Aktivnost na lancu na Optimizmu opada nakon završetka NFT podsticajnog programa

Transaction volumes on Optimism, a scaling solution for Ethereum, have dropped 70% following a major spike earlier. The daily transactions have declined to 238,000 after a peak of almost 800,000 transactions per day on Jan. 12, according to podaci from blockchain explorer Blockscan.

The fall in activity coincided with the end of an incentive program called Optimism traganje, which aimed to increase user engagement and educate users about the Optimism Layer 2 network.

The surge in on-chain activity during Quest was said to have been associated with speculations on a second airdrop by the Optimism team, according to a recent izvještaj od The Block Research.

Airdrop Optimism

U aprilu 2022. Optimizam objavio an airdrop, a free token giveaway for early users, with amounts ranging from $500 to $10,000 per user. The team also mentioned a second, larger airdrop, however no further details were provided.

This sparked speculation among users that completing tasks during the Optimism Quest program, which rewarded participants with non-fungible tokens (NFTs), could make them eligible for the airdrop.

During the Quest program, that lasted for four months, 450,000 wallets minted over 3.4 miliona NFTs after completing tasks involving the use of decentralized apps in the Optimism ecosystem, on-chain data shows. The program was powered by Galxe, an on-chain credentials framework.

A similar NFT program on Optimism’s closest competitor, Arbitrum, called Odiseja, had been instrumental in increasing the amount of activity on the network, also driven by airdrop speculators. However, in Arbitrum’s case, there has so far been no airdrop.

“The uptrend in on-chain activity serves as a reminder that the speculation of a potential airdrop can sometimes be used to boost on-chain activity, just like how the Arbitrum Odyssey had caused a surge in on-chain activity for Arbitrum,” primećeno Arnold Toh, istraživački analitičar u The Blocku.

Despite the decrease in transactions, Optimism’s native token, the OP token, reached an all-time high recently. The token has risen about 150% since the start of the year and currently trgovina at $2.25, according to CoinGeko.
