Scroll Launches SCR Token: Rewarding the Community and Decentralizing the Future

Scroll, a leading zero-knowledge rollup for Ethereum, has launched its own token, SCR, to thank its community and build a more decentralized future.

Recognizing the Community’s Efforts

The SCR token will be distributed to Scroll contributors through airdrops and reward programs. The initial airdrop will go to:

  • On-chain activity participants: Those who have actively used the Scroll network.
  • Project builders:
    Developers who have built projects on Scroll.
  • Industry contributors: Technical experts, researchers, open-source developers, and educational data providers.
  • Community organizers: People who have helped build the Scroll community.
  • Hackathon winners: Those who have excelled in Scroll-related hackathons.

Empowering the Community with SCR

Scroll Open, a new program designed to reward innovative builders, will provide grants totaling $100 million. This program aims to foster creativity and support the growth of the Scroll ecosystem.

Scroll’s fast finality technology is a key feature that makes the platform secure and interoperable. This technology, combined with the SCR token, will help drive the network’s resilience and further enhance the token’s utility.

A Decentralized Future

Raza Zaidi, Scroll’s head of growth, emphasized the importance of decentralization: “The launch of SCR embodies the momentum of our protocol’s evolution. This token aims to help decentralize governance while enhancing our technical infrastructure.”

Sandy Peng, co-founder of Scroll, added: “Scroll’s mission is to build a more scalable and secure decentralized world. The launch of SCR is a significant milestone in realizing this vision, as it empowers our community with greater control and rewards their contributions.”

The launch of SCR marks a new chapter for Scroll, where the community will play a key role in driving innovation and growth.
