On June 11, 2024, ZKSync, a pioneering
ZK rollup and Ethereum’s first ever zkEVM chain announced ZK token airdrop
claim to put the ZK token into the hands of the community.
ZK token holders can use the tokens for
governance to govern ZKsync’s future.
Two-thirds (67%) of ZK will go to the
community.
17.5% of the overall supply will be
distributed through a one-time airdrop.
The rest will be distributed over time,
through ecosystem initiatives, managed by the ZKsync Foundation, and the ZK
Nation governance process, to support a growing ecosystem as new users come
onchain.
The remaining supply is allocated as
follows: 17.2% to investors and 16.1% to the Matter Labs team.
These ZK tokens are locked for the
first year and then unlock over the course of 3 years, between June 2025 to
June 2028.
ZKSync will allocate 17.5% of 21 billion total token supply to
695,232 wallets.
Airdropped tokens do not have any
vesting or lock up periods, and are fully liquid on day one. This amount is
larger than the locked allocations for the Matter Labs team (16.1%) and its
investors (17.2%).
The airdrop is designed to reward
community members that actively participate in a network.
Now ZKSync has 6 million unique
addresses on ZKsync Era
There are two ways to qualify for the
17.5% airdrop
1. Users (89%)
ZKsync users who transacted on ZKsync
and met a threshold of activity.
2. Contributors (11%)
Individuals, developers, researchers, communities, and companies who contributed to the ZKsync ecosystem and protocol through development, advocacy or education—regardless of their activity on ZKsync.
Eligibility and allocations for the airdrop were based on a snapshot of activity on ZKsync Era and ZKsync Lite taken on March 24th, 2024 at 0:00 UTC, marking the one-year anniversary of ZKsync Era mainnet launch.
