SCROLL TESTNET AIRDROP STRATEGY 📜⚡️
Scroll_ZKP is a zkEVM with a 1.8 billion valuation and no token yet.
How to use Scroll Testnet, deposit in Scroll's AAVE, swap in Scroll's Uniswap v3. No funds are required.
20-minute strategy 🧵👇
1/9
What is Scroll_ZKP?

1.8 billion valuation
3/9
Will there be a token? An airdrop?
No airdrop was confirmed so far. However, we can test the chain, following this strategy.
• Vitalik, Barry Whitehat, Chih-Cheng Liang and Konstantopoulos made reviews of Scroll
• The team consists of 20 people (they are hiring)
4/9
How to interact with Scroll?
We will be engaging with Scroll Alpha Testnet, and also trying AAVE Scroll Testnet, which deployed recently
👇
5/9
STEP 1: Go to 🔗 scroll.io/alpha
STEP 2: Add Ethereum Goerli Testnet & Scroll Alpha Testnet to your MetaMask
STEP 3: Get Test Goerli ETH on faucetlink.to/goerli or faucet.paradigm.xyz
6/9
STEP 4: Bridge from Ethereum Goerli Tesnet to Scroll Testnet using their Hop fork scroll.io/alpha/bridge
STEP 5: Check your bridge transaction on their explorer: blockscout.scroll.io
7/9
STEP 6: Let's try Aave's new Scroll Testnet. Go to app.aave.com and enable "Testnet mode"
STEP 7: Switch to Scroll Alpha
STEP 8: Go to Aave's Faucet to claim test tokens: app.aave.com/faucet
STEP 9: Deposit tokens to Aave ⚡️
8/9
STEP 10: Make swaps in Scroll's Uniswap v3: uniswap-v3.scroll.io/#/swap
STEP 11: Join the Scroll Guild and claim some roles: guild.xyz/scrollzkp
STEP 12: Visit their applications page for additional Dapps to use: scroll.io/alpha/ecosystem
9/9
With Optimism and Arbitrum, it was a good idea to be an early user and use the chains organically.
This testnet is not incentivized at all, and transaction history could potentially be wiped
$SCROLL, though, will eventually come in my opinion. It's best to try all chains!
Introducing Bonsai, an Optimistic L3 scaling solution, that will process transactions at hyper-scale, and is designed to support the next generation of web3 social users.
Available for Lens devs in closed beta today.
Data availability layers are utilized to prevent storing information on-chain. While content on Lens may include an on-chain transaction, the content data is linked to a data availability location, like Bonsai.
Bonsai serves as a scaling solution that processes Polygon transactions off-chain, achieving hyperscale and reducing costs. Unlike L2 solutions, Bonsai doesn't compress transactions into L1, it sends and stores them on a data availability layer.
The main challenge for decentralized social networks is to ensure that users have control over their content, while still being just as user-friendly as traditional social networks.
Bonsai makes the future of decentralized social possible.
We've worked relentlessly with the @bundlr-network.lens work and Arweave teams to ensure scalability by providing Data Availability (DA) guarantees, allowing the use of Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM)-supported wallets to save DA logic and facilitating the rapid publishing of data.
Permissionless innovation is at the core of everything we do on Lens. As we approach one year on mainnet (still in beta), we have been blown away by the talent and passion in our dev community but we realize in order to scale to the masses, we need to build new solutions.
Bonsai is currently only being beta tested on @lensterxyz.
We look forward to seeing more applications roll out Bonsai.

おはよう @ethglobal.lens Tokyo! 🇯🇵
The Lens team is on the ground and we're so excited to bring the social layer of web3 to Japan.
We have $20k in prizes for the hackathon!
🥇 1st $5k
🥈 2nd $3k

🎖️ 10 best Lens Integrations for nullk each
Lens is web3 native meaning it’s simple to build native payment features directly into your app. Mirrors, collects, follows and comments allow creators to monetize their content directly to the user, without intermediaries, and in a permissionless way. Premium content, token-gated rewards, tipping, crowdfunding, subscription services, referral, and affiliate programs are just a handful of the countless types of integrations you can build with Lens.
Looking for some inspiration?
We're still in the early innings of AI and ML and want to see more devs utilizing the latest innovations from OpenAI, Replicate, HuggingFace, LangChain, and Dust just to name a few. Imagine the possibilities when web3 social intersects with AI/ML 🤯
You could use AI/ML to analyze a user’s feed over the course of a few days and condense it into a single view so they can visit less often and still be up to date with what’s the latest and greatest.
Or create a social learning platform that uses AI to create personalized learning paths for users. It could assess users' knowledge levels, recommend relevant learning materials, and provide real-time feedback and guidance.
You could use Lens profiles specifically for your gaming identity. Imagine your in-game items and high scores attached to your Lens profile and you curate a Lens leaderboard for the community.
Bust a move! Build an app that lets users participate in virtual dance-off challenges. Users can record and upload their dances, challenge friends or random users, and compete for the elusive best dancer on Lens title 💃🕺
Build a community app for @galverse.lens on Lens that utilizes the Splits for Collects feature (docs.lens.xyz/docs/create-post-typed-data#multirecipientfeecollectmodule)) and you'll help with the development of the anime, character design, story, and more.
Imagine using the Collect module for more exclusive content such as event ticketing.
How about building a governance forum specifically for Lens users? gm DAOs 🤔
Calling all pet lovers out there. Create a social platform where users can showcase their pets' talents, tricks, and general awesomeness. Users can upload videos of their pets and participate in virtual talent shows, with categories like "Best Trick," and "Funniest Moment"
Want to bridge that gap from web2 social to web3? Build a site that shows you the most followed people that have used a site (maybe the 🐦 app) or help users connect their web2 account and generate a ZKP for mapping.
Or a Lens creator dashboard for tracking post analytics (engagement, collects, revenue, etc) and helping you find your 1000 true fans.
Maybe you find yourself collecting every post from one of the 100k profiles already on Lens. Create a module to “subscribe” to someone and automatically collect everything the post within certain parameters.
