First steps towards decentralization

#Scroll Network has taken its first step towards decentralization. It has announced the launch of #scr Token. Its vision is to provide access to a global distributed network of applications and services to everyone, everywhere. To further its global mission, the SCR token has been successfully listed on the #بينانس platform as a pre-market listing.

About the launch of SCR coin

Currency name: Scroll (SCR)

Total supply of the currency: 1,000,000,000 SCR

Airdrop shot date: October 19, 2024

Coin launch date and airdrop claim availability: October 22, 2024

Airdrops - 15%

We believe Scroll has the potential to become the world’s most widely distributed and community-focused airdrop. In line with this mission and our increased accountability, we are distributing meaningful ownership to the community. We are allocating 7% of the total token supply to our first airdrop, and will reserve 8% of the total token supply for future airdrops, which are scheduled to take place over the next 12-18 months.

The primary goals of the first airdrop are to reward on-chain users who have been actively engaged in the Scroll ecosystem as well as to thank the Scroll research community, open source contributors, educational institutions, and public institutions who have made meaningful contributions to the development of the Scroll protocol and the growth of the community and ecosystem.

Why currency? Why now?

“We are ready for the next chapter of Scroll — building a scalable and secure infrastructure and driving real-world adoption with global distribution,” the project team says. “SCR plays a critical role in achieving this mission, particularly with regard to the core protocol design and long-term sustainability of the Scroll ecosystem.”

The Scroll Network allows for the decentralization of Scroll governance, testing, and serialization tools into the project’s development roadmap, thus playing a critical long-term role in the design of the core Scroll protocol. Importantly, SCR opens up new design spaces and unlocks features that can improve the user experience as well as transform all Scroll users into owners and custodians of the Scroll protocol.

SCR Benefit and Value

SCR will be used as the core governance mechanism for the protocol and progress to become a protocol utility token as Scroll becomes increasingly decentralized.

There are three valuable rights to designing aggregation protocol that need to be decentralized, and here's how SCR can participate in each of them.

Right to governance.

Scroll will first decentralize governance via the Scroll DAO. It is essential that we distribute this power across the community, to ensure that the Scroll network is resistant to being taken over by any central entity.

Proof of truth.

Once governance is sufficiently decentralized, our own proofer is the next step. For long-term sustainability, the protocol must be designed to incentivize third parties to run proofers and optimize the performance of proofers for optimal performance. SCR will participate in aligning the mining community and creating a robust proofer network.

Correct sequence.

Once the network of validators is built and tested, Scroll will decentralize the chain. The chaining device will order transactions and produce layer 2 blocks, which requires high guarantees of liveness and resistance to real-time censorship. SCR will be an integral part of the design of the relevant mechanism, ensuring that chaining devices provide final guarantees for an optimal user experience.

Additionally, there are broader use cases where SCR can have a significant impact on community alignment, ecosystem projects, and contributors. We will share more about our research directions as we build toward providing the most robust and easy-to-use aggregation experience for our global community.
