$5M Unclaimed. 8 Users. What Happened to ZKsync?

Yesterday, the ZKsync team revealed that a compromised admin account had access to around $5 million worth of ZK tokens. According to their statement, these were unclaimed tokens from the ZKsync airdrop.

That got me thinking - why did so many airdropped tokens go unclaimed in the first place? Airdrops are usually meant for users who actively engaged with the ecosystem. So... were these users just not interested in claiming the tokens? Not even for free?

If even the early adopters don’t want them, can we really say they’re worth $5 million?

Digging deeper, I found a tweet by CupoJoseph citing Dune data: only eight wallets used the zkSync bridge over the past week. That’s not just a lack of interest in the token - it’s a broader issue with the entire L2 network. Eight users a week? That’s shockingly low.

And honestly, I doubt ZK is the only altcoin in this boat. Feels like there’s still a lot of air left in the altcoin bubble.

Maybe it’s time to swap those tokens for something people actually use? If you’re thinking the same - rabbit.io is here to help. BTC, USDT, XMR, SOL, and more - all in demand and ready for you.
