Zksync ERA is here

[WalkerIVIV]

Any updates now on Zksync ERA, I think the hype was already done to these new layer-2 networks after Arbitrum did an airdrop to its community, Zksync started to grow and gained a lot of users because a lot of people expecting an airdrop to this network but then again it seems the hype is already done about these layer 2 networks due to because of new trends like meme coins, lol.

i think it due to the fact that converting ethereum to zksync era requires so much money that everyone just outright don't try the retroactive airdrops, but it's indeed true though, zksync getting overshadowed by arbitrum with their massive meme coin airdrops, quite literally arbitrum airdrops claimer gets airdrop from meme coin everyday.

I don't think you'll get scam on this airdrop regarding zksync unless you are interacting on sites that aren't the real one or some sort of phishing sites. There's no guarantee if you could be eligible on the airdrop and that's a fact so it's still a gamble if you're going onto it.

zksync era being scam is very unlikely but as you said, there are still rumours in regard of the airdrop, nothing official coming out from the team, but what should be of concern in this case is the gas fee required for following airdrops, that'll drain your money.

if that is the issue then what is the sense of joining airdrop and spending time and effort if all your gains will go to Gas Fees etc.?
I think that this would be the reason why we must prevent or at least think twice before dealing with them.
but its fine for the hunters to deal with as they are use to it and frustrations isn't part of their thinking ,but I must admit that this is being shill for the last couple of months.

it's even still unclear whether the team gonna actually make an airdrops though, so basically if one pays the gas fee about $60 for just bridging their asset over to zksync era, then that'll be massive lose.
not to mention the fact that zksync is also affected in term of gas price in their blockchain which before even reached more than $10 when ethereum is at its peak in term of gas fee.
if the token isn't gonna having an airdrop and instead the team decided to make sale like sui then it'll be massive lose for everyone that has interacted with the zksync ecosystem.
i'd say only interact if you got money to spare, since it's gonna be costly. otherwise there's always risk that all the money wasted on fee aren't getting back.

You should not rush to test Zksync ERA when the gas price is high, otherwise your financial expenses may exceed the profit from a possible airdrop. Moreover, we are unlikely to see this airdrop this year. So we have plenty of time to perform activities in this network.

People paid way higher gas fees during the uniswap airdrop, do you not know how much some people burn on transaction fees and the outcome of their airdrop? Those people who interact with uniswap dex back then where ready to pay higher gas fees more than the transaction. All of them where compensated according to the weight of their transaction fees.
i believe same thing applies to most of these airdrops, the more you interact the more will be your reward, you can not expect to have similar reward if you put in $1 and someone who put in $100.
Good thing is interaction is not compulsory so you can decide not to participate at all,  so far the zksync team didn't deny the possibility of having an airdrop either, everything is under speculations at the moment.

just converting ethereum to era ethereum requires really high fee, i wonder if this actually kind of defeats the purpose of these L2 in general, the fee for converting is high enough that before jumping in to their ecosystem, we already losing money.

Go from polygon/arbitrum/optimsm to zksync era, you will pay much less.

If you don't have funds on these chains either than use instant swap services like simpleswap to convert from whatever you have available (I recommend this because it has low minimum transfer amount compared to others and supports plenty coins/tokens).

sounds like good solution and also fee required is significantly reduced but i wonder if there is ever gonna be an airdrop of zksync, will it be counted, we all know arbitrum airdrop also counting point from the fact that some address use the official bridge of converting their ethereum. maybe this won't be counted but regardless though it saved a lot of money indeed.

still it would cost a lot of money if the ethereum is already in ethereum blockchain, sending ethereum would also cost of money, i think once ethereum already in ethereum blockchain there is no other way to move to the layer 2 without paying the highly expensive gas fee.

[libert19]

...but i wonder if there is ever gonna be an airdrop of zksync...

I am quite sure there will be zksync token (I read in their discord a long back that there will be token), without token it just seems bland.

[disconnectme]

I think it is time some of these L2 chains be bold enough to start using their tokens to pay gas, everything here depends on the price of Ethereum, the transaction fee of both ZKSync and Arbritum was higher than $1 to send transactions, and this is crazy and not what was promised, I heard Starknet is looking to use its own native tokens for transaction fee this will be great. There is no need for all these new L2's if they can't provide better solutions than what we currently have, Polygon is cheaper to use than ZKsync crazy, isn't it?

[tvplus006]

We all hope for this too) But until we receive official information from the team that the snapshot has been taken and the airdrop date has been approved, we can only assume that everyone who deserves it will receive the airdrop. But I think there will be no airdrop before 2024.

[ElmedoRator]

The excitement in the community after the ARB and ID airdrop is completely understandable. So speculations about a next airdrop named Zksyn are expected by everyone and are completely reasonable. As it becomes more difficult to monetize airdrops, having projects like this distribute to airdrop users a huge amount of rewards really boosts and explodes the community. However, you should also refrain from excitement, such as not going through FOMO, by simply doing enough according to the requirements of the projects set out on the mainnet and watching the announcements related to the project. In addition, you should also pay attention to allowing your wallet permission to follow other airdrops because you may be lost by crooks.

no one knows for sure, even the team hasn't confirmed yet, it could be like arbitrum where they just outright give massive allocation for airdrops, or like sui where they suddenly change their course and went full IEO which is ridiculous, hopefully it will be like arbitrum.

that's still long way to go then, maybe the team are more concentrating in building their infrastructure.
it seems zksync is still lacking in that regards even though it's already better than some of its competition.

[RussianEnglishTranslation]

Zksync is coming sooner or later, days ago they have released their ZKsync ERA which is their Mainnet, if you want to qualify for this airdrop, you will have to do some transactions on the Mainnet too, I know some have done a lot of transactions on the testnet and the zksync 1.0 lite version, remember that this is the Mainnet, Bridge your wallet to the Miannet and start doing some transactions before its too late, ZKsync will be bigger than Arbitrum airdrop.

It should be bigger, yes. You can get the zkSYNC airdrop by performing tasks on Zealy io. There are also bounty tasks for other projects like Lamina1, Q Blockchain, and Layer0.

[raidarksword]

I thinkg Zksync will also be successful like ARB and SUI for past months and of course it is also hard to qualify to an airdrop now because users will spend more money on gas and transactions on Zksync network which gives also a great potential to be able to be eligible in the upcoming airdrop criteria. So, lucky are those who already made lots of transactions and early supporters that will surely will be big benefactor of it.

Point of correction, not everyone who engaged during the testnet mainnet activities will receive a huge amount of airdrop. Not everyone get the same allocation in arbitrum, same will apply to zksync. There are many people have never done any bridge using the zksync mainnet, but they make the loudest noise.
If the zksync should announce their airdrop criteria you will be surprise the number of wallet that will be eligible, and that will get a huge amount.

[tvplus006]

...If the zksync should announce their airdrop criteria you will be surprise the number of wallet that will be eligible, and that will get a huge amount.

I think that the criteria by which airdrop will be accrued will be similar to the distribution that we saw on the Arbitrum. Accordingly, those who have made more transactions in this network and interacted with a large number of contracts will receive the maximum airdrop.

Do you have any links or legit sources about their airdrop? Its quite regretful that i had missed out that Arbitrum airdrop.

Did make out some searches about the drop and i do found these things.

I might try to do those usual bridging tasks in regarding about transactions.
Hope that this one would really be that able to be ending up the same with that ARB free money.
