Some of the features of zkSync 2.0 include being EVM and web3 compatible, supporting Solidity and Vyper, more streamlined porting, and lower gas fees, among other things. Currently, users can trade on zkSync on the alpha testnet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There has been some discussion on social media as to whether there will be an airdrop for a native token. The zkSynch tokenomics page online says that there will be a native token, so it\u2019s clear that there will be an asset that users can trade with.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img width=\"886\" height=\"473\" src=\"https:\/\/en.ethereumworldnews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/token.png\" alt=\"zkSync FAQ\" class=\"wp-image-577636\" srcset=\"https:\/\/en.ethereumworldnews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/token.png 886w, https:\/\/en.ethereumworldnews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/token-300x160.png 300w, https:\/\/en.ethereumworldnews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/token-770x411.png 770w, https:\/\/en.ethereumworldnews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/token-269x144.png 269w, https:\/\/en.ethereumworldnews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/token-746x398.png 746w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 886px) 100vw, 886px\" title=\"\"><figcaption>The team confirming a token on its FAQ page: <a href=\"https:\/\/docs.zksync.io\/userdocs\/faq\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">zkSync<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>However, what\u2019s unclear is whether there will be an airdrop to accompany the developments. Crypto analysts and enthusiasts have been speculating in the affirmative regarding this, saying that wallets that remained active during previous phases of zkSynch are eligible for the airdrop.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Nevertheless, that remains speculation, though it isn\u2019t out of the realm of possibility. A token would certainly gain the attention of the crypto market and could do very well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2>How Would Users Be Eligible for zkSync Airdrops?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>There are several protocols that have been built on top of zkSync, which might make users eligible for the potential airdrop. The community is speculating that a snapshot could be taken that would keep a record of all the users who have been active on the network.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed aligncenter is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">3\/10<br><br>Who will get the airdrop?
