ZKsync states that in order to ensure trustlessness and censorship resistance, the protocol must be governed by a diverse and passionate community. Transferring significant power to truly engaged community members is key to establishing decentralized governance.
ZK token allows holders to introduce and vote on protocol upgrades, and pay network fees through ZKsync’s native account abstraction. Through governance-driven protocol upgrades, the community can further develop ZK, introducing staking and other functionalities.
With the launch of more ZK chains, ZK token will become an important tool for coordinating technological innovation, with upcoming releases including Lens Network, Cronos zkEVM, GRVT, etc.
Two-thirds (approximately 67%) of ZK tokens will be allocated to the community. 17.5% of the total supply will be distributed through a one-time airdrop, with the remaining portion distributed through ecosystem programs managed by the ZKsync Foundation and ZK Nation governance processes to support new users on-chain.
The 17.5% airdrop will be distributed to 695,232 wallets, the largest user token distribution in a major rollup. These tokens will be fully liquid on the first day with no lock-up period. ZKsync airdrop will target real users and reveal their behavioral patterns through on-chain wallet history.
There are two ways to qualify for the 17.5% airdrop:
1. Users (89%): Users who conduct transactions on ZKsync and meet the activity threshold.
2. Contributors (11%): Individuals, developers, researchers, communities, and companies who contribute to the ZKsync ecosystem and protocol through development, promotion, or education.
Each address must meet a basic point threshold, and distribution will be based on the assets held on the ZKsync Era, with the length of time assets are held in wallets and DeFi also affecting the final distribution.
Each address can receive a multiplier based on its activities, including owning ZKsync native NFTs, holding ZKsync native ERC20 tokens, using smart contract wallets, etc.
At the end of the distribution process, each wallet will undergo additional Sybil detection to eliminate most obvious bots.
A small portion (11%) of the airdrop is allocated to individuals, developers, researchers, communities, and companies who contribute to the ZKsync ecosystem and protocol through development, promotion, or education.
These allocations include the treasury of ZKsync native projects, such as DeFi protocols, ZK chains, NFT collections, decentralized markets, infrastructure, games, etc.
Community members can check their eligibility at claim.zknation.io and can start claiming tokens next week until January 3, 2025.
