The biggest airdrop event of 2025 is here! OpenZK will officially launch the airdrop points activity on February 23, with an airdrop amount of up to $100 million, accounting for 10% of the total tokens. As the largest-scale open airdrop this year, OpenZK is led by the hundred-billion-dollar market cap Animoca, and is the first two-layer network with staking. Even more exciting is that early participants can receive 10 times the additional airdrop points reward, and the activity will last until March 16.
Strong investment background and founding team
The appeal of OpenZK lies not only in its huge airdrop rewards, but also in the top-tier investment and strong team support behind it. The project is led by Animoca, the largest venture capital firm in Asia, with many top-tier VCs participating, and the market value is expected to exceed $1 billion. Therefore, the 10% token airdrop is extremely valuable, and each participant has the potential to receive tens of thousands of dollars in airdrop rewards.
The founder of OpenZK, Dave Sandor, was previously an executive director at Goldman Sachs Asia Pacific and has deep influence in the financial circle. Prior to that, Dave also held senior positions at Morgan Stanley, Standard Chartered Bank and Citibank, with over 10 years of investment banking experience. In addition, OpenZK's co-founder and CTO, Lucas Cullen, is a veteran in the Australian blockchain field, and has won awards at the Consensys New York Hackathon on Ethereum, and has been actively involved in blockchain technology research and teaching.
Technological innovation: L2 scaling and ETH staking dual breakthrough
OpenZK also has highlights in technological innovation. It not only solves the scaling problem of the Ethereum network through ZK technology, but also innovatively embeds ETH staking and re-staking functions into the L2 network. This not only improves transaction efficiency and reduces transaction fees, but also provides passive income for users. This innovative mechanism that combines ETH staking, re-staking and RWA stablecoin yield, makes OpenZK technologically ahead of its peers, while solving the problem of homogenization and lack of practical application in existing L2 projects.
Furthermore, the OpenZK team is developing a dual Gas fee architecture, which in the future will allow the use of native tokens to pay network fees in addition to ETH, a feature that is unprecedented in Ethereum L2, greatly increasing the usage frequency of native tokens.
Airdrop activity rules: points acquisition mechanism and reward multipliers
The OpenZK airdrop points system will go live at 3pm on February 23. Early participants will receive a permanent 10x airdrop points reward, with the only requirement being participation before March 16. In addition, the acquisition of airdrop points will be based on the following formula:
Airdrop points = Staked token value × Staking duration × Points multiplier
For example, if participants stake ETH or stablecoins and enjoy the "Early Bird" reward, their points earned will be 10 times that of others. In addition to the Early Bird reward, participants can also increase the points multiplier by following the project's social media, staking for a week, etc., with a maximum of 20x points reward.
Furthermore, inviting friends to participate in the airdrop activity can also earn additional multiplier rewards, and the points earned by the invited friends will also be converted into rewards for the inviter, a mechanism that allows participants to earn more airdrop points through social networks.
Airdrop potential value: Potential earnings for each participant
Assuming OpenZK's market cap is $1 billion, the 10% airdrop tokens would be $100 million. If the total staked amount (TVL) of participating users reaches $50 million, then for every $1 invested, the participant may receive a 2x reward. According to the founder's previous speech, OpenZK plans to complete the TGE (token generation event) before the Ethereum Paris upgrade, i.e. in March. Therefore, participants may be able to reap significant airdrop returns in just one month, with a potential annualized return of 24x.
The OpenZK airdrop event is about to heat up, with a bright future
OpenZK not only has strong technological innovation and top-tier investment background, but also provides users with huge airdrop opportunities. With the launch of the airdrop activity on February 23 and the potential exchange listing by the end of March, the future potential of OpenZK is immense. This project is one of the most worth-watching investment opportunities in the blockchain field in 2025, and participants should not miss it.
