Scroll Co-founder: Big investors who are disappointed with Blast can deposit Scroll, we will not PUA
Ye Zhang, co-founder of Scroll, said in a post on X: "Big investors who are disappointed with Blast can deposit Scroll. Previously, Scroll's Session Zero only required holding assets to accumulate marks. Now it is the Session One stage. You can accumulate marks by participating in the DeFi ecosystem. Those with a lower risk appetite can participate in old DeFi projects such as Aave. Money can be withdrawn at any time, and it will arrive in 30 minutes. The previously accumulated marks will not be deducted. There is no blockage at all. Someone is taking Point PUA, but it does not mean that everyone is PUA."
