Recently, Scroll has become the hottest Layer2 ecosystem. A positive piece of news is that Binance announced the launch of Scroll's SCR token in the pre-market, allowing users to trade SCR tokens through Binance before the TGE, and these will be directly exchanged for spot after the SCR airdrop.
The launch of the SCR pre-market on Binance has not only raised the expectations of Scroll ecosystem users but also boosted the market's enthusiasm for the Scroll ecosystem, indicating that the Scroll ecosystem is about to fully launch.
Scroll ecosystem project Pencils Protocol becomes the new focus
Pencils Protocol is the leading project in the Scroll ecosystem, currently maintaining a TVL of around $400 million, making it one of the fastest-growing projects in the DeFi market in terms of single-chain TVL. It is also the third-largest DeFi protocol in terms of total TVL in the Farming track. With the new developments in the token market, Pencils Protocol has become the biggest beneficiary.
In fact, Scroll is attracting an increasing number of active users and liquidity into the chain. With Pencils Protocol gradually launching Staking and Vaults products, it has become the main yield platform in the Scroll ecosystem. The number of active users on the Pencils Protocol has shown significant growth, now surpassing 700,000. Especially with the DAPP token further entering Coinon to tap into the Korean market, Pencils Protocol is once again expanding its reach.
This means that Pencils Protocol is becoming the new unicorn in the Scroll ecosystem, and it is also the largest gathering place for attention value, traffic value, and liquidity within the Scroll ecosystem. This ecosystem is expected to become the most important traffic pool for Scroll ecosystem projects to launch and capture users.
Therefore, with the launch of the Scroll ecosystem, Pencils Protocol ecosystem users may welcome a new round of airdrop benefits.
Pencils Protocol ecosystem users may become airdrop targets
For Scroll ecosystem projects, to capture some early users, there are currently two important traffic pools: one is the large community backed by the Scroll mother ecosystem, and the other is the largest project in the Scroll ecosystem, Pencils Protocol. Thus, we speculate that in the future, holders of SCR tokens, quality interactors, DAPP token holders, and Pencils Protocol users will become the main airdrop targets.
In fact, the Scroll ecosystem is already moving in this direction. Currently, the social project Squad3 has stated that it will provide airdrop rewards to Pencils Protocol users. The specific airdrop rules have not yet been clarified, but as mentioned above, the method will likely involve holding DAPP tokens or using Pencils Protocol. Therefore, after Squad3, many similar projects providing airdrops for Pencils Protocol will emerge.
In addition to Squad3, within the Scroll community, some MEME tokens have also clearly stated that they will provide airdrops to both DAPP token holders and SCR token holders to capture early user attention and liquidity.
Referring to the current development status of the meme market in ecosystems like Solana and Sui, Scroll will also see a surge of high-quality memes.
Thus, holding DAPP and using Pencils Protocol before the SCR TGE is the best defensive strategy, and after SCR is launched, holding both SCR and DAPP may yield better airdrop benefits.
It is foreseeable that the Scroll ecosystem is entering a period of developmental dividends, and Pencils Protocol is becoming the best connection point to capture these dividends.
