✨ Hint About the Airdrop:
On May 10th, 2023 the co-founder of $MATIC and founder of @0xPolygonlabs, Sandeep Nailwal, said something like this on his tweet : 👇

Directly referring to $MATIC as it is already established, there is no rule that prevents them from conducting a massive airdrop. Does this mean they would distribute MATIC tokens through the airdrop? Well, perhaps, but the likelihood is low. They could create a separate token for the airdrop instead. Nevertheless, regardless of the approach they take, we must follow these steps to potentially qualify for an airdrop if they choose to conduct one:
But, before starting this article let's learn what Polygon zkEvm really is:
✨ Introduction to Polygon zkEVM:

Polygon zkEVM is a new zk-rollup that provides Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) equivalence (opcode-level compatibility) for a transparent user experience and existing Ethereum ecosystem and tooling compatibility.
It consists on a decentralized Ethereum Layer 2 scalability solution utilising cryptographic zero-knowledge technology to provide validation and fast finality of off-chain transaction computations.
--------------------------------------------------------------------
🧵 Things required to qualify :
💵 Cost: $100 ( fees - $20-30, rest you can save don't worry )
⏰ Time: 30 Mins
--------------------------------------------------------------------
👉 Steps to qualify :
1/ Bridging to the Polygon zkEVM Network :
Now there's many ways you can bridge to this network 👇
a/ Using the Main Polygon zkEVM Bridge : 👇

The current fees here are over $10. You can either use it now or wait for them to potentially decrease to around $5-6. Remember: Using the Main bridge could be one of the criteria
👉 Alternative Method:
You can utilize these two bridges, which are significantly more cost-effective. They will only incur a cost of approximately $1 or even less. Simply bridge from chains such as Arbitrum or Optimism to achieve this:
a) Orbiter Finance:
From - Arbitrum or Optimism for the lowest fees
To - Polygon zkEVM
Enter the desired "Amount"
Click on "Transfer," and you're done

See the fees ( Not even $1 )

b) LayerSwap :
From - Arbitrum or Optimism for the lowest fees
To - Polygon zkEVM
Enter the desired "Amount," then select the Polygon zkEVM address (add your address)
Click on "Transfer," and you're done.
(You can expect similar fees as Orbiter.)

2/ Use these DEXs :
a) Quickswap DEX :
Go to Swap :
Swap from "ETH" to "USDC"
Enter "Amount"
Click "Swap"
Now do it from "USDC" to "ETH" now to increase transactions & volume.
Do it 3-4 Times

Provide LP :
Go to "Pools" on the website
Provide ETH/USDC Liquidity ( Any amount is fine )
See the image below 👇

b) Antfarm Dex :
Go to Swap :
We need $2 worth of ATF to do trading on this platform
Buy ATF from the swap
Click "Swap"
Once we got our ATF, let's do ETH to USDC swap again.
Do it 3-4 Times

c) Satori Finance :
Here you can long and short coins like ETH, BTC, MATIC:
Long or Short any coin for $1-2.
Close the position in no time, this is done to increase transactions
( Right now I think only those who filled their e-mail early can only use it ) 👇

✨ BONUS: INCREASE TRANSACTIONS FOR 3 AIRDROPS BY ONE TRADE :
Through this single transaction, you can increase your airdrop potential and transaction count on zkSync, LayerZero, and polygon zkEVM. If you're unsure about how to qualify for zkSync and LayerZero, you can find more information here:
zkSync: https://www.binance.com/en-IN/feed/post/697040
LayerZero: https://www.binance.com/en-IN/feed/post/709385
👉 Now let's see how we can increase our transactions on all these networks through this trade:
Go to Merkly.
Mint an NFT.
After minting, it's time to bridge.
Select the 'from' chain as 'Polygon zkEVM' and the 'to' chain as 'zkSync,' or vice versa.
Since this chain is powered by LayerZero, your LayerZero transaction will also be counted.
This will result in an increase in transactions on all three chains through a single trade."
