This is a segment from the 0xResearch newsletter. To read full editions, subscribe . Today, Scroll, Axiom, developer Max Gillet and the Ethereum Foundation’s Privacy Scaling Explorations (PSE) team are announcing OpenVM, an open-source zkVM framework for instant proving. OpenVM will be adopted by the Scroll L2 as its zkVM, and plans to validate mainnet blocks in coming months. This transitions Scroll from a currently Type-3 to a Type-1 zkEVM — the most fully Ethereum-equivalent zkEVM type. Scroll’s upgrade to a Stage-1 rollup with a fully functioning proof system will follow soon thereafter. Newsletter Subscribe to Blockworks Daily Subscribe According to a press release, Scroll’s decision to design a new zkVM from the ground up was driven by a belief that many existing zkVM solutions were “monolithic” and “locking developers into vertically integrated stacks.” OpenVM’s open-source and modular architecture would enable Scroll to introduce features without making changes to the underlying circuit, and developers to benefit from zkVM improvements without having to modify application code. The state of ZK OpenVM joins a market already crowded with zkVMs. Unlike traditional virtual machines, zkVMs are designed to compile and execute smart contracts into zero-knowledge proofs in a secure and private way that does not reveal underlying data. Today, the zkVM market carries at least a dozen different zkVMs, such as RISC Zero “ RISC0 ” and Succinct’s “ SP1 .” Source: Electric Capital As seen in the below chart, proofs submitted to Ethereum mainnet saw a peak in December 2023, largely coming from zk rollups like Linea, ZKsync and Scroll, rather than applications. Proof volumes saw a drop in 2024, largely due to two factors. One, proof generation has been increasingly batched using recursive proof aggregation — a technique that verifies multiple proofs within one proof — to reduce costs. Souce: zkstats.io Second, proof verification is getting more efficient, so costs are steeply declining from just a year ago. Prover networks like Risc Zero’s “Boundless” and Fermah have also helped apps and rollups to bring zk-proving costs down. These networks allow teams to outsource proof generation to specialized hardware providers with ASICs and GPUs that compete to generate zk proofs cheaply. Based on Electric Capital’s recent developer report , there are 2,054 monthly active developers working in zk. The use of zk has seen tremendous growth, with zk contract deployments growing from 40 to 639 today over the last four years.

Bitget launched an innovative product "Pre-market Trading" in April this year, with Merlin Coin (MERL) as the first project. Up to now, Bitget's pre-market trading has listed 50 tokens, including popular tokens such as Movement (MOVE), Scroll (SCR), and Orderly Network (ORDER), with a total transaction volume exceeding 50 million US dollars. Bitget's pre-market trading is an over-the-counter trading platform that provides a pre-trading market before new coins officially go live. It promotes peer-to-peer transactions between buyers and sellers, allowing them to set quotes and match trades, completing delivery at a mutually agreed time.

Scroll’s co-founder rebutted claims the Ethereum layer-2 network orchestrated a “predatory” token launch in October, dismissing the allegations as “wild” in a Nov. 28 post on the X platform. Sandy Peng, Scroll’s co-founder and CEO, said Scroll has “been reflecting on community feedback” and is “working on addressing this with Session 2,” Scroll’s planned follow-on airdrop announced in October. Additionally, Scroll is “restructuring to align with our next phase of development,” and “[s]ome team members are moving on,” Peng said. Source: Sandy Peng Related: Ethereum layer 2 Scroll tips native token launch On Oct. 22, Scroll launched its native token, SCR, in a controversial airdrop marred by accusations of token dumping by members of the network’s core team. The token’s price dropped 32% on the first day of trading after Scroll granted large SCR allocations to a handful of whale wallets, upsetting some airdrop participants. In a Nov. 27 X post , Rushi Manche, co-founder of rival blockchain developer Movement Labs, described Scroll as “probably one of the worst actors in the space” and claimed Scroll “literally airdropped to [team members’] wallets and dumped.” On Nov. 28, Peng said Scroll allocated a “negligible” amount of Marks — or points used to set airdrop allocations — to its own wallets and mainly used SCR allocations to seed decentralized exchanges (DEXs) with trading liquidity. “In hindsight, removing Marks for clarity would’ve been better. Lesson learned,” Peng said. The SCR token will be “a primary governance mechanism of the protocol and progress to being a protocol utility token as Scroll becomes more decentralized,” Scroll said in October . The token’s total supply is 1 billion SCR, with 15% pegged for airdrops, 35% for ecosystem growth and 17% for investors. The rest will go to the Scroll Foundation (10%) and contributors (23%). Scroll is a zero-knowledge (ZK) rollup competing against layer 2s such as ZKsync Era and Starknet. ZK-rollups are expected to eventually supplant optimistic rollups — such as Arbitrum and Base — as Ethereum’s dominant scaling solutions. Compared to optimistic rollups, which often take upward of seven days to finalize transactions, ZK-rollups usually settle within minutes. They face competition from L2s using alternative approaches, such as Movement Labs’ postconfirmations . According to crypto researcher Aylo, the pseudonymous founder of Alpha Please, 23 of the 31 tokens distributed in sizable airdrops have lost value since their first day of listing, sometimes severely .

Scroll (CRYPTO:SCR), a layer-2 Ethereum (CRYPTO:ETH) scaling solution, has responded to allegations surrounding its controversial SCR token launch, which saw its price fall 32% on its first trading day. Critics accused Scroll of enabling token dumping through large allocations to whale wallets during its October airdrop. In a November 28 post on X, Scroll co-founder Sandy Peng dismissed these claims as “wild,” emphasising that SCR allocations were primarily used to provide liquidity to decentralised exchanges (DEXs). “Scroll allocated a negligible amount of Marks to its own wallets,” Peng stated, adding that greater clarity could have been provided during the process. “In hindsight, removing Marks for clarity would’ve been better. Lesson learned,” Peng said. The SCR token launch sparked backlash, with Rushi Manche, co-founder of Movement Labs, describing Scroll as “probably one of the worst actors in the space.” Manche alleged that the team “airdropped to [team members’] wallets and dumped.” Despite the controversy, Peng highlighted Scroll’s efforts to restructure its team and reflect on community feedback. The platform has announced Session 2, a follow-up airdrop aimed at addressing user concerns. SCR, designed as both a governance and utility token, has a total supply of 1 billion tokens. Its allocation includes 15% for airdrops, 35% for ecosystem development, and portions for investors, contributors, and the Scroll Foundation. The platform operates as a zero-knowledge (ZK) rollup, competing with networks like ZKsync (CRYPTO:ZK) and Starknet (CRYPTO:STRK), which are positioned to replace optimistic rollups as Ethereum’s leading scaling solutions. The incident sheds light on broader challenges within the cryptocurrency space. According to crypto researcher Aylo, 23 out of 31 significant airdropped tokens have depreciated since their listings, emphasising the need for greater transparency and robust mechanisms in token distribution practices. At the time of reporting, the Scroll price was $0.8172.
Author: shushu, BlockBeats The Ethereum ecosystem has just experienced a reversal in the past two days, but the Ethereum community is not calm. A former team member of the zkRollup project Scroll has gotten into a dispute with Movement, which just concluded its testnet and announced an airdrop. Scroll accused Movement of code plagiarism, while Movement claimed that Scroll's team acted inappropriately, single-handedly damaging the reputation of the Layer 2 ecosystem. Currently, the official members of the Scroll team have not made a formal response. Why the Direct Confrontation? The spark for the debate ignited in someone else's comment section. @enshriningplebs posted, "We invented the concept of 'postconfirmations' to issue our tokens before going live on the mainnet." @seunlanlege sarcastically replied, "Oh, so only researchers from the Ethereum Foundation can invent objectively meaningless garbage protocols and that’s considered cool? What a double standard." Rushi Manche, co-founder of Movement Labs, then added, "Exactly, only Uniswap and Flashbots are allowed to do this because they align with Ethereum's interests (by the way, I really like their architecture). As for the thousands of popular terms we created for those useless EVM L2s, that’s much more ethical." Then, Toghrul, a former team member of Scroll, directly countered Rushi's sarcastic remarks by saying, "Stop pretending to be so high and mighty, okay?" "Let's talk about those popular terms created by EVM L2s?" He believes that the new term "postconfirmations" is essentially just a rebranding of "preconfirmations," and this renaming was a result of them being mocked for calling themselves "fast finality Rollup." Even more absurdly, they themselves don't even understand whether it's an optimistic Rollup or a sidechain, as these two architectures are inherently contradictory. Toghrul mentioned that he directly pointed out these issues in group discussions, but the response was, "No one uses them, so they can't be considered original," leaving him puzzled. He also stated that Movement's entire codebase is almost a fork from Aptos, with only minimal changes made. In contrast, those so-called "useless EVM L2s" have produced many widely used core technologies, such as Polygon inventing Plonky2 and Arbitrum creating a general fraud proof based on Wasm, while Movement can't even understand basic EVM support. Rushi did not hold back, directly stating, "High and mighty? Are you kidding me?" He then began to list Scroll's offenses one by one. Exploited the community for years, yet launched a predatory incentive plan that ultimately shifted the burden onto ordinary investors. The team has been selling secondary market shares for years before the launch. Other team members were forced to buy in at an $1.8 billion valuation while the top executives were selling at the same time. You even directly allocated airdrop distributions to your own wallets for cashing out. Designed the most predatory token economic model, aimed at harming every community member. To express Rushi's anger directly, here is his original content for readers to feel: "Today, because of your actions, almost no one wants to identify as EVM L2 anymore. You delivered the worst product, and the entire community and ecosystem are filled with resentment towards you. Now it’s clear you’re just bored. I won’t comment on technical matters; that should be addressed by researchers. You have been 'hounding' me for several months, while I have remained quiet and respectful. Technical debates are one thing; I believe we can improve, but you have crossed the line. If you want to debate with Franck on Spaces, go ahead. Otherwise, please improve your own chain and stop making it look like a complete scam." He also added, "I have respect for some members of your team, but Scroll and you can be said to be among the worst participants in this field (at least 6 of your colleagues—half of whom have already left—specifically came to apologize to me for your actions)." "In the past two months, a quarter of your team has applied for our positions. There are many people I really like on your side, so I feel a bit guilty, but please don’t come at me with that high and mighty attitude, haha." Finally, Rushi said, "I am actively searching for 'Scroll scam' and learning more. @toghrulmaharram, don’t think about coming to trouble me, haha." The Controversy of Scroll Earlier this year, Starknet sparked outrage over the term "electronic beggar," and coincidentally, Scroll made the same mistake when its senior researcher Toghrul Maharramov directly referred to a user as an "electronic beggar" during a confrontation, even using malicious terms like fxxk in a post mocking users for seeking airdrops. On September 15, the Trump family's crypto project World Liberty Financial announced that Scroll co-founder Sandy Peng would become an advisor to the project, which the community viewed as an example of Scroll's adeptness at maintaining insider relationships. In October, Scroll became the first pre-market trading project on Binance and announced its tokenomics. However, this news sparked community skepticism, accusing Scroll of having too low airdrop quotas while Binance Launchpool's quota ratio was too high, clearly trying to curry favor with Binance. From the data, the total supply of SCR is 1 billion tokens, with an initial circulating supply of only 190 million tokens, accounting for 19% of the total. In the token distribution, airdrops account for only 15%, while ecosystem and growth account for 35%, and the Scroll DAO treasury accounts for 10%. Even for the 15% airdrop, only 2% was circulating at TGE, with the remaining portion needing to be gradually unlocked over four years. In contrast, Binance Launchpool allocated 5.5%, with a TGE circulation ratio of 2.5%, and the remaining 17% also unlocking over four years, making the initial circulation ratio of Launchpool far higher than that of the community airdrop. Additionally, the Scroll Foundation accounts for 10%, core contributors for 23%, and investors for 17%. The tokens of core contributors and investors only begin to unlock a year after TGE, but the proportions held by the ecosystem, Launchpool, and the Scroll Foundation in the initial circulation are relatively large. This distribution mechanism amplifies the holding weight of Binance and large institutions, while the community's interests are significantly compressed, deepening the community's doubts about Scroll's tokenomics design. The community used K-lines to show Scroll what it means to be unique, and even Scroll's project logo was ridiculed by the community. On one hand, Scroll is very adept at upward management, while on the other hand, community management appears to be overwhelmed. After the dispute between former team members and Rushi broke out, Movement clearly held the upper hand in public opinion. Community Perspective Leo Wong, founder of Movement's DEX WarpGate, stated that Toghrul's attacks not only lack technical basis but are also filled with malice. He accused Scroll of predatory behavior that is self-evident: internal sell-offs, exploitative token economic models, and community farming based on false promises. These actions not only tarnish Scroll's reputation but also undermine the concept of a fair blockchain ecosystem. "If Scroll truly has technical criticisms, please have your researchers and engineers present them respectfully. Resorting to personal attacks and public smear campaigns only highlights your lack of confidence in your own platform and practices. The blockchain industry relies on collaboration, transparency, and trust, not petty acts of revenge." Developer Andrew Capasso stated that Toghrul's redefinition of Scroll's criticisms as personal attacks is actually an evasion of responsibility for the team's collective behavior. He believes Toghrul is still entangled in the minutiae of words and has not realized that the real issue is Scroll's deliberate moral damage to the community. "This undermines your credibility, whether you like it or not. A sense of responsibility and integrity is more important than technical details. You are not an obscure developer but one of their most powerful PR warriors. Keep being stubborn, and Scroll's logo will be forever branded on you, haha." KOL Crypto Weituo stated, "Without making judgments about right or wrong, there are some takeaways from these two dialogues that I think everyone needs to know." The "halal era" of raising valuations and funding solely by aligning with certain ideologies is over. Please spend money on people who truly know how to communicate with retail communities; those who don't know how to speak should keep quiet. As a project party in the crypto space, you are wrong, and retail investors are right; do not compete with retail investors in research capabilities. It’s best to consider yourself a retail investor and spend some time playing with what they love most. Brainwash VCs, not yourself. Some also told Rushi that this is entirely a malicious debate, "Toghrul's technical comments have nothing to do with Scroll's poor community management. This is a great mobilization to get those who have been harmed to publicly support you, but you must recognize that this is not 'a good-natured public technical discussion.'" However, Rushi believes that his response post has nothing to do with technical issues but merely points out that Toghrul's attitude towards him and the Movement team is filled with malice and insult. "I have remained silent before because I can handle it myself, but I will not tolerate any insults and harm towards my team."

Next, former Scroll team member Toghrul directly responded to Rushi's sarcastic remarks, saying, "Stop pretending to be all high and mighty, okay?" "Tell us about those trendy terms created by EVM L2," he argued. He believed that the new term "postconfirmations" essentially just renamed "preconfirmations," and this rebranding was only done because they were ridiculed for claiming to be a "fast finality Rollup." What's even more absurd is that they themselves couldn't even figure out if it was an Optimistic Rollup or a sidechain, as these two architectures are inherently contradictory. Toghrul mentioned that he raised these issues in group discussions, but the response he received was, "No one is using them, so they can't be considered innovative," which left him puzzled. He also mentioned that Movement's entire codebase is almost a slight variation from Aptos, with minimal changes. On the other hand, those so-called "useless EVM L2s" have produced many widely used core technologies, such as Polygon inventing Plonky2 and Arbitrum creating a Wasm-based general fraud proof, while Movement doesn't even seem to understand basic EVM support. Rushi showed no mercy either and directly said, "High and mighty? Are you kidding?" Then he began listing Scroll's offenses one by one. 1. Utilizing the community for years, yet launching a predatory incentive plan that ultimately shifted the burden to ordinary investors. 2. The team continuously sold secondary market shares during the years leading up to the launch. 3. Other team members were forced to buy in at a $1.8 billion valuation while top leadership was selling off at the same time. 4. You even directly airdropped tokens to your own wallet for cashing out. 5. Designed the most predatory tokenomics to ensure harm to every community member.

"In the past two months, a quarter of your team has applied for our positions.

Finally, Rushi concluded with, "I am actively searching for 'Scroll scam' and delving deeper to learn more. @toghrulmaharram, don't even think about coming to bother me, haha." In response to Rushi's accusations, Scroll's co-founder Sandy made several statements in a post today, including: 1. Acknowledging the poorly designed airdrop and its harm to a part of the community, which will be rectified through Session 2; 2. The team wallet did not claim the airdrop. In the future, to avoid confusion, the points related to that wallet will be removed; 3. The team never forced team members to subscribe to the token at the last-round valuation; 4. The team is restructuring to adapt to the next stage of development, and some team members will resign. We believe they will shine in their new positions. Scroll Controversy Overview Earlier this year, Starknet sparked outrage due to the term "E-waste." Similarly, Scroll made the same mistake, with its Senior Researcher, Toghrul Maharramov, directly referring to a user as an "E-waste" during an altercation, and even mocking users in posts using malicious language like "fxxk" when seeking airdrops. On September 15, the Trump family-affiliated crypto project World Liberty Financial announced that Scroll's co-founder, Sandy Peng, had become an advisor to the project. This move was seen by the community as an example of the Scroll team's adeptness at maintaining insider relationships. In October, Scroll became Binance's first pre-trading project and revealed its tokenomics. However, this news raised community doubts, accusing Scroll of having a low airdrop allocation while Binance Launchpool's allocation was too high, clearly an attempt to please Binance. From the data perspective, SCR has a total supply of 1 billion tokens, with an initial circulation of only 190 million tokens, accounting for 19% of the total. In the token distribution, airdrops account for only 15%, while ecosystem and growth account for 35%, and the Scroll DAO Treasury accounts for 10%. Even within the 15% allocated for airdrops, only 2% were in circulation at TGE, with the remainder gradually unlocking over four years. In contrast, Binance Launchpool allocated 5.5%, with 2.5% already in circulation at TGE. The remaining 17% also unlock over four years, resulting in Launchpool having a significantly higher initial circulation percentage than community airdrops. Furthermore, the Scroll Foundation holds 10%, core contributors hold 23%, and investors hold 17%. The tokens for core contributors and investors start unlocking a year after TGE, but the ecosystem, Launchpool, and Scroll Foundation hold a significant percentage in the initial circulation. This allocation mechanism amplifies the holdings of Binance and large institutions, significantly reducing community interests and deepening the community's doubts about Scroll's tokenomics design. The community used candlestick charts to show Scroll what uniqueness really means, even Scroll's project logo was ridiculed by the community. Scroll excels in top-down management on the one hand, but community management seems inadequate. After the controversy between former team members and Rushi broke out, from a community perspective, Movement clearly has the upper hand in public opinion. Community Perception Leo Wong, the founder of Movement's WarpGate DEX, stated that Toghrul's attack lacked not only technical basis but also was filled with malice. He accused Scroll of its predatory behavior being evident when criticizing Movement's terms or architecture: internal dumping, exploitative tokenomics, and a community farm based on false promises. These actions not only tarnished Scroll's reputation but also stained the idea of a fair blockchain ecosystem. "If Scroll has genuine technical criticism, please let your researchers and engineers present it in a respectful manner. Resorting to personal attacks and public defamation will only highlight your lack of confidence in your own platform and practices. The blockchain industry relies on collaboration, transparency, and trust, not this kind of petty retaliatory behavior." Developer Andrew Capasso mentioned that reshaping Scroll's criticism as a personal attack by Toghrul was actually an attempt to evade responsibility for the team's collective behavior. He believes Toghrul is too caught up in semantics and fails to realize that the real issue is the moral harm intentionally caused by Scroll to the community. "Whether you like it or not, this undermines your credibility. Accountability and integrity are more important than technical details. You are not just an unknown developer but one of their most powerful PR warriors. Keep digging in, and Scroll's logo will be permanently stamped on you, haha." Crypto influencer 加密韋馱 stated, "I won't make judgments of right or wrong, but there are some takeaways from these two dialogues that I think everyone needs to know." 1. The 'halal era' where valuation was pumped with just aligning with some ideology is over. 2. Please spend money on people who truly know how to engage with the retail community. People who don't know how to speak should keep quiet. 3. As a project in the crypto world, you are wrong, and retail investors are right. Don't compete with retail investors in terms of research and investment capabilities. 4. It's best to also consider yourself a retail investor, spend some time playing with their favorite things 5. Brainwash VCs, but don't brainwash yourself Some people also told Rushi that this is completely malicious argumentation, "Toghrul's technical critique has nothing to do with Scroll's poor community management. This is a very good mobilization, allowing those who have been victimized to openly support you, but you must realize that this is not 'good-faith public technical discussion'." However, Rushi believes that his response post is unrelated to technical issues, only pointing out that Toghrul's attitude towards him and the Movement team is full of malice and insults. "I have always remained silent before because I can handle it myself, but I will never tolerate any insult or harm to my team."

1.Rui: $BONK will start a new round of growth $BONK has just broken through the huge triangle consolidation range of the past year. If the pullback is confirmed, this will be an opportunity worth bold layout. Rui believes that BONK's next step will be quite radical, especially with the accumulation of the following catalytic factors, it will stand out among the many meme coins: 1. Robinhood and Webull listing rumors are approaching, which will unlock the liquidity of US retail investors 2. The only memecoin with ETP 3. Coinbase's only new memecoin 4. BonkBot's strong repurchase/destruction pressure 5.

The difference is that Floki is actually practical and has built a huge ecosystem in the past three years. This is also the reason why I don't easily chase after random rises - I prefer #memecoins that survive in bear markets and have fundamental support, especially #Floki.

Brief pullback: The bears received brief relief, and the price continued to rise after a slight pullback. XO said that regardless of the scenario, he maintains a bullish positioning and will continue to hold.

SCR is supported by Polychain and is also the largest supporter of Trump's WLFI project. Among the three major crypto funds in the US, only Polychain explicitly supports Trump, and even once worked at Mar-a-Lago. 2. It is speculated that Polychain's position cost is in the range of 7-900 million dollars, and the position ratio is close to or even more than 10%. 3. The essence of WLFI is to raise campaign funds for Trump. Based on non-public data, in the last 20 days of the campaign, Trump's funds were in crisis, but he could not directly and quickly obtain political contributions from the US people. Therefore, he opened an overseas fundraising channel through Polychain and SCR, which was a "timely help" move. 4. If SCR is a US project, the dividends obtained may be greater.

ENS is becoming Namechain Uniswap is becoming Unichain MakerDAO will launch Makerchain Aave will launch Aavechain Trading viewpoint: Enhance the practicality of tokens: The launch of the application chain has added new uses to the original application tokens (such as ENS, UNI, MKR, AAVE), such as staking and using them as on-chain gas fees. Inflationary incentives: Many application chains may introduce new token supply to incentivize ecological growth, which will bring annual inflation of tokens, but also provide additional incentives for holders. Token value increase: The new uses and growth catalysts brought by the application chain help to increase the market attention and demand for tokens, expand community support, and thus drive up token prices. For investors, the launch of the application chain is not only an opportunity for value capture, but also a powerful catalyst for price growth.

Chen Jian Jason pointed out that this is a public Alpha test, and the launch time and content were announced in the document half a month ago. The current price has risen from the previous low of 0.23 to 0.35, and the structure is still relatively healthy. Jason believes that investors who hold a large amount of $BB or open contracts should closely monitor this trend and pay attention to latent risks. Trading viewpoint: BounceBit is one of the early projects in the BTC ecosystem, but it has gradually weakened the BTC label and focused on multi-chain asset management such as ETH, Sol, and Sui. This transformation reflects the team's response to the "source of income" problem faced by BTC staking projects. The V2 version introduces the concept of CeDeFi, which not only provides on-chain staking income, but also adds a quantitative arbitrage income model. These assets are held under compliance agencies Mainnet Digital and Ceffu, further enhancing security. The newly added CeDeFi SaaS and BounceClub features, including user-defined AI Agents and PumpFun Meme launcher, bring more application scenarios to $BB and further consolidate its positioning as an asset management platform. Overall view: Chen Jian Jason emphasized that the BounceBit team has strong execution and has been active in product iteration. The team obtains profits through real TVL liquidity, avoiding simple TVL lifting strategies, which has positive significance for the long-term stability of the asset management platform. The current FDV is 700 million, the circulation is 160 million, and the next unlock will be in May next year. There will be no new coins released in the next six months. Investors can evaluate their holding strategies from a long-term perspective. See the original text: https://x.com/jason_chen998/status/1855813095375135215

The Elder Scrolls: Legends is officially shutting down. The game which is also already discontinued on Steam will be accessible to the existing players, on mobile and PC until the announced date. The game was released back in 2017 with Hearthstone as an established strong competitor in the digital card game genre. Therefore Elden Scroll couldn’t attract enough audience even though it was connected to Bethsesda’s infamous RPG franchise. The peak count of active players was 9,000 players in its launch year. However, after that, it saw a continuous decline falling to hundreds by the year 2020. Apparently the reason for its decline is the hold on the game during 2019 without any new updates.

Original source: Tokenomist Original translation: TechFlow 1. Overview of Airdrops and ICOs · Airdrops:Distributing tokens for free, usually to increase brand awareness, reward early users, or connect with the community. · ICO (Initial Coin Offering):A fundraising activity during which projects sell tokens in advance to obtain funds to help them realize their project vision. 2. The impact of airdrops on token supply · Increased circulating supply:Airdrops quickly introduce tokens to the market, often triggering inflationary pressures and market volatility. · Market sentiment:While airdrops can create excitement, a large influx of tokens into the hands of recipients can lead to sudden sell-offs that can affect token prices. Example: Scroll’s recent airdrop initially traded at $1.40, but after recipients claimed and sold tokens, the price dropped to $0.77, a change that reflects the price volatility that is common after airdrops. Through the above analysis, we can see the different roles of airdrops and ICOs in the token market and how they affect token supply and market sentiment. 3. The impact of ICOs on token supply · Controlled release mechanism: ICO tokens are usually distributed gradually, with monthly or quarterly unlocking. While this approach can stabilize supply in the early stages, it can lead to market volatility as early investors sell off. · Demand-driven valuation: Although ICOs generate initial market demand, regular token unlocking can affect prices, sometimes creating downward pressure and thus affecting market sentiment. 4. The main differences in token economics · Locking and unlocking: ICOs usually set a lock-up period to reduce the pressure of early selling, while airdrops rarely take such restrictive measures. Through the above analysis, we can see the unique role of ICOs in token supply and market dynamics, as well as their key differences from airdrops in token economics. · Governance risk:Airdrops distribute tokens to a wide range of users, which makes governance decisions face uncertainty as voting results become more difficult to predict. · Inflation management strategies:Some projects deal with the inflation risk brought about by airdrops through destruction mechanisms or staking incentives, aiming to maintain the value of tokens and encourage users to hold them for the long term.
