Scroll (SCR) Tokenomics and Launch Plans Spark Derision Among Community Members

Typically viewed as tickets to life-changing wealth, airdrops in the past often sparked excitement in the crypto community. In recent times, however, this popular crypto practice appears to be losing its luster.

Plans by Scroll to reward users have been met with derision, with many sarcastically sharing a September X post from Scroll co-founder that read: “The first rule of happiness is low expectation.”

In the latest development that highlights a growing disconnect between projects and users in the crypto space, leading Ethereum zero-knowledge rollup Scroll has unveiled plans to reward users with its token, a move that has sparked surprisingly muted enthusiasm.

Scroll users have been promised airdrops since the project’s early days, with many putting in significant effort over the past two years to qualify for a slice of the大な報酬. Now, however, many are expressing disappointment over the project’s tokenomics and launch plans.

Scroll Disappoints Community Members

Scroll has announced plans to reward users with its token. On Tuesday, October 8, the project disclosed that its token, ticker SCR, will be available for users to claim on October 22. The launch will see 10% of the total token supply, or 100 million SCR, become available via Binance Launchpool.

The remaining 90% will be distributed over the next four years, with 7% earmarked for the first round of community airdrops.

However, this seemingly generous airdrop is not as it seems. For one, members have taken issue with the project allocating only 7% of the 1 billion SCR token supply for the first round of community airdrops despite the talk of decentralization.

Compounding the annoyance for many, Scroll has announced plans for a two-day Binance launchpool, giving Binance users a chance to share in 5.اعدة ماليةوية من إجمالي معروض العملات الرقمية. The Binance launchpool move has left users who have spent high fees to interact with the protocol over the past two years and just have a shot at a share of 7% feeling insulted.

فاعلان Binance Launchpool بشكل مفاجئ للغاية ، مما أثار استياء العديد من المستخدمين الذين تفاعلوا مع البروتوكول ودفعوا رسومًا عالية على مدار العامين الماضيين للحصول على فرصة للحصول على 7٪ فقط من الإير دروب.

Finally, Scroll has yet to take a snapshot of eligible users for the airdrop. The project disclosed that it would take this snapshot on October 19, giving more users a chance of getting entry, a move that could potentially reduce the pie for existing users while squeezing out more profit in fees for the project’s developers as more crypto community members jump in.

اليوم ، كشفت سكرول أن لقطة تفاعلات المستخدم المؤهلة لإسقاط العملة لم تؤخذ بعد. كشفت منصة سكرول أنها ستأخذ لقطة تفاعلات المستخدم في 19 أكتوبر ، مما يتيح لمزيد من المستخدمين فرصة الدخول. ومن المحتمل أن يؤدي ذلك إلى تقليل حصة المستخدمين الحاليين مع زيادة رسوم مطوري المشروع حيث ينضم المزيد من أعضاء مجتمع العملات المشفرة.

On the bright side, users can still interact with the Scroll protocol to increase their chances of getting a larger airdrop. Those who have already interacted with the testnet, mainnet bridge, or L2 protocol can check their eligibility on Dune Analytics.

في الوقت نفسه ، لا تزال هناك فرصة للمستخدمين للتفاعل مع بروتوكول سكرول لزيادة حصتهم في الإسقاط. يمكن لأولئك الذين سبق لهم التفاعل مع اختبار الشبكة أو جسر الشبكة الرئيسية أو بروتوكول L2 التحقق من أهليتهم على Dune Analytics.

A Growing Trend of Disappointing Airdrops

Scroll looks set to be the latest in a growing line of disappointing airdrops to come out of the crypto space in recent times. The trend highlights an increasing user and project alignment divide in the Web3 realm.

في الآونة الأخيرة ، يبدو أن خطة منصة سكرول ستكون الأحدث ضمن سلسلة متزايدة من عمليات الإسقاط المخيبة للآمال والتي خرجت من مساحة العملات المشفرة. يسلط الاتجاه الضوء على فجوة متزايدة في المحاذاة بين المستخدمين والمشاريع في عالم Web3.

Earlier this year, NFT marketplace Blur unveiled its long-awaited token, a move that was met with underwhelming enthusiasm from the community. The project’s tokenomics left many feeling like they had wasted their time and effort interacting with the platform.

في وقت سابق من هذا العام ، كشفت منصة Blur NFT النقاب عن عملتها المنتظرة منذ فترة طويلة ، وهي خطوة قوبلت بحماس باهت من المجتمع. جعلت توكنوميكس المشروع الكثيرين يشعرون وكأنهم أضاعوا وقتهم وجهدهم في التفاعل مع المنصة.
