Its the start of airdrop season, here are 6 to look out for 🧵👇

$ARB drops today to users & DAOs on the #Ethereum layer-2 platform.

Average user received around 625 $ARB tokens, approximately $625 to $1,250 according to pre launch trading prices

Here are another 5 potential airdrop opportunities for this year.

#zkSyncEra is a layer-2 rollup on #ETH based on zero-knowledge (ZK) proof technology.

@VitalikButerin reckons that zk-based EVM-compatible rollups could be a game-changer technology.

zkSync, raised $200m in Dec 2022 in funding round led by Blockchain Capital and Dragonfly

@VitalikButerin #Starknet is another ZK-based ETH rollup that supports #DEX applications.

StarkWare launched the Starknet mainnet in November.

Total deposits on Starknet jumped 45% to $2.49m after the Aribtrum token launch announcement as users rushed to farm the next airdrop.

@VitalikButerin #Scroll, branded as a “true #zkEVM,” is another zk-Rollup Ethereum layer 2.

Raised $30m led by @polychaincap

Scroll’s replicates the same version of the ETH Virtual Machine as used on mainnet, making it easier for existing Eth developers to deploy code on Scroll.

@VitalikButerin @polychaincap #Sui Network is a Move-based layer-1 blockchain, similar to #Aptos.

$APT was launched on 18 Oct 22, airdropping 20m tokens.

On launch day, the airdrop was worth over $1,500

Sui testnet users can expect a similar airdrop upon mainnet launch in Q2 2023.

@VitalikButerin @polychaincap #SeiNetwork is a #Cosmos-based layer 1 blockchain focusing mainly on #DeFi & high-frequency trading applications.

The team launched its incentivized testnet in Q2 2022 with various mission & #NFT minting campaigns along the way. These users will likely receive an airdrop.
