In that sense the world of stablecoins is typically a lot less “thrilling” to follow in comparison to other coins with a more volatile nature, but lately, things are really heating up when it comes to stablecoins…SO MUCH SO so that people are calling it The Second Great StableCoin War.

GM defiers! Today we’re diving into zkSync Era. This is a zero-knowledge-powered Layer 2 scaling solution for Ethereum from Matter Labs. And it’s attracted over $120M in TVL since launching its public mainnet two months ago.
Matter Labs managed to raise $200M in November during the depths of the bear market, so VCs certainly think that its technology holds promise.
Today, we’re going to use some applications that are live on Era. And if you watch till the end, we’ll walk you through the exact steps to qualify for their ‘potential’ airdrop, so stick around.
