To increase your eligibility for LayerZero Airdrop, you can use LayerZero supported bridges, DEXs and lending protocols while staying up to date via Discord of the protocol.
What is LayerZero?
LayerZero is an omnichain interoperability protocol that allows cross-chain messages to pass through the new Relayer and Oracle architectures. The advancement of blockchain technology has led to the building of multiple blockchains. In addition to the market leader Ethereum, Avalanche, Solana, Polygon, BNB Chain etc. and many other chains are attracting market volume through their respective development efforts.
However, this phenomenon has led to liquidity fragmentation, with activities in each chain being siled up within their own ecosystems. This compromises the user experience (UX) that gets stuck on certain chains and has difficulties accessing applications on other chains.
LayerZero steps in to provide a solution to the above problems. It is an interoperable solution built to connect disparate blockchains. With the Relayer and Oracle model, LayerZero can accurately verify the cross-chain transactions that occur.
With investors including a16z, Sequoia, Tiger Global, Coinbase Ventures, and more, LayerZero’s interest so far has been overwhelming. The team has managed to raise $120 million at a $3 billion valuation, which has helped it attract a lot of attention and build partnerships. Currently, partnerships have also been established with leading protocols such as Uniswap, TraderJoe, Radiant Capital and more.
Similar to most decentralized protocols, the LayerZero token airdrop has the potential to be deployed sometime in the future. There are some steps you can take to get the airdrop.
How to Get LayerZero Airdrop?
The team has yet to release the official announcement of any ZRO Airdrops. However, there are a number of protocols we can interact with to increase our chances of receiving a ZRO Airdrop. When you look back at previous Airdrops like Optimism, Arbitrum, and Aptos, you’ll see that a high level of interaction with protocols built on LayerZero is likely to increase your chances of qualifying for an Airdrop. We have compiled 4 different methods for you to increase the possibility of receiving airdrops…
1. Join Discord
Start by going to “https://discord-layerzero.netlify.app/discord” and clicking on “I am not a robot”.
Then click ‘Join’.
If another screen with the ‘Join’ button does not load, you can click ‘I’m not a robot’ to refresh the page and start again.
Click ‘Accept Invite’ to enter the Discord channel. Don’t forget to verify your account and interact on ‘public’ / ‘gm’ channels.
Being an active community member is often a criterion for qualifying for airdrops. Activity level can be monitored in various ways via Discord; the most common will be the amount of interaction a user has with other community members, measured by the number of messages sent directly in the group. Another method would be for Discord community moderators to identify some accounts that are actively contributing by answering questions and helping new community members join.
This helps build a solid community by encouraging users to actively participate in the community; this is often a crucial factor in the success of the protocol, as the use of protocols will largely depend on their community.
2. Use Stargate
Stargate is the first and core decentralized application developed by LayerZero that allows bridging assets between different chains using LayerZero technology. It is also currently the largest dApp in terms of total locked value of over $400 million.
- Combine assets with Stargate Transfer at https://stargate.finance/transfer.
- Under “Sender”: Select the token in your wallet and the network for that token.
- Under ‘To’: Select the token you want to exchange and the network you want to bridge.
- Under “Total Amount”: Enter the amount of assets you want to bridge.
- Once the above details are entered, click ‘Export’.
Make sure you have enough ETH in your wallet to use as gas. If the throttle is too high, you may want to consider bridging later.
Provide Liquidity with Stargate Pool at https://stargate.finance/pool.
Once you link your wallet, the platform will show you the pools available for you to deposit liquidity based on the assets in your wallet. Other than that, you can click ‘Best Pools’ to discover high-yielding pools.
Click on a specific available repository and you will see the interface below. Enter the amount of tokens you want to liquidate and click ‘Add’.
To remove liquidity, go to ‘Your Pools’, click on the relevant pool and switch to ‘Remove’.
When you deposit into a pool, you will receive an LP token. It is also recommended to stake this LP token to the farm to earn additional rewards.
Use LiquidSwap by Pontem Network
LiquidSwap allows users to connect their assets to other networks via Aptos using LayerZero technology.
- Go to https://bridge.liquidswap.com/.
- Connect wallets for both networks. In this case, MetaMask for the Ethereum network and Martian Wallet for the Aptos network are connected.
- Select the coin to be bridged over.
- Select the coin you want to buy.
- Select the network you want to bridge.
- Enter the amount of coins to bridge.
- Click ‘Transfer’.
Use Aptos Bridge from LayerZero
Aptos Bridge allows users to connect assets to other networks through Aptos using LayerZero technology.
