ZetaChain公布创世空投计划，Layer1赛道还有突破机会吗？

On January 23, ZetaChain, a full-chain interoperable Layer 1 network that has raised $27 million in financing, announced its genesis airdrop plan.

According to the plan, ZetaChain will distribute 31.5 million ZETA to more than 800,000 users and contributors based on the amount of points (ZETA Points) accumulated on the test network. The snapshot date is August 20, 2023.

Currently, ZetaChain has announced the air investment qualification inquiry page on ZetaHub. The project team also stated in the announcement that this airdrop based on the test network is just the beginning. As ZetaChain continues to develop towards the main network and other stages, multiple products and plans will be implemented in the future to encourage users to adopt the main network. This Perhaps it indicates the possibility of further airdrops in the future.

Basic reward details

According to the airdrop plan, interaction points and invitation points will be counted separately to provide rewards for different types of contribution behaviors. The specific details are as follows:

• Users with more than 50,000 points will be eligible to receive basic rewards based on interaction points or invitation points. The rewards will not be issued according to the specific amount of points, but will be set at different levels according to the number of points, so as to avoid a small number of users receiving disproportionate rewards. of excess rewards.

• Users with higher invitation points can receive rewards based on their total invitation points and the proportion of invitees points.

• Users who join earlier can receive a certain amount of reward increase based on the date they joined (see below for details on the increase factor).

• Based on the users transaction records on the various chains connected to ZetaChain (including the test network and the main network), the basic reward will be adjusted to a certain extent. Users without any transaction records will face a certain reduction in rewards, because such addresses The probability of witches is relatively higher (see below for specific increase and reduction coefficients).

• The basic rewards available to inviters and interactors of different levels are 50 - 20,000 ZETA, and the two rewards will be calculated independently.

• Other ZetaLabs users will receive Access Pack props to gain access to the ZetaChain 1.0 mainnet. ZetaChain stated that the amount of ZETA allocated to these users will be announced when the airdrop is launched, but the size of the allocation will be smaller than the Genesis Airdrop, and the purpose is to allow as many participants as possible to try ZetaChain.

Based on the difference in contribution value, ZetaChain will assign different role badges such as Zeta Explorer, Zeat Jetsetter, Zeta Polit, Zeta Trailblazer, Zeta Racer, Zeta Boss, Zeta Cosmopolitans, etc. to all proposed airdrop objects. Users can now check their own in ZetaHub Badge and level status.

Coefficient adjustment plan

As mentioned above, in addition to the basic rewards, ZetaChain will also fine-tune the amount of ZETA rewards that users can ultimately receive based on factors such as transaction type, witch probability, and participation time. The specific plans are as follows:

• In terms of transaction types: Addresses that have conducted mainnet transactions on each chain connected to ZetaChain (Ethereum, BNB chain, Polygon) can receive a 10% increase in addition to the basic reward; but if only in the test of these chains If there has been interaction online, the basic reward will be reduced by 50%. ZetaChain stated that this move is intended to recognize its contribution, but it must be distinguished from the main network interaction behavior.

• In terms of witch probability: Users who do not have any transaction records on the chains connected to ZetaChain can only receive 10% of the base reward.

• In terms of time factors: Depending on the date a user first joins ZetaLabs, the final amount of rewards they can receive will also be different.

  Users who enter from August 1, 2022 to November 17, 2022 can receive a 25% increase;

  Users who enter from November 18, 2022 to February 15, 2023 will receive a 10% increase;

  Users who enter from February 15, 2023 to April 5, 2023 will receive a 5% increase;

  Users who enter from April 5, 2023 to June 20, 2023 will receive a 2.5% increase.

There are rewards for witches too?

In order to ensure that the rewards that real users should receive are not misappropriated, ZetaChain has cooperated with SocialScan and conducted witch screening based on the interaction behavior of the addresses, ultimately eliminating more than 300,000 potential witch addresses. These addresses are used in various verticals. There are almost the same behavioral patterns in domains and networks.

However, ZetaChain also mentioned that it will reward some of the addresses with the highest scores in the witch group. ZetaChain explained that this does not mean that the project intends to condone witch attacks, but because even witch addresses will help ZetaChain stress test the test network, thereby improving the stability of the network. This move also shows that ZetaChain will Any contribution behavior in the decentralized community will be rewarded.

Layer 1 with a different approach

At a time when many new chains are relying on new concepts such as DA disassembly and parallel processing to increase performance and cost, ZetaChain, which focuses on full-chain interoperability, is somewhat special in the Layer 1 track.

If other Layer 1s focus on breakthroughs in the underlying carrying capacity, ZetaChain focuses on how to connect major islands with increasingly improving carrying capacity. ZetaChain hopes to break the current markets reliance on bridges for cross-chain interactions and instead use native Omnichain smart contracts to perform trustless fund transfers and message responses on each chain.

According to the officially described vision, what ZetaChain hopes to do is to abstract the concept of chain and allow developers to build Omni-Dapps covering multiple chains based on Omnichain smart contracts, allowing users to switch without having to perceive the underlying blockchain. In this case, various operations involving cross-chain interactions can be performed through a single platform.

Native cross-chain Layer 1, similar stories are not new in the Crypto industry, but as the major ecosystems mature, whether ZetaChain can meet the market demand in the new cycle may be what determines the project core elements of future development conditions.
