zkSync Airdrop Guide: How To Get zkSync Airdrop?

The zkSync airdrop is one of the most highly anticipated airdrops of the season. With so many different criteria that can make you eligible for an airdrop, it can be difficult to know where to start. Don’t worry though, I’ve got you covered. I will list the top criteria that have the highest chance of making you eligible for the zkSync airdrop allocation. So read on to find out everything you need to know about the zkSync airdrop.

zkSync Airdrop Criteria

zkSync Guild

This criteria has been widely circulated in the zkSync community. You can join the zkSync guild by visiting https://guild.xyz/zksync-era, but please note that the requirements are quite strict. To be eligible, you must have a Gitcoin Passport with a Unique Humanity Score of 20. This requires you to complete a few KYC with third-party services and pay a small fee.

Additionally, you can buy a zkSync Libertas Omnibus NFT for around $250 to obtain the Omnibus Holder role.

zkSync Success Program

Once you have fulfilled the requirements of zkSync Guild, you will be granted Verified Roles Level 2, which will enable you to enroll in the zkSync Success program. After that, go to the ‘get-involved’ channel on zkSync’s Discord, complete the quest, and earn your ZK Success Rookie role. Following this, you will learn about the criteria for achieving the ZK Success Intern and ZK Success Pro roles.

NFT Interaction

zkSync has airdropped its Libertas Omnibus NFT to eligible wallets, including those that interacted with at least one of the top 150 zkSync NFT collections between Mainnet launch and July 12, 2023. Therefore, it is crucial to interact with NFTs on zkSync if you wish to be eligible for the airdrop.

Apart from trading NFTs, you should also consider minting some because NFT minting could be considered a smart contract interaction. There are a few reasonably priced NFT minting options that you should take into account.

Bridge Asset

The first-ever gate to enter the zkSync era. Use zkSync’s main bridge to transfer assets from other chains to zkSync: https://portal.zksync.io/bridge.

There are 4 key points to pay attention:

Bridged funds into zkSync era
Bridged more than $10,000 of assets into zkSync era
Bridged more than $50,000 of assets into zkSync era
