Coinspeaker Scroll Launches SCR Token for Decentralized Governance, Now Live on Major Exchanges

Scroll announced the launch of its native token SCR today. The platform is a leading zero-knowledge rollup for Ethereum. Its SRC token is set to decentralize decision-making and reward its global community of contributors. The token has started trading on top crypto exchanges.

The SCR token allows users to participate in Scroll’s governance, lending their voice on critical issues that could shape the platform’s future. This is part of Scroll’s broader effort to move away from centralized control and build a truly decentralized ecosystem.

The developers have set aside $100 million for distribution to reward users and foster innovations within the Scroll community. These rewards will go to people who have supported the platform — whether through developing projects, participating in on-chain activities, or contributing to technical advancements. The first round of airdrops will include participants such as developers, hackathon winners, and community organizers.

Innovative Funding Initiatives: Scroll Open and the $100 Million Allocation

Scroll is also launching Scroll Open, a program that provides retroactive grants to builders who create innovative projects on the platform. The goal is to foster creativity and growth within the Scroll ecosystem by supporting the most impactful work with grants of a potential allocation size of $100 million.

The combination of SCR and Scroll Open shows Scroll’s commitment to creating a vibrant community of innovators and developers, ensuring that contributions to the platform are recognized and rewarded.

“The launch of $SCR embodies the momentum of our protocol’s evolution. This token aims to help decentralize governance while enhancing our technical infrastructure. Our commitment to a fully decentralized ecosystem ensures that $SCR will play a critical role in driving the future growth and resilience of our platform.”
