Just checked the zksync airdrop numbers from back in June 2024 and honestly pretty wild how it went down. Over 2.62 billion tokens got claimed in like the first 10 hours, worth around $630M at launch. But here's the thing - the price tanked 27% right after, dropped from 30 cents to like 23 cents. Kinda typical airdrop behavior I guess.
What caught my attention though is how people handled it differently. About 37% of the top recipients just dumped everything immediately, while another 33% held the full bag. Shows you how split the community was on whether this thing had legs or not. Some whales like 0x663 offloaded millions of tokens, which probably contributed to the dump.
The whole thing wasn't smooth though - network got congested, people were waiting 20+ minutes just to claim their tokens. Even some exchanges had issues processing withdrawals. But looking at it now from 2026, the zksync airdrop still represents one of the biggest token distributions ever, giving out 17.5% of total supply to early users and contributors. Current price sitting way lower at around $0.02 with market cap around $160M, but that's how these things go. You in on it back then or did you miss it?
