Solana-based derivatives protocol Zeta Markets announced the commencement of the Zeta community airdrop, aiming to distribute 1% of the total supply of Z tokens, valued at $10 million, to its supporters and communities within the Solana blockchain ecosystem. This includes contributors from platforms such as Jupiter, Pyth Network, deBridge, Mad Lads, Tensor, AssetDash, and Superteam.

The selection of communities was based on their established product integrations with Zeta Markets or their ongoing strong support for both Zeta Markets and the Solana blockchain ecosystem.

The allocation operates in the form of a competition. Each community has been assigned Z tokens, distributed approximately according to the number of eligible users within their community. These allocations are static and exclusively available to members of the respective communities. To access their allocations, eligible users must declare their affiliation with a particular community and engage in trading activities on Zeta Markets. The amount of Z tokens allocated to users within each community is determined by their Z-Score, which increases with trading activity. The competition commenced today and is scheduled to conclude at 23:59 UTC on May 21st.

At the conclusion of the competition, eligibility for each community will be verified. It’s important to emphasize that users without a Z-Score will not receive an allocation. To be eligible for an allocation, users must join a community and actively trade on Zeta Markets. 

Among the 1% allocation, 0.8% will be directly distributed to traders proportionate to their Z-Score, while the remaining 0.2% has been set aside as a bonus allocation for the top 3 communities. The bonus allocation has been divided, with 1 million tokens awarded to the community ranked first, 670,000 tokens allocated to the second-ranked community, and 330,000 tokens designated for the third-ranked community.
