Aptos' air drop wealth creation effect has triggered a large number of public chain air drop fever, and various Airdrop accounts and forecasts have also come. This is a popular online map, sourced from @ WagameEth. Today, we will mainly talk about the background, air drop and interaction of zkSync. First, the conclusion is that air drop is time-consuming, labor-intensive and requires toughness. No project party has 100% obligation to air drop to you, including our participation in the test network, In fact, they work for the project side in disguised form. Some bosses default or do not pay wages, and some bosses give you big red packets when they come up. Compared with ordinary protocols, public chain is an option with high probability and quality of empty investment in this industry.
This online conjecture map is similar to the previous Optimism rules. In general, zkSync may carry out air drop by class according to the depth of users' behaviors on the chain. Users need to consider cost calculation and quantity control in the process of interaction, because the cost of accounts executed according to high standards also means that they are very high. If the air drop rules are not met in the end, they will face losses. PS Generally, the judgment basis for whether a project or public chain has the air drop expectation or the air drop potential is: Financing scale - whether it is qualified to buy users Does the token economics or official statement mention airdrop Product first, then currency issuance - it is possible to trace air drop Underlying/universal solutions - a large number of users and developers are required to build an ecosystem What is zkSync? ZkSync is a two-layer expansion solution of Ethereum based on zk Rollup. It belongs to the Layer2 track with Arbitrum and Optimism, but its difference lies in that the larger Layer2 ecological Arbitrum and Optimism on the market are based on Optimal Rollup. What are the differences between the two: Zk Rollup - Zero Knowledge Proof Optimistic Rollup - Fraud Proof Let's briefly talk about the differences between the two schemes. Basically, the two schemes are opposite in logic. For example, zk does not trust all verifiers at all, and verifies the results one by one through zero knowledge proof, while Optimistic uses fraud proof. In principle, it chooses to trust everyone and waits for others to raise objections. That is to say, Optimistic is a loose verification mechanism, This reduces the complexity of verification and calculation. It assumes that as long as there is a verifier working correctly, this scheme is feasible. From the perspective of stakeholders, this is also true. This is like having a POS asset, and you naturally don't want it to go wrong. However, in terms of technical and logical preciseness, zk seems more rigorous, but the development difficulty and cycle are relatively long, which is why Arbitrum and Optimism took the lead in opening the market of Layer2 ecology. Financing ZkSync was founded by German company Matter Labs, which is committed to expanding Ethereum. It began to study the zkSync solution in December 2019 and released zkSync v1.0 in June 2020. Up to now, Matter Labs has received four rounds of financing and support. It raised 2 million dollars in the seed round financing in September 2019, In the A-round financing in February 2021, 6 million US dollars were raised from cryptographic companies such as Binance, Aave, Curve and Coinbase Ventures. In the November 2021 round B financing, a16z Crypto will lead the investment, and other investors include Placeholder, Dragonfly and 1kx, as well as Blockchain. com and Crypto Com, Consensys, ByBit, OKEx, Alchemy, Covalent and other strategic partners, as well as more than 70 founders or executives from AAVE, Paraswap, Lido, Futureswap, Gnosis, Rarib, Aragon, Liquidy, Celer Network, Connext, Perpetual Protocol, Euler, Opium and other projects. In January 2022, the company received another $200 million of BitDAO support.
Time schedule Reset 2.0 test network on October 25 Reset the transaction history, token balance and ask the developer to redeploy the contract. This is only applicable to the zkSync 2.0 test network and will not affect zkSync 1.0. October 28 Baby Alpha At this stage, zkSync 2.0 will be launched on the main network without external projects, mainly for stress testing and a number of safety work. Developers cannot access the main network, but they can continue to migrate and develop on the test network. Fair Launch Alpha in Q4 At this stage, developers can migrate and develop on the main network, but the system will still be closed to external users. Full Alpha at the end of the year It is open to all users, including the network, documents and tutorials.
When ICO?
In the latest official article, zkSync will begin to decentralize its power after Q1 2023, which is also the closest time to coin issuance predicted by the market.
Interactive process arrangement Currently, zkSync has two network versions: The zksync 1.0 main network can be used, and you need to recharge with a real ETH Zksync 2.0 test network, leading water faucet The difference between the two networks is that zksync 1.0 is not friendly enough for EVM compatibility. Although the main network has been launched, there are not many applications in the ecosystem. However, zkEVM of zksync 2.0 can basically achieve full EVM compatibility. Therefore, the future ecology of zksync 2.0 main network may directly target Arbitrum and Optimism. At present, the TVLs of these two Layer2 are around 1B.
Therefore, at the interaction level, zksync 1.0 has been online for a long time. Many people have been interacting since last year. For those who start to interact now, there may not be as many opportunities for later comers as the first comers. However, because 1.0 has been running on the main network and interaction and experience require real gold and silver, the probability of airdrop is very high. On the other hand, because the zksync 2.0 test network is cost free, it is also recommended to interact as much as possible. Although it will be very difficult, it is also a good time to interact with the main network if no coin is issued after the zksync 2.0 main network. To sum up, the relationship between interaction and airdrop is simple and simple:
Don't do multiple choice questions, block all possibilities
🌟 Zksync 1.0 interaction This version of zksync is already running on the main network, so all tests require real ETH interaction from Ethereum. It is important to control costs at each step. At the same time, the available projects and functions of zksync 1.0 are relatively limited. The function provided by the official website is to obtain a location with a high probability of air drop.
Top up After clicking Top up, 4 bridges will be displayed, and you can choose 1-2 at will. The official bridge is recommended. Transfer You can enter your or your friend's address for transfer here, just like the transfer between wallets. Swap At present, clicking the [Swap] button on the official website will jump to ZigZag, a decentralized exchange. It is recommended to trade more times, because the current trading functions available on zksync are very limited. ZigZag's direct link on the official website is very close to the official actions in all aspects. Gitcoin Donation&Passport This is a long-term interaction. Many people have been following the donation of Gitcoin on zkSync since last year. They can always follow the conditions. After all, with reference to the OP, the probability of air drop is also high. Passport is an on chain passport of Gitcoin. One of its settings is also to prevent witch attacks, so it can be lit as much as possible.
Cast NFT This step will be more troublesome. First, Content Address needs to upload an image to IPFS and obtain a CID, then fill in the CID code and cast NFT on the official zksync website.
❓ How to upload a picture to obtain a CID There are many such tools. Here, NFT Storage is used as an example: Register/login (Gmail or Github) upload Find the CID in the upload record and copy it
🌟 Zksync 2.0 test network interaction At present, zksync 2.0 is a Goerli Testnet, which supports cross chain recharge and cash withdrawal with the Goerli Testnet of the main Ethernet network on the official website. Add test network RPC Open the testnets button on the Chainlist, search for zksync, and add it to Metamask.
Faucet
There are two ways to test the network of zksync 2.0: 🚰 Official faucet - tweet is required, and avatar is required, not new account 🚰 Goerli faucet of Ethereum main network → zksync 2.0 bridge → zksync 2.0 testnet 💡 The tap has also become a treasure in the crowded testing network, especially in the large-scale army of masturbation. Ordinary people have to make great efforts to get water 😂 Here is a summary of Goerli faucets on Ethereum's main website 🔗 Interactive Swap - SyncSwap&Mute.io This step is relatively simple. Trading and adding liquidity go through all the functions that can be experienced, and more dex may appear in the future, so the same method can continue to interact. Cast NFT&List - MintSquare Link the wallet → click your avatar in the upper right corner and select mint → upload a picture and fill in the information → submit the casting. The whole transaction and use experience are very similar to OpenSea. After casting the NFT, you will view your own NFT in your own profile, select the NFT to set the price and list it, and conditionally, you can purchase another person's NFT to increase the completed experience.
Lending - 1kx 1kx has the functions of dex, stable currency, borrowing and lending, so you can experience everything you can, and you can do both swap and borrowing at one time.
