SCROLL TESTNET AIRDROP STRATEGY 📜⚡️ Scroll_ZKP is a zkEVM with a 1.8 billion valuation and no token yet. How to use Scroll Testnet, deposit in Scroll's AAVE, swap in Scroll's Uniswap v3. No funds are required. 20-minute strategy 🧵👇 1/9 What is Scroll_ZKP? Scroll is a zkEVM. A Zero-knowledge Rollup on Ethereum, like Starknet and zkSync. 2/9 Scroll has already reached around $80,000,000 in funding. Funded by several investors - Qiming Venture Partners and Polychain being the most recent. 🔗 crunchbase (dot) com/funding_round/scroll-tech-series-a--6cdb41f2 1.8 billion valuation 3/9 Will there be a token? An airdrop? No airdrop was confirmed so far. However, we can test the chain, following this strategy. • Vitalik, Barry Whitehat, Chih-Cheng Liang and Konstantopoulos made reviews of Scroll • The team consists of 20 people (they are hiring) 4/9 How to interact with Scroll? We will be engaging with Scroll Alpha Testnet, and also trying AAVE Scroll Testnet, which deployed recently 👇 5/9 STEP 1: Go to 🔗 scroll.io/alpha STEP 2: Add Ethereum Goerli Testnet & Scroll Alpha Testnet to your MetaMask STEP 3: Get Test Goerli ETH on faucetlink.to/goerli or faucet.paradigm.xyz 6/9 STEP 4: Bridge from Ethereum Goerli Tesnet to Scroll Testnet using their Hop fork scroll.io/alpha/bridge STEP 5: Check your bridge transaction on their explorer: blockscout.scroll.io 7/9 STEP 6: Let's try Aave's new Scroll Testnet. Go to app.aave.com and enable "Testnet mode" STEP 7: Switch to Scroll Alpha STEP 8: Go to Aave's Faucet to claim test tokens: app.aave.com/faucet STEP 9: Deposit tokens to Aave ⚡️ 8/9 STEP 10: Make swaps in Scroll's Uniswap v3: uniswap-v3.scroll.io/#/swap STEP 11: Join the Scroll Guild and claim some roles: guild.xyz/scrollzkp STEP 12: Visit their applications page for additional Dapps to use: scroll.io/alpha/ecosystem 9/9 With Optimism and Arbitrum, it was a good idea to be an early user and use the chains organically. This testnet is not incentivized at all, and transaction history could potentially be wiped $SCROLL, though, will eventually come in my opinion. It's best to try all chains!
$ETHFI airdrop strategy ⚡️ Ether Fi is an LSD protocol, like Lido and Rocketpool. Thread; how to potentially qualify for a Ether_Fi airdrop 🪂 1/8 What is Ether Fi? A Liquid Staking Solution. You stake your ETH, and accrue interest rewards derived from Node operators securing Ethereum. You can learn more about how it works technically: 🔗 https://etherfi.gitbook.io/etherfi/getting-started/introduction 2/8 In their latest medium article, they explicitly say "No token" They've also tweeted about it. 3/8 In the other hand, within their docs, they explicitly also say "Governance In the works ..." "EtherFI DAO" "ETHFI Token" So not sure which one is correct here 4/8 Ether Fi also has an "Early Adopter Program". They are rewarding points to users that stake. There was a snapshot taken in April, and they say there is a second coming soon. No relation between these points to any token or airdrops so far. This is speculation. 5/8 What is the strategy? Stake your ETH, rETH, stETH, or frax ETH: 🔗 mainnet.ether.fi/eap They accept any of those tokens as deposits. They also have 35M of TVL in their contract: 🔗 https://etherscan.io/address/0x7623e9dc0da6ff821ddb9ebaba794054e078f8c4 6/8 Risks? This is a new protocol, it comes with smart contract risks. It has been audited by Certik and Zellik: 🔗 etherfi.gitbook.io/etherfi/security/audits I would only use funds that you can afford to lose. 7/8 Funding? They have received 5.3M USD in funding, according to Crunchbase. Seed round 💰 8/8 Not for United States users. Directly, at least. Sorry friends, I don't believe they would do this if they could prevent it. I will update when there is news ⚡️
I am going to release a series of Altcoin that i am holding for the next bull run. I will released my portfolio based on category and why i think they will do better in the next bull run. For your kind information this is not a investment advice. I will share what i am doing for myself. DYOR
