Here is an updated airdrop strategy guide covering both Layerzero and zkSync.

I have structured this thread in two parts and it covers 3 main dapps on each platform.

So by trying out these total 6 dapps, you will be prepared enough for the $ZRO and $ZKS airdrops.

A thread🧵

🔮 Why I think there is still time. [Tweet 1-2]

♾️ LayerZero Airdrop Strategy. [Tweet 3-6]

🔛 zkSync Strategy. [Tweet 7-10]

Airdrop eligibility is mostly influenced by transaction count, amount, and duration, so the number of Dapps you try is not the key factor.

1/10

Why do I think there is still time?

• Snapshot for these airdrops was done roughly 30 days before the announcement:

• Arbitrum (38 days)

• Optimism (32 days)

• According to Matter Labs CEO, zkSync's $ZKS token will launch in approx 1 year.

• Also, $ZRO launch is confirmed.

2/10

Before we start,note that most of this is speculation and nothing is 100% confirmed. So try at your own risk.

I have divided the thread into easy-to-understand step-wise modules.

Each strategy covers the 3 main dapps.

So... LFG 🚀

3/10

♾️ LayerZero Airdrop Strategy.

• It's a messaging protocol that helps in passing messages or data across different chains.

• The main products built using this tech are bridges.

Let's try the dapps.

4/10

1. Use Stargate.

‣ Transfer from one EVM chain to other.

‣ I prefer swapping between BNB, Arbitrum, Optimism and Polygon. (low fees)

‣ You can try the stake feature and stake some $STG (Optional IMO, as the main product is bridge).

5/10

2. Use Aptos Bridge.

‣ Use the transfer feature.

‣ Transfer assets(USDC, USDT) between APTOS and other EVM chains.

‣ I prefer Arbitrum, Polygon, Optimism and BNB due to low gas fee.

6/10

3. Buying some $GETH on testnet bridge.

‣ Use the bridge.

‣ Buy some goerli ETH using ETH.

‣ I prefer Arbitrum & Optimism due to low gas fee.

7/10

🔛 zkSync Airdrop Strategy.

• Zksync is a ZK layer 2 rollup, whereas optimism and arbitrum are optimistic layer 2 rollups.

• The average past day TPS on zkSync has reached 11+, surpassing arbitrum and optimism.

• In this strategy I will focus mainly on the ERA version as I think it makes no sense to try lite as of now.

Let's jump on to the dapps...

8/10

1. Use the main bridge.

‣ Bridge to zkSync ERA.

‣ The only chain available as of now is ethereum.

‣ So the gas fee will be high.

9/10

2. Using Orbiter Finance.

‣ Now by using this dapp, we can also target the orbiter token which is confirmed and yet to launch.

‣ So, use the bridge to move assets to zkSync era.

‣ I prefer arbitrum and optimism as the gas fee for bridging is very low on both.

10/10

3. Swapping on Syncswap.

‣ They also have a confirmed $SYNC native token, which is yet to be launched.

‣ Swap using the dex dapp.

‣ You can also add liquidity in the pools, which is should be taken as optional IMO.
