ZkSync is a layer 2 scaling solution for Ethereum, which offers low gas costs and fast transactions without sacrificing security.
Additions : reliable protocol created @the_matter_labs, for scalable low-cost payments in Ethereum based on technology zk-rollup.
The network boasts:
• Low consumption
• High security and speed
• Censorship resistance
• Seamless asset transfer.
zkSync BACKERS:
ZkSync is one of the most actively supported projects in crypto, having raised over $450 million from companies such as a16z, Dragonfly, light speed and others.
WILL THE TOKEN $ZKS ? (AND WHEN)
Alex Gluchowski, CEO of Matter Labs, said that “there are no plans to launch the token yet.” Adding that “the team is focused on today’s launch and further development of the protocol. The token only comes into play with the decentralization of the network.”
Conclusion: His comments remind us of the Arbitrum situation in the early days. This is the roadmap they followed: Focus on development > Engage developers > Engage users > Launch the token as soon as the network gains momentum and hype.
Why will tokens be given as an airdrop? The L2 space is extremely competitive. Every new project wants a piece of the pie. And an easy way to get that is to incentivize users to use their products with tokens. Done right, it can lead to increased network traffic, volume, buzz, and awareness.
Additions : Fortunately, zkSync has the advantage that it can track the effectiveness of airdrops optimism And Arbitrum. They can evaluate what they did well and what they failed at to maximize their own token launch.
ZKSync networks:
To avoid confusion, zkSync now has 2 networks:
• zkSync 1.0 (now called zkSync Lite)
• zkSync 2.0 (now called zkSync Era)
Both will operate simultaneously as two separate networks. First, let's focus on the main Era network - since it's probably the most important one.
Add ZkSync Era network:
- Go to ChainList and connect metamask:
- In the search, enter ZkSync.
- Choose ZkSync Era Mainnet and press Add to Metamask.
Translation of $ETH to ZkSync Era
To transfer $ETH, you will first need ETH online ERC20. After replenishment, go to official bridge ZkSync Era and transfer our funds. (The deposit accrual passes quickly, up to 5 minutes, but the withdrawal from zkSync Era up to 24 hours, so do not be alarmed if the money does not immediately come to ERC20 when withdrawing).
Syncswap:
- move on Link to Syncswap and connect the wallet
- network choose zkSync Era mainnet
- select a trading pair, enter the amount and click swap
- go to tab pool and throw USDC, we definitely do Approve.
- We do not pay attention to commissions, since most of them come back.
- withdraw part or all of your funds through the section withdraw :
zkns.domains
- move on link, connect the wallet and in the search write the desired domain, which is free
- press the button "Request to register with ETH and confirm the transaction
Mute :
- move on linksand go to the tab Swap
- connect the wallet and select a trading pair. This person already has the token DEX, so we make more reference to syncswap. But Mute another smart contract and it will only be + for us, as was the case Arbitrum.
- go to tab pool and create or already throw into a trading pair that already exists.
- the project has its own DAO, to which you can delegate tokens for a certain period Mute, for this buy tokens MUTE and go to DAO tab.
Crew3 (Zealy) ZkSync :
The project currently has official Crew3, but unfortunately, tasks are very rarely completed, if you have not completed them yet, then go to the new version Crew3 (Zealy) and complete tasks + get roles in Discord.

layer3
We all know the site layer3 already adds tasks to the network in full ZkSync Era, we all remember how this platform warms up the wallet + helps with the drop ( Arbitrum is an example ) + y project layer3 there will also be a token in the future.
SpaceFi
- move on link and connect MM (carefully watch the network)
- perform swap, pool (we take part or the entire amount from the pool) and if you wish, you can throw it in farm.
Orbiter finance
For now best bridge, with which you can work and an assistant in obtaining future drops + do not forget that orbiter announced a token and soon the team will please its regular users. Let's move on linkse and transfer from various networks to zkSync and back.
(on orbiter there is a zkSync Lite + ZkSync Era network, so do not forget to use two networks)
mintsquare
NFT marketplace, one of the best and working at the moment. In this case, we will create NFTs + if you wish, you can trade various collections that are already on the network zkSync.
- move on link and press the button mint.
- press the button collection and trade at will NFTs collections, thereby increasing the number of transactions + turnover in the network zkSync Era.
Conclusion:
These are the main decentralized applications on the main network zkSync Era right now, but many new decentralized applications will be launched in the near future. For a complete list, you can look at link ( zkSync ecosystem )+ go to our HareCrypta Chat where every day, we discuss various projects and help each other.
