LayerZero

LayerZero Labs, the developer of Omnichain, is not the first time that the veDAO Research Institute has introduced it. For more information about LayerZero, please refer to the previous articles of the Research Institute (https://mirror.xyz/0x 901 eA 9 e 4 c 3D 637 C 73 a 368 B 2b CD 0 E 70899 2b aE 49 C/N 2 NdowIYxx 4 rbfVHjy l3 S kUmyS 270 QZcUQDcmestwaw).

Focus on LayerZero Labs’ financing here: In its Series B round, LayerZero Labs raised $135 million from PayPal Ventures, Uniswap Labs, FTX Ventures, Coinbase Ventures, Sequoia Capital, and others. Among them, it is worth noting that LayerZero is the first Web 3 project invested by PayPal. This puts LayerZero on track to be one of the biggest airdrops of the year.

Airdrop situation

Currently, LayerZero has not issued tokens. But looking at LayerZero's info code reveals a token name with the characters "ZRO" in it. This basically confirms LayerZero’s plan to launch tokens; although no official announcement has been made, the LayerZero community also expects that tokens will be launched in the near future.

How to claim the airdrop

LayerZero has not yet opened the airdrop. In addition to following its official news at any time, you can also participate in the governance of projects on LayerZero to obtain more rights or qualifications when the airdrop comes. This includes using all available LayerZero protocols (eg Stargate Finance, Pontem Liquidswap, Aptos Bridge, etc.) on the LayerZero mainnet. Another more important way is to become a DAO member of Stargate Finance.

As the first project on LayerZero, Stargate Finance has become a DAO member of Stargate Finance and is expected to be eligible for the LeyerZero airdrop:

1. Buy STG (Stargate Finance Token) from Uniswap or any platform

2. After the purchase is complete, go to the Stargate Finance official website and open the Stake page (https://stargate.finance/stake)

3. After connecting the wallet on the Stake page, you can pledge STG tokens. After the pledge is successful, you will get voting rights

4. Visit the Stargate DAO interface (https://snapshot.org/#/stgdao.eth), and vote regularly on Stargate DAO governance proposals after joining.

Sui has received significant funding and support from Coinbase Ventures, Binance Labs, Apollo, Circle, and many others, raising $300 million in Series B funding. Sui Network launched the testnet on November 17, 2022, and plans to launch the mainnet in the first quarter of 2023.

Sui has released the token economics of its native token SUI, and the issuance of SUI Token is likely to be synchronized with the launch of its mainnet. As the network is still in the testnet phase and is about to launch, early users who interact with the network may be eligible for a potential airdrop.
