zkSync Airdrop Checklist
Introduction
zkSync is a zkEVM network designed to accelerate the widespread adoption of blockchain technology by making decentralized applications more accessible and affordable at any scale.
In late 2022, I published a checklist for the zkSync airdrop which includes the zkSync Lite mainnet (previously alpha 1.0) and Alpha 2.0 testnet. You can find it below though the links might be outdated/irrelevant.

Apps to Use on zkSync
Bridges
Unlike the Lite network, several bridges are integrating zkSync. I’m only mentioning those that do not have their own tokens:
zkSync Official Bridge
deBridge*
Orbiter*
Via Protocol*
LiFi / Jumper*
Wallets
Besides the wallets supporting the Lite network which are also supporting Era, a number of other well-known wallets will be supporting zkSync Era, including:
Metamask
Zerion*
OKX
Taho*
Rabby*
BitKeep
DeFi
These apps are live on Era mainnet. Trade, provide liquidity, and collect their OATs and NFTs if there are any.
SyncSwap**
Maverick*
SpaceFi
Nexon**
Unidex
The following apps are still not live on the zkSync Era mainnet. Follow their announcements. Once they integrate zkSync, you may consider using them as they also do not have their own tokens.
ZKEX*
PerpDEX*
Arrakis*
Odos*
Vovo*
ZKasino*
NFTs
Mint and trade NFTs on these marketplaces.
