Register Manually For ZRO Airdrop; Says LayerZero Foundation

On June 19, LayerZero Foundation finally released the ZRO airdrop details including eligibility criteria and registration date. The omnichain interoperability protocol recommended manual registrations amid the use of bots for system misuse. June 20, 2024, was set as the final deadline for the registration. 

LayerZero Foundation’s Airdrop on the Way

LayerZero Foundation shared the upcoming ZRO airdrop details over X. An eligibility checker was provided to check the eligibility for the airdrop. June 20 is the deadline for registration.

To make the process more transparent and effortless, the platform recommended the community to go for manual registration. LayerZero Foundation’s team noticed that many people are abusing the system and misusing bots to impact the system. 

Bryan Pellegrino, LayerZero Foundation’s CEO, shared details on the eligibility criteria.       

Bryan Pellegrino’s Thoughts on Token Allocation 

According to Pellegrino, approximately 1.28 Million wallets are eligible for the airdrop. The token has a total supply of 1 Billion, out of which 23.8% was reserved for the community and builders.

On June 15, Pellegrino shared the airdrop details over X. In the first cycle, 8.5% of the allotted tokens (5% core, 3% RFP, 0.5% community pool) will be distributed and the remaining are planned for the next 36 months. 

“The majority of the remainder will be given over the next 36 months with additional retroactive distribution every 12 months, along with some forward-looking RFPs for builders.”, added Pellegrino.  

Furthermore, Pellegrino seconded on use of bots for misusing the system. The platform tried its hardest to resolve the issue and suggested making manual registrations after the final check. Moreover, the CEO also ensured more details on the ongoing process soon.
