Airdrop Alert π¨: Scroll Mainnet is live, a potential 4 digit airdrop?
Gm fam!
It's CryptoJargon, your friendly neighborhood blockchain buddy back again with the fresh alpha on locking down airdrop opportunities. Today we scope out the hot new opportunity on Scroll. π
This zkEVM layer 2 is still droolin' in its infancy but already showing mad potential.
Let's break down everything you need to take this airdrop to the bank:
π Project 101
Scroll Mainnet, an Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM)-compatible zero-knowledge rollup network, launched on October 17, 2023 after over two years of development.
The network aims to scale Ethereum by allowing users to interact with smart contracts and decentralized applications (DApps) with lower costs and faster transaction speeds relative to the main Ethereum blockchain.
The Scroll Mainnet project is still in its early stages. However, it utilizes zero-knowledge proofs to batch transactions into layers to reduce gas fees and delay settlements, offering improvements over the base layer in terms of performance and cost-effectiveness if widely adopted.
π° Funding & Backers
According to available sources, Scroll has raised a total of $80 million across two funding rounds from prominent blockchain investors. As of March 2023, Scroll's reported valuation was $1.8 billion. Some of Scroll's investors include Polychain Capital, Sequoia Capital, and OKX Ventures.

π Defi & On-chain Metrics
Even though Scroll is a very new chain all the metrics are on the rise, TVL is currently at $3.57M and shows no signs of stopping, with such inflow of capital we are bound to find some juicy defi yield opportunities.
We shall discuss one of them later.
If we look at the onchain data too, i.e the Sum of ETH deposited in the network and transactions over time, both are in an uptrend.
As usual a good percentage of this volume is coming from Airdrop hunters hunting for the $SCROLL Airdrop which can be massive, and also yield seekers.
For increasing our chances of getting the Airdrop we need to use the official bridge atleast 3 times interact with top dApps and make good volume (atleast $10,000) letβs get to that..
