Reported by The Block: After launching its testnet in February of this year, Lisk is now live on mainnet.
Lisk’s airdrop campaign will begin on Nov. 21, and its first season will span four months.
The Ethereum Layer 2 network Lisk has launched on mainnet and announced airdrop plans.
Lisk's testnet launched in late February of this year after it transitioned from a Layer 1 to a Layer 2 months prior. In addition to officially launched on mainnet, the platform intends to disseminate 15 million LSK tokens via airdrop.
Lisk's airdrop campaign will begin on Nov. 21, and its first season will span four months. One way users can claim points is by completing tasks on the Lisk platform. Doing so earns them points, and the total points the user earns determines how many LSK tokens they'll receive via airdrop.
"We designed this airdrop campaign to be seamless, engaging, educational and even fun, reflecting our mission to create web3 applications that are easy to use and beneficial,” said Lisk COO Dominic Schwenter in a statement shared with The Block.
Lisk initially launched as a Layer 1 blockchain in 2016. However, it transitioned into an Ethereum Layer 2 in December 2023 to switch gears to real-world assets and decentralized physical infrastructure networks. Lisk is undergirded with Optimism's Layer 2 development framework OP Stack and Gelato's rollup-as-a-service platform, The Block previously reported. The move also transitioned the platform's native token, LSK, to Ethereum.
