We just did our first Friday Points Airdrop to 44k users.

Some reminders:

• 100M points will be distributed during the six month beta period
• Airdrops happen on Fridays
• Points are recorded off-chain
• Points will have a special purpose once the beta period ends

Airdrops consider activity until Thursday 11:59pm UTC. The criteria will update weekly. We do not recommend any specific methods to earn points; it is best to use the app as you normally would. We reserve the right to modify previous point distributions if issues arise

Context: data that helps give meaning to other data.

Smart contracts rely on a lot of context when building efficient systems. In the multichain world, context is getting left behind, with trusted oracles & inefficient systems left instead.

It's time to bridge that context

An example of context: wstETH. Any wallet can hold the wstETH token and interact with it, however contracts might like to know the rate between wstETH and stETH. This context is provided by the contract via stEthPerToken().

etherscan.io/token/0x7f39c581f595b53c5cb19bd0b3f8da6c935e2ca0#readContract#F10

The problem arises once wstETH is bridged to another network. This context, is no longer present in the bridged token. Instead contracts must rely on a trusted oracle or operate without the information, both suboptimal solutions.

For my fomo #ETHLisbon hack, I built Context Provider, a pair of contracts that lets anyone bridge rate provider data from Ethereum to Polygon PoS & zkEVM using FxPortal. No permissioned actors. No oracles. Designed to bring contextual ERC-4626 data to a multichain world.
