Zksync Era Mainnet launch

[GEMIN_M4]

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.

[tvplus006]

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?

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.

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.

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.

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.

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 and doing Swap and Mint NFTs and make transactions through Checkout feature and exchanges, Just head to Zksync Ecosystem 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.

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.

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 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

[yhiaali3]

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.

[slashz9]

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.

[hd49728]

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

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

so whoever did not participate in Zksync network can do something Bridge via zkSync bridge and doing Swap and Mint NFTs and make transactions through Checkout feature and exchanges, Just head to Zksync Ecosystem 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.

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.

[safar1980]

zkSync 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.

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.

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.
