin blockchain pretty much. You can perhaps trade on ZigZag but the spread is large and the fees are almost $0.50 per trade, compared to other Defi this is expensive.

ZkSync Era is new and haven't used many Dapps yet however hopefully it'll chain in the near future. Right now you can't even withdraw from exchanges like Bybit on the ZySync network. Only way is to bridge and that can get very expensive, espeically if you are just trying to farm and get the airdrop.

The airdrop trend is still quite hype. Before the arbitrum there were many airdrops that generate such as Optimism. Users must interact and test their platform with a number of transactions that must be made in order to be selected as an airdop recipient. Look at how busy transactions Zksync and some other chains are currently, this is a result of the wave of airdrops that are returning to demand, but in a few months this wave will decrease.

zkSync will be the next mega airdrop for this year, and it is good that there are airdrops such as blur and ARB that have been launched and their participants have made thousands of dollars, so the opportunity to participate in zkSync is still available and has not ended yet, so whoever did not participate in Zksync network can do something Bridge via zkSync bridge (https://portal.zksync.io/bridge) and doing Swap and Mint NFTs and make transactions through Checkout feature and exchanges, Just head to Zksync Ecosystem (https://ecosystem.zksync.io/) as there are hundreds of projects from DeFi to NFTs built on zkSync, my guess is participants still have 6-12 months to qualify, so do your research, And you can participate in zkSync lite and zkSync Era Mainnet (L2), they are two separate networks so that you get the most points and a good amount of airdrop tokens when they launch it.

yes I guess that's the strategy in making their chain more crowded with everyone that tries to get the airdrop, after all had they revealed the requirements surely many are gonna do just that, but without revealing, many will use their chain frequently. mainly because they have no idea, just like arbitrum.

IMO, if you are willing to spend on their ecosystem, there is no need to hope too much about the airdrop issue. I'm not sure everyone will qualify for their usage, but it's true for me that everything that has happened with Arbitrum makes me see why so many people try to use multiple wallets and end up not responding. met any criteria, and instead used normally on a regular basis to great effect. That's why I encourage anyone looking for an opportunity with the Zksync airdrop to consider it as it's a very expensive experiment, so don't waste your time or money on things. It just depends on luck.

The issue is that right now. There isn't much you can do on their network. Many of the dapps there are with test net tokens. Who wants to trade with test net tokens? Probably not worth anyones time. I think if they add some large NFT platform OR large Defi exchange with good liqudity then many people will use it.

However now their ZigZag exchange is not good for large trades because you loose too much in fees and in spread. Since Era is new, I think many Dapps will add it to its network and it'll be more widely used. However in my opinion I think the airdrop is probably over a year away and by then there might be more use for it.

Ethereum Scaling Solution zkSync Era (https://coingape.com/ethereum-scaling-solution-zksync-era-mainnet-malfunctioned-resumes-block-production-after-4hrs/) Mainnet Malfunctioned, Resumes Block Production After 4Hrs

According to transaction data on zkSync Era Block Explorer, no blocks were produced on the zkSync Era mainnet blockchain from 01:52 AM to 6:02 AM CET on April 1. Several users reported pending transactions on zkSync Era, claiming the blockchain is down.

It's a retroactive airdop so it's noteworthy to mention that you need funds to try out dapps on mainnet and you're somewhat funding your own airdop with the fees generated. Don't farm the airdop like your life depends on it but use those dapps when you really need to so that when you're rewarded it will really be worth it

I just heard yesterday from a member here on the forum about zksync network, it looks like an interesting project, I haven't tried it yet but it would be interesting to try.

It seems that the project is generating a lot of buzz and it is expected that the airdrop of the project will be as important as the ARB airdrop.

these airdrops are targeted for those that really wanna utilize the blockchain itself, considering right now the zksync blockchain is fully functional there's also many swaps platform etc existing in the blockchain itself, someone that frequently using swap platform in ethereum could easily switch over to the zksync and might gain airdrops later on.
i always assumed that retroactive airdrops are always those that utilize the platform for real and basically take advantage of what L2 really offers rather than ethereum and sees which one better, native or the L2 solutions.

I've tried to do what was done to meet the requirements, but in my opinion the transactions here are the same and can even be said to be slow, then the fee is quite expensive for one transaction, I thought it would be cheaper, it turns out it's not much different from ETH.

They raised very huge fund and with a latest trend to airdrop on users who explore and use new chains, layers, products, it's possibly that Zksync will follow the trend and make another Mega airdrop.

In fact this trend is not new and in the past bull run, it was invented by Uniswap. Uniswap airdrop, lesson for the industry (https://dune.com/blog/uni-airdrop-analysis)

To use those services which are on Ethereum blockchain with expensive transaction fee, it it not feasible for everyone. They must choose good times to make on-chain transactions and configure default Gwei to lower value for cheaper transaction fee.

It's annoying that some services don't accept customized Gwei value.

zkSync (https://twitter.com/WuBlockchain/status/1642343803444170757?) explained the reason of stopping blocks: The database for the block queue failed, causing block production to halt. The database health alert did not trigger because it could not connect to it to collect metrics. At the time of the incident, the entire team were around 2 am. The fix was implemented within 5 minutes.

There are still a lot of bugs on the Zksync chain, sent Ethereum on the chain but could not locate it on their explorer and also not in my wallet, it is more than 3 hours now and still can't find the token. I will advise people moving funds on the chain to be very careful, people only talk about the airdrops but do not mention the risk people incur testing new chains with their funds. I just hope this fund appears soon in my wallet

It's better if you are reading carefully before trying to get into what you didn't even understand it. Zksync had delay mechanism that will be letting withdrawal through its official bridge to occer after 24 hours. that means if you are using official bridge and your fund will be deposited after 24 hours or even more depending on how the situation of ethereum blockchain at that time.

Airdrop for new blockchain networks nowadays seems overrated. I believe that when zksync will do some airdrop, maybe the amount or cost of it will now be low compared to previous airdrops like Arbitrum or Aptos.
We still don't know what will be the basis of zksync airdrop, some are telling by a number of transactions, and some are by the total amount transacted. We will never know.

We will never know but projects can do airdrop for nothing. They can simply do airdrop without task or with simple tasks to bounty hunters in bounty campaigns.

Airdrops with secret criteria related to on-chain transactions are good for their chains and their services because those transactions will be reflected on the public ledgers. Stats are real and stay there forever and it is helpful for impressive starting stats of their chains and services.

Value of executed transactions can be counted but I don't think it will be too important. Basically it is hard to convince people to put their money at risk on a new platform, new centralized service, lock in staking pool and more reasons. Amount of successful transactions is main condition for airdrop snapshot I think so.

It is expensive, because the network was attacked by bots, and the commissions do not go down even on weekends. Many people now, on the back of the success of Arbitrum caught the hysteria and rushed to perform all these activities. Videos on Zksync Era have flooded all over YouTube, Telegram is full of different guides. So it's not surprising that this network has been experiencing problems since the launch of Mainnet. Everyone is trying to get this drop, cheat farms are not sleeping either and contribute to the instability of the network.

Keep calling it rumor my fried but once it gonna be real and you will cry becuase you will not able to get it for free. Zksync was just launched last weeks and you are still having opportunity. Keep buying the tokens that already given to the airdrop hunters.
If you can get it for free and then why don't you even try to get it instead of wasting your money to be used to buy it?
