ZKSync is a prominent layer2 solution offering faster and better transactions than other networks, including Ethereum. It has earlier shared the details of its <a href="https://coingape.com/trending/zksyncs-zk-airdrop-date-eligibility-and-expectation/">ZK airdrop</a>, which has now become the topic of discussion among crypto investors. Instead of the ZKSync, the users have rephrased the name with ZKscam or ZKSync Scam to present their disappointment with the network. 
In this blog, let us discuss the story behind the ZKscam/ ZKSync Scam. 
<h2 id="how-zk-airdrop-turned-zkscam">How ZK Airdrop Turned ZKscam?</h2> 
On 11 June, ZKSync announced the ZK token airdrop with its community of 7 Million users who have been awaiting this moment for years. The <a href="https://coingape.com/glossary/zk-rollup/">ZK rollup</a>-equipped network has opted for a unique airdrop deal where only 695,232 wallets will receive it, that too under a strict set of eligibility criteria. Under this, every individual needs to interact with at least ten Smart Contract networks, trade at least ten <a href="https://coingape.com/glossary/erc-20/">ERC 20 tokens</a>, have a long-term interaction with the network, and much more.

Even when people are qualifying these metrics, their wallets get rejected due to limitations on approvals. With a community of 7 Million, only a few get the opportunity to participate in this airdrop. The rest call it the ZKscam due to their disappointment in the network.

The investors have chosen the social media platform X (previously known as Twitter) to express their disappointment with tagging ZKscam or ZKSync Scam. These hashtags have been trending for days, and thousands have tweeted about this unfairness. 
A user commented that he qualifies for all the eligibility requirements and has traded over $100,000 on the network, paying more than $100 in gas fees only. He also mentioned his three-year usage of the network with disappointment in this airdrop. 
Many highlighted how the image of this network has shifted from the best L2 solution to ZKSync Scam.
