Vest

What is Vest?

Vest is a decentralized perpetual futures exchange built on zkSync, a zero-knowledge (ZK) rollup built on Ethereum. Users can trade a wide range of digital assets on Vest, while liquidity providers (LPs) can provide capital in the form of USDC to earn yield.

Vest airdrop details

Vest received an allocation of 2,452,128 ZK tokens, and have airdropped 400K ZK tokens to Mainnet Alpha users. Continue to interact with Vest to receive the remaining ZK allocation in the future.

Step-by-Step Guide:

How to join Vest airdrop?

  1. Visit the Vest exchange and click on “Start Trading.”
  2. Connect your wallet.
  3. You’ll need some USDC to start trading, as well as a small amount of ETH on zkSync to cover transaction fees.
  4. Click on “Deposit,” enter the amount in USDC, and approve the transactions.
  5. Perform trades on a regular basis.
  6. Deposit some USDC as liquidity by going to the “Liquidity Providing” page.
  7. Vest has airdropped 400K ZK tokens to Mainnet Alpha users out of the 2.45M ZK airdrop allocation. Therefore, 2M ZK allocation to the community is still remaining. Check the announcement.
  8. Vest launched Phase Two on July 25th, with all users being rewarded for trading or providing liquidity.
  9. Early users in this phase and following phases could potentially receive ZK tokens and VEST tokens. However, the team has no public plans for a token, so it’s more likely to be some of the ZK allocation they received.
  10. Phase Three will be a series of quests called “Vest Quest,” which is coming soon, as well as a Phase Four.
  11. Turn on notifications for Vest’s X account for further updates.
