With the development of Ethereum Layer 2 technology, Linea, as an Ethereum Layer 2 network based on zkEVM, is quickly becoming the focus of the Web3 community. Supported by Consensys, Linea not only has a strong technical and financial background but is also about to launch the LINEA token Airdrop. By participating in Linea’s official tasks and events, users can earn LXP and LXP-L points, which will be used for future airdrop distribution and are a preparatory step for acquiring tokens. This article will detail what Linea is, how to earn LXP and LXP-L, and the specific process for participating in the airdrop.
What is Linea
Linea (formerly known as Consensys zkEVM) is an Ethereum zk-rollup Layer 2 network developed by Web3 giant Consensys. Linea utilizes zero-knowledge proof technology (zkEVM) to enhance transaction efficiency and scalability while maintaining the security and compatibility of Ethereum.
- Mainnet launch date: July 11, 2023
- TVL ranking: According to DefiLlama, Linea is currently the sixth largest Ethereum L2
- Funding support: Consensys has raised over $725 million to directly support the development of the Linea ecosystem.
The Linea Airdrop will become an opportunity for users to participate directly, especially for early supporters and active community members, who may receive generous rewards.
LXP and LXP-L Points System
The Linea Airdrop distributes points through the Linea Voyage project, mainly divided into two categories:
- LXP (Linea XP Points)
- Earned by participating in decentralized application (dApps) activities within the ecosystem
- Points are non-transferable soul-bound tokens, used to record user contributions to the ecosystem
- Reward activities are based on user activity and participation
- LXP-L (Linea Liquidity Points)
- Earned by providing liquidity on Linea
- Aimed at rewarding contributions to liquidity building in the ecosystem
- Calculated independently from LXP, ensuring that the two types of contributions do not dilute each other
LXP points will be used to allocate tokens in the first round Airdrop, while the Airdrop allocation of LXP-L will be determined later by the Linea Consortium.
How to Earn LXP
Step 0.5: Bridge Funds to Linea
Before participating in the LXP event, you need to bridge your funds to the Linea network:
- Official Bridge: Visit https://bridge.linea.build/, select Linea Native Bridge, enter the amount and sign the transaction
- Bridge Aggregator Jumper: Access https://jumper.exchange/, select Linea as the target chain, and choose the appropriate route to complete the bridging
Step 1: Complete Proof of Humanity - Visit https://poh.linea.build/, connect wallet
- Verification Completed: Group A completed 1 item, Group B completed 2 items
- After completion, users are recognized as having a real identity and can participate in subsequent tasks
Step 2: Participate in Linea Voyage - Browse the Linea event page and participate in ecosystem tasks to earn LXP
- Activities include using dApps, providing liquidity, or completing special tasks
- For example, the previous Culture Szn event allowed for a maximum of 515 LXP by minting NFTs daily
Step 3: Earn LXP-L - Provide liquidity in protocols supported by Linea
- Points are calculated based on contribution and continuously recorded in the user account
- The Surge project settles points every 6 months (Volt) or when TVL reaches $3 billion
Airdrop and Token Distribution
- LINEA total token supply: 72 billion
- Initial airdrop distribution: 7.2 billion (10%)
- TGE daily circulation: approximately 15.8 billion (22%)
- LXP holders distribution: 9% of the initial airdrop
- Strategic partnerships and dApps: 1% of the initial airdrop
This means that users who actively participate in the LXP activities will directly benefit from the token Airdrop, while the allocation of LXP-L will be decided by the Linea Consortium later.
Summary
The Linea Airdrop provides Web3 users with an unprecedented opportunity to earn LXP and LXP-L points through Linea Voyage, allowing them to get a head start on future LINEA tokens. Users only need to bridge funds to Linea, complete identity verification, participate in ecological activities, and provide liquidity to qualify for the airdrop.
With the development of Layer 2 technology and zkEVM, Linea not only provides solutions for Ethereum scalability but also offers generous rewards for community contributors. Participating in the Linea Airdrop is not only an opportunity to obtain tokens but also a way to join the future construction of the Ethereum ecosystem.
